This is easily the most beautiful yet emotionally disturbing film I’ve ever seen.
This film does not romanticise the relationship between Humbert and Dolores. The focus is about the power dynamic, immoral fantasies and entirely one-sided perspective. The sensitive topics of pedophilia and incest are distressing, but portrayed in a way which I believe shows the true nature of a powerful manipulator. This is a story of all forms of abuse, taking advantage of a minor and controlling behaviours.…
This film explores the heartbreaking nature of love, friendship and betrayal.
This film opens with speeches about Charlie and Nicole, from each other’s perspectives, stating their personal qualities, strengths and flaws. It’s a genius method to let the audience get to know both characters quickly and to show how well they have grown to understand each other throughout their years of marriage. They are both realistic, relatable and humane characters.

I am surprised by the amount of hate this sequel is receiving because I found the entire experience to be an uncomfortably entertaining journey through the unstable emotions and darkly romanticised fantasies of Arthur Fleck. The film pokes fun at its own fanbase who support the Joker’s lashing out killing spree by breaking down the character and instead, focus heavily on Arthur as his own…
A cinematic masterpiece that deserves more recognition.
In such a short amount of time, this film perfectly captures the themes of escapism whilst maintaining a compelling plot. Rhys Jones especially shows off his talents in his first role as a child actor when he uses his facial expressions to show his emotions. He makes a strong impact on the audience with his phenomenal and sympathetic dialogue delivery in certain scenes.
Overall, a must-see for film lovers everywhere.
