Tomb Raider * (2018, Alicia Vikander, Dominic West, Walton Goggins, Daniel Wu, Derek Jacobi, Kristin Scott Thomas, Nick Frost) – Movie Review
Director Roar Uthaug’s Lara Croft videogame franchise reboot Tomb Raider is a nice try, but mostly quite boring, and largely just going through the motions of being exciting. Apart from an ill-judged Nick Frost cameo as […]

Kévin Azaïs stars as dreamy blue-collar boy Arnaud, who runs into the doomy, aggressive, muscular middle-class teen Madeleine (Adèle Haenel) when she fights him in training on the beach. They’re absolute opposites. He has good friends, likes […]
The Loneliness of the Long Distance Runner **** (1962, Tom Courtenay, Michael Redgrave, James Fox) Classic Movie Review 1648
Producer-director Tony Richardson’s 1962 movie The Loneliness of the Long Distance Runner does full just to its source author Alan Sillitoe, who provides a commendably taut screenplay from his own novella about a reform school boy […]
