    The Wasp

    ★★★½

    Firstly the negative, as a film it doesn't fully escape it's stage play origins.
    But the positives significantly outweigh that particular issue.
    There are two excellent central performances from Naomie Harris and Natalie Dormer.
    The direction of a slowly developing claustrophobic pressure cooker of a plot is cleverly handled and this really should not have been in doubt given Guillem Morales's CV (and we are given a lovely Inside No9 reference)
    Would definitely recommend a watch. A solid 7/10 from me.

    Not a bad indie slow burn crime thriller. Worth a watch.

    The film that made me fall in love with cinema. A cold wet December in the West Midlands 1980 was left behind as this magnificent space pantomime exploded onto the screen.

    First rewatch since the lockdown.
    A masterpiece of modern cinema.
