Comedy Movie #26 2023: Step Brothers (2008) 30 Mar 202328 Mar 2023 To be honest, it's kind of more fun when the Oscars are over. It gives me free reign to watch any movie from any year in any genre. The kinds…
Comedy… Movie #21 2023: Roald Dahl’s Matilda the Musical (2022) 20 Mar 202320 Mar 2023 There truly has been a lot of musical-to-film adapting in recent times, hasn't there? In the last few years alone we've had The Prom, Everyone's Talking About Jamie, Tick, Tick...…
Action… Movie #18 2023: Saving Private Ryan (1998) 10 Mar 20236 Mar 2023 Yeeeeeah, so I may have seen The Fabelmans and decided that I'd not seen enough Spielberg films. It's funny really, because I've actually seen about half of his filmography, from…
Biographical… Movie #16 2023: The Fabelmans (2022) 6 Mar 20233 Mar 2023 Here's the thing with Steven Spielberg: even his worst films are still pretty good. I loved The Terminal, I even liked Ready Player One, and I know some of his…

Art House… Movie #13 2023: TÁR (2022) 28 Feb 202327 Feb 2023 Some loved it, some hated it. I'm actually going to side with the former on this occasion in that Tár is probably one of my favourite 'First Watches' of the…
Animation… Movie #10 2023: Guillermo del Toro’s Pinocchio (2022) 22 Feb 202322 Feb 2023 The Best Animated Feature Film nominations are truly insane this year. Usually, it's a category that has one clear frontrunner with one dark horse following it, with the others often…
Uncategorized Movie #9 2023: Avatar (2009) 19 Feb 202315 Feb 2023 Everyone already knows about Avatar at this point. Everyone knows the fact that it is still the highest grossing film of all time, even now. Everyone knows that its new…
Classics… Movie #6 2023: Thelma & Louise (1991) 9 Feb 20236 Feb 2023 Yes, I know I'm supposed to be getting through the Oscar nominees. But in my defence, Thelma & Louise was on terrestrial TV last week and it felt rude not…
