I was one of the insatiables. The ones you’d always find sitting closest to the screen.

    Little Buddha

    ★★★

    With beautiful shots amidst very bad acting and a terribly flat screenplay, it is more accomplished as an introductory documentary about Tibetan Buddhism (featuring key imagery of Bhutan and Nepal) and far less so as an actual feature film narrative.

  • Kimi

    Kimi

    ★★★

    Interesting concept and ideas, with great delivery by Zoë Kravitz, but an over-simplistic direction and a lazy screenplay. Thanks Kevin.

    Magnificently directed, sublimely acted, beautifully written, flawlessly shot. A mesmerising, delicate, touching biopic masterpiece.

    The Brutalist

    ★★★★½

    The Brutalist sets up a monumental post-war epic around immigration issues and architectural work. It magnificently delivers to its high ambitions, but the changes in tone over the shorter third act, although deliberate, are far too abrupt for it to feel like a cohesive and sound narrative.
