5 Mar 202118 Feb 2021
I’m really burning through some franchises this year, am I not? First X-Men, then National Treasure and now To All the Boys. I mean, why not? There’s always room for…

Movie #54 2021: To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before (2018)

2 Mar 202117 Feb 2021
As of last month, this movie is now part of a trilogy. Movies don’t usually get sequels unless they’re super popular, right? To make sure I was keeping up with…

Movie #6 2021: The Long Goodbye (1973)

12 Jan 20216 Jan 2021
Robert Altman is a director that has so far eluded me. Whilst his 1975 musical comedy-drama Nashville is top of my watchlist, it never seems to be available anywhere, so…

31 Dec 202030 Dec 2020

Movie #330 2020: Stardust (2007)

26 Nov 202024 Nov 2020
Stardust isn't exactly a Christmas film, but there's something innately Christmassy about fantasy family movies, isn't there? This one was ladies' choice, as in, it was my girlfriend's turn to…

Movie #294 2020: Murder on the Orient Express (2017)

6 Nov 20205 Nov 2020
Phwoar. What a cast! So many Oscar winners in one photo it's ridiculous. And everyone loves a bit of Agatha Christie, don't they? With the amount of countless adaptations -…

Movie #281 2020: The Witches of Eastwick (1987)

27 Oct 202019 Oct 2020
What a stupid - and stupidly iconic - movie. I mean, who needs all of these legends in one movie? It's an LGBTQ person's dream cast, and that's all I…

Movie #279 2020: The Princess Diaries (2001)
