Cats 2019
No matter how bad you've heard it is you aren't prepared for how bad it actually is.

I will grant to Saltburn that if it had continued to tell the…

Wheel of Fortune and Fantasy 2021
Wheel of Fortune and Fantasy is a great showcase for how absorbing dialogue can be when done properly and with imagination. The film is a trio of stories; Magic (or something less assuring), Door Open and Once Again which unlike many other films of its type don't interweave outside of some small thematic focuses.
This was my first experience of Ryusuke Hamaguchi, who has just been on the receiving end of many award nominations for Drive My Car. His work…
