The Father 2020
This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth.
I'm at a loss for words on how to describe how incredible this was.
I've been meaning to watch this since I first heard about it (a few months ago now) and never watched the trailer as I didn't want to 'spoil' it for myself.
Whilst I don't have any personal experience with Alzheimer's (or Dementia in general) I still found this to be a deeply touching film.
The performances are just outstanding, by far Anthony Hopkins' best performance, he…

Nomadland 2020
Probably my most anticipated watch of the year and it really didn't disappoint.
Frances McDormand was astonishing, definitely her most memorable performance in recent years. The story was not something I was prepared for, I don't know much about the 2008 crash and what happened after, but this does a really good job at depicting what life must be like for the people that went through it.
Chloé Zhao is one of the most exciting new directors working today, The…

Adolescence 2025
One of the best limited series I've seen in a while. Tackling an important topic is always going to be difficult, but I struggle to see a way they could have gone about this better. Stephen Graham is unbelievable and Owen Cooper absolutely knocks it out of the park with a frightening and intense presence.
It goes without saying, but the one shot is such a huge accomplishment, I feel as though it would have worked just as well in a traditional format, but it bought the immersiveness to another level.
Incredibly impressive show.

Layer Cake 2004
Casino Royale had me wanting another Daniel Craig movie, and since I wasn't feeling any of the other Bonds, I thought why not give this a go.
It's everything I want in an action film, gritty London, a star-studded cast, plot twists, and all in under two hours. What an incredible debut from Vaughn.
Will be watching this again very soon.

Glass Onion 2022
I'm finding it hard to put into words how much I loved this.
I've seen the original Knives Out eight times, which may sound excessive (I assure you it's not), so I was hesitant going into this, in my head, nothing can top the original Benoit Blanc story, and whilst this didn't, It's extremely close.
I knew I was going into a murder mystery, but the number of twists and turns was incredible, and whilst others have said how it…

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix 2007
As soon as I heard the news, I knew I had to watch one.
