Drama… Movie #362 2020: Vicky Cristina Barcelona (2008) 28 Dec 202029 Dec 2020 To begin, let it be known that this is the furthest from a 'festive movie' as you could possibly get. The Texas Chainsaw Massacre is arguably more festive than this…
Action… Movie #361 2020: Now You See Me (2013) 27 Dec 202029 Dec 2020 I suppose you could label this movie 'Films to Watch Over Christmas With Your Teenage Kids'. It's not 'childish' enough for them to not want to watch it, and it's…
Action… Movie #360 2020: Speed (1994) 26 Dec 202029 Dec 2020 Well, that's Christmas over and done with. I do hope you all had a lovely day considering the circumstances. Does that mean the end of the Christmas film at The…
christmas… Movie #359 2020: Scrooged (1988) 24 Dec 202029 Dec 2020 Here it is: the night before the big day. Well, in the UK it's actually a small day this year, due to the government telling us we could have 5…
Documentary… Movie #358 2020: Icarus (2017) 23 Dec 202029 Dec 2020 What could be more Christmassy than a documentary about a Russian athletics doping scandal? To be fair, I needed a break from incessant twinkling lights and Mariah Carey, and there…
christmas… Movie #357 2020: Christmas With the Kranks (2004) 22 Dec 202029 Dec 2020 This movie has a poor reputation in that the majority of reviews give it superlatives such as 'WORST CHRISTMAS MOVIE EVER', so obviously I was expecting very little. Well, maybe…
Comedy… Movie #356 2020: Gremlins 2: The New Batch (1990) 21 Dec 202029 Dec 2020 Couldn't resist. I loved Gremlins so much that I had to watch the sequel immediately afterwards. They're infectious!... in more ways than one. As this second instalment took six years…
Classics… Movie #354 2020: Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb (1964) 19 Dec 202029 Dec 2020 We've had an awful lot of reviews here for modern-day cinema lately, haven't we? So why not wind it all the way back to 1964 and take a look at…
Classics… Movie #353 2020: Groundhog Day (1993) 18 Dec 202029 Dec 2020 It's release? 1993. But Groundhog Day is a movie that many already consider a 'classic'. Of course, everyone knows the basic premise of this movie due to its title, but…
Biographical… Movie #352 2020: A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood (2019) 17 Dec 202029 Dec 2020 Wholesome with an edge. That's how I'd describe this movie. It was definitely more than I bargained for, so let's get into it. A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood gets…
