    Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse

    “Into the spiderverse” was like nothing we’d ever seen before. It opened the floodgates for other studios and streams of stylised animation kept coming in its wake. However “Across the spiderverse” has raised the bar once again. 

    I’ll be surprised if there’s a film this year that’s  better than this. The bar hasn’t just been raised, it’s been slung into space by a cosmic catapult.

    Everyone was on their A-game here. The art direction feels like staring at a kaleidoscopic art gallery, characters are deep but grounded, and the score sounds like Mozart on Dominic Fike’s magic mushrooms. Simply put, everyone should see this.

    Must See

    Polite Society

    Polite Society is an absolute blast of a film, it's fast, colourful, and just plain fun. All scenes are crafted dynamically with inspiration taken from Edgar Wright and the Daniels. The script has strong theming lending to every part of the story including the heavy family dynamics. That being said I would have liked a deeper exploration of the villains as some of their motivations are confused. It's almost like they didn't want to address it so they could focus on their main characters and the action. That Hiccup is the only thing that stopping this film from becoming a true masterpiece.

    It’s like a hotdog that is half meaty bratwurst and half wet newspaper. If you want to learn screenwriting this is a must watch, everyone else can probably give it a pass.
