Back to Black (2024)

7 / 10

WHAT I LIKED: Well would you look at that. Another music biopic everyone hates that I actually quite like. Sure, like most films of the genre, 'Back to Black,' tells its story completely chronologically, so it's hardly groundbreaking in its deliv... Read the full review »

Robot Dreams (2023)

8 / 10

WHAT I LIKED: Like the recent 'Past Lives,' Pablo Berger's new animation 'Robot Dreams,' is a beautifully honest film that rejects the idea of fate or destiny in favour of a story about the importance of finding and holding onto our meaningful rel... Read the full review »

Civil War (2024)

9 / 10

WHAT I LIKED: It would be possible to depict a modern-day American 'Civil War,' in many different ways, but Alex Garland's new film is simply devoted to translating the indiscriminate horror and insanity of war to its audience. That may be well-wo... Read the full review »

The Zone of Interest (2023)

7 / 10

WHAT I LIKED: When it comes to something as awful as genocide, it's very easy to think of the perpetrators as entirely inhuman. But in following the daily lives of an SS Officer and his family in their house just outside Auschwitz, Jonathan Glazer... Read the full review »

American Fiction (2023)

8 / 10

WHAT I LIKED: Be it your race, gender or sexuality, your cultural identity plays a big part in defining who you are. But if you're part of a marginalised group, the chances are that identity will also limit your life chances. Adapted from the nov... Read the full review »

Dune: Part Two (2024)

9 / 10

Dune: Part 2 lives up to all of its predecessor’s promises as a bold, non-stop, gut-punch of an epic that’s brimming with intense conflicts about leadership, power and prophecy. Full review available at: https://barneyonmovies.wordpress.com/2... Read the full review »

Oldboy (2003)

5 / 10

WHAT I LIKED: Park Chan-Wook's 'Oldboy,' is a film about a man called Dae-Su hunting down the people who captured and imprisoned him for fifteen years. What makes it different from your average genre movie though is that the prospect of finding th... Read the full review »
