MOVIE REVIEWS
Now showing around town… maybe streaming.
This is ‘Happening’
It would be really nice not to say a movie like Happening was ‘timely.’
An ‘Affair’ to Remember
Strap in: MIRROR is in a movie. Also, Mama’s Affair is Kearen Pang’s solid follow-up to her impressive debut.
Pet Project
DC League of Super-Pets is slightly cyncial but suitably time-wasting. Plus Keanu!
Off the Rails
YOU WILL LIKE IT, AND IF YOU FIGHT IT BULLET TRAIN WILL BLUDGEON YOU UNTIL YOU DO!
The Horror!
Vietnamese Horror Story is more curiosity than creepshow, no matter what đ53 billion says.
Fantasy ‘Man’
If rom-coms only interest you if they’re a little off, then I’m Your Man’s for you.
Lucky Seven?
Septet is Johnnie To’s labour of love letter to Hong Kong, but some of the notes are nasty.
No Sacred Cows
Ballad of a White Cow is bleak, angry, infuriating and capped by a tiny victory.
Thunderstruck
Thor: Love and Thunder is Thor: Ragnarok on speed, and you will crash afterwards.
Personal ‘Convictions’
Prior Convictions makes the jump to cinemas but maybe should have stayed on TV.
By the Numbers
Chris Pine and Ben Foster reunite for a military drama with lots on its mind but no stomach to voice it.
