Yesterday is a film that has gathered some of the biggest talents in British entertainment.

I Love My Mum Review
I Love My Mum is the second feature-length film from Camelot Films. This comedy had a bigger budget but was problematic on a writing level.

Toy Story 4 Review
Toy Story was the film that put Pixar on the map and the subsequent films made the series a perfect trilogy. So it was seemingly bizarre that Pixar would go back to the well for a fourth entry. After the events of Toy Story 3 Andy has given up his toys to a little girl called Bonnie (Madeleine […]
Booksmart Review
There are many coming-of-age high school films that focus on graduation, prom, or a big party. Booksmart‘s USP is being a female-centric party film and is already considered by some critics as one of the best comedies of 2019.

Since the growth of streaming services more indie filmmakers have been able to distribute their films to a wider audience.
