Li Fong (Ben Wang) is a martial arts prodigy and Mr. Han’s (Jackie Chan) nephew. Li is forced to move to […]

A Simple Favour/Another Simple Favour Review
A Simple Favour begins by dropping you into your typical suburban hellscape of school runs, bitchy parents with too much time on their hands, and social media. Smack dab right in the middle of all this is Stephanie Smothers (Anna Kendrick), the super mum. Or the super annoying mum, depending on who you ask. When […]
Sister Midnight Review
I was fortunate enough to catch the New England premier of Sister Midnight at the Boston Underground Film Festival back in March, where I listed it as one of the best features of the festival. A huge benefit of catching an early screening is knowing nothing about the film beyond the title until the lights […]
Fountain of Youth Review
A team of treasure hunters searching for the Fountain of Youth discover clues to its location in a series of famous paintings. Trouble is, they’re all squirrelled away in museums and private collections, or simply lost to time. All of which makes getting hold of them more than a little challenging, and it’s not long […]

Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning Review
The Mission: Impossible film series has endured for nearly 30 years, thrilling audiences and producing some of the best Hollywood blockbusters, especially in the 2010s. Tom Cruise has called time on his longest role by concluding the events of Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning and the series as a whole. The world is in chaos […]
Steppenwolf Review
Steppenwolf is a movie at war with itself. It doesn’t seem to know what to make of its own story, as what it seems to be saying shifts multiple times. On more than one occasion, Braiyuk (Berik Aytzhanov) responds to questions about death by laughing and pretending to fuck a large, floppy, plush dog. His […]
The Phoenician Scheme Review
The Phoenician Scheme is Wes Anderson’s 13th film as a writer-director. This time, he takes his trademark style to the espionage genre. Zsa-zsa Korda (Benicio del Toro) is an industrialist, arms dealer, and the richest man in Europe. He had also made many enemies, and after a sixth attempt on his life, Korda sets out […]
Final Destination Bloodlines Review
As a staple of the aughts, it’s fitting that the last entry in the Final Destination horror franchise came fourteen years ago. It’s a series of mid-budget horror films with almost no recurring characters spawned from a rejected spec script for The X Files, squarely situating it in another time. While none of the original […]
