Every person I know was excited at the prospect of a movie about one of the most loved characters… Continue reading Solo: A Star Wars Story Review

On Chesil Beach Review
by Ian Morton Capturing a convincing relationship for the big screen can often be one of the hardest things for filmmakers to achieve. Held to ransom by both script and performance, movies that chart the course of ‘love’s long journey’ often swing between modern-day drama and b-movie rom-com territories.

Based loosely on the origin story from the 2013 video game, the narrative follows Lara Croft… Continue reading Tomb Raider Review

Red Sparrow Review
by Ian Morton The current assassin-centric, espionage thriller genre (quite the mouthful) has seen somewhat of a revival over the last few years.
