    ★★★½

    I was never a baby goth so this holds no particular place in my heart but I needed something to stick on while cooking and this fit the bill. A simple but effective story with some cute production design.

    24 Hour Party People

    ★★★★½

    Maybe it's just because I'm a proud northerner and a bit of a music geek but this heresy/history of the Manchester music scene from the late seventies to the early nineties absolutely kills me everytime. Such a funny script, wonderful casting and cameos and the fourth wall breaking moments are executed so well. Maybe sags a little in the second half but Steve Coogan, Michael Winterbottom and writer Frank Cottrell Bryce deserve so much credit for a film that perfectly captures the mix of grime and romance that makes Tony Wilson, Factory Records and the Hacienda so compelling.

    ★★★★

    Kinetic musical heist movie about a tinnitus afflicted getaway driver and the one last job he is forced to pull before he can flee with his waitress girlfriend, packing a fantastic soundtrack, neat action and some great performances from the charming leads Ansel Elgort and Lily James as well as vampy Bonnie and Clyde types, Jon Hamm and Eiza Gonzalez.

    There's still a suspicion that Wright doesn't get under the skin of these characters as well as he did with…

    ★★★★

    One of the most intense films I can remember watching. Deserved Oscar win for JK Simmons, great editing and direction and poses some uneasy questions about what it takes to be a legend.
