Glass – Review

The Upside – Review

“THE UPSIDE” The Upside if a rather interesting film altogether which has been advertised as based on a true story which has not been entirely accurate. It is technically based on a true story but is also a remake of

The Best Films of 2018

Top 10 Best Films of 2018 If you’ve come from my worst films list, it’s the exact same rules. I will say once again this list is rather incomplete since like the worst films list, I did not go out

Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse – Review

“SPIDER-MAN: INTO THE SPIDER-VERSE” We now live in an age where there has now been 7 Spider-Man movies gone to cinemas, that is insane. It’s even actually caused people to ask the question, has there been too much Spider-Man over

Robin Hood (2018) – Review

“ROBIN HOOD (2018)” What is it with Robin Hood films never quite working? Aside from the Disney one I’ve never heard of one that’s received no source of criticism. In fact, the one probably with the biggest cult status at

The Grinch (2018) – Review

“THE GRINCH” Me and Dr Seuss adaptations don’t get along. That’s not too say I don’t like Dr Seuss, his books are fine, in fact some of them have actually held up remarkably well. The problem is that, well, his
