Venom ** (2018, Tom Hardy, Michelle Williams, Riz Ahmed, Jenny Slate) – Movie Review
Casting good actors in a Marvel movie might seem like a good idea, but no acting is required in Venom (2018), just the ability to be there, run around, look tragic and, above all, look right. In […]
Mile 22 ** (2018, Mark Wahlberg, Lauren Cohan, Iko Uwais, John Malkovich, Ronda Rousey) – Movie Review
Director Peter Berg’s well-made, impressively staged, visceral action movie thriller Mile 22 is not bad but no knockout and no classic. The 18 certificate for strong bloody violence is a warning. Mile 22 is super-intense. This movie […]
Stick ** (1985, Burt Reynolds, Candice Bergen, George Segal, Charles Durning) – Classic Movie Review 7568
An Elmore Leonard novel about an ex-convict sucked into Florida’s drugs underworld is patchily transferred to the screen as a rickety crime action thriller vehicle for the always likeable Burt Reynolds, both as actor and […]
Revenge **** (2017, Matilda Anna Ingrid Lutz, Kevin Janssens, Vincent Colombe) – Movie Review
Coralie Fargeat’s full-on feminist French thriller Revenge (2017) is stonkingly intense, exciting and brilliantly shot (by Robrecht Heyvaert), with an interesting, playfully post-modern take on the war between men and women. There is more flesh […]
The Strangers: Prey at Night ** (2018, Christina Hendricks, Bailee Madison, Martin Henderson, Lewis Pullman) – Movie Review
Johannes Roberts’s pretty scary, pretty nasty, pretty average slasher horror movie sequel is an homage/ ripoff throwback to the Seventies/ Eighties classics, and is deeply indebted to Halloween and Friday the 13th. Once it gets […]
Support Your Local Sheriff! **** (1969, James Garner, Joan Hackett, Walter Brennan, Jack Elam, Harry Morgan, Bruce Dern, Henry Jones) – Classic Movie Review 6534
Director Burt Kennedy’s 1969 Western spoof is appealing, affectionate and funny. It provides a spot-on tailor-made role for James Garner as Jason McCullough, the stranger who rides into a gold-rush town and is immediately made […]
Violent Cop [Sono otoko, kyôbô ni tsuki] ***** (1989, Takeshi Kitano, Maiko Kawakami, Makoto Ashikawa, Shirô Sano) – Classic Movie Review 6527
Takeshi Kitano’s highly promising director debut shows much of the sharp and quirky style that was to come to its acme in Sonatine (1993). Kitano’s taut and exciting 1989 Japanese film has a relentless pace that suddenly […]
