Keeping Mum (2005)

7 / 10

WHAT I LIKED: 'Keeping Mum' takes the template of a quaint English drama and flips it on its lid with a story about a nanny who goes around killing people to help the dysfunctional family she's looking after. It's an amusing concept, and it works... Read the full review »

Apocalypse Now: Final Cut (2019)

8 / 10

WHAT I LIKED: Whichever cut you're talking about, Apocalypse Now is - like many Vietnam stories - a study of the affects of war on the human mind. That's some very difficult real-world subject matter, and generally it could be said that there are... Read the full review »

The Bucket List (2007)

9 / 10

WHAT I LIKED: 'The Bucket List' is a film about two very different fractious characters with mere months to live who embark on an adventure to fill them. Edward is a super-rich, fun-loving but ultimately lonely soul with no real friends, and Carte... Read the full review »

The Lion King (2019)

8 / 10

WHAT I LIKED: Disney's live-action remakes have been a somewhat mixed bag. Some have unnecessarily altered great classics for no apparent end at all (*ahem* Beauty and The Beast), whilst others have felt like entirely pointless rehashes (I'm looki... Read the full review »

The Lion King (1994)

8 / 10

WHAT I LIKED: The Lion King follows a fairly simple script, but the way that it's brought to life gives the whole thing an impressive sense of grandeur and power which would have otherwise been lacking. Indeed a fairly small number of simple scene... Read the full review »

London Has Fallen (2016)

3 / 10

WHAT I LIKED: 'Olympus Has Fallen' was a preposterous film with a sickeningly patriotic story executed well enough to make for something enjoyable and engaging, and the one glimmer that remains from that here is Gerard Butler's performance which d... Read the full review »

Boogie Nights (1997)

7 / 10

WHAT I LIKED: There are lots of films out there about the danger of indulging in the vices of wild sex, hard drugs or extreme wealth, but what makes Paul Thomas Anderson's 'Boogie Nights' such a successful one is that it largely keeps a handle on... Read the full review »

Olympus Has Fallen (2013)

7 / 10

WHAT I LIKED: There's no getting away from the fact that 'Olympus Has Fallen' is utterly preposterous and blindly patriotic to a sickening extent, but director Antoine Fuqua always seems to have the ability to make the ridiculous thoroughly grippi... Read the full review »
