    Loved this gooey, freaky body horror. 

    Can Dennis Quade just play Vince McMahon please?

  • Knock at the Cabin

    ★★★

    Not a bad entry from Shymalan, Dave Batista was really great in this. I want to watch a whole film with him just being kind. 

    I liked this a good bit, it was a bit heavy handed at times though.

    The loudest “Meh” I can muster.

    My Big Fat Greek Wedding

    ★★★★★

    This is a lean little heat seeker of a romantic comedy that does exactly what it says on the tin. 

    Despite this story focussing on the Greek experience, the genius of this is that it could be about any culture and that’s what makes this so relatable. 

    A great leading performance from writer Nia Vardalos adds to the warmth and charm. 

    I really do love this movie, it’s like a big, fat, Greek hug that you just want to watch again and again.
