Dumbo (2019) added to 2019 Movies Ranked list.
TheMovieDiorama rated and reviewed a movie.

Dumbo joyfully takes flight in this bloated re-imagining. Disney's original animation, whilst groundbreaking during its initial release, contained too many outdated elements that hindered its overall timelessness. And if you strongly disagree with... Read the full review »

Shoplifters steals your heart and uplifts your spirits through an endearing family drama. Director Kore-eda has done it again. Another searing family interconnected through intricate life experiences that shape their very own characteristics. To p... Read the full review »

After The Storm emulates an estranged family through a blustery typhoon. Kore-eda is a renowned Japanese director for personable family dramas. His work in 'Still Walking' and 'Like Father, Like Son' (although yet to see) prove he is a capable wri... Read the full review »

Prayers for Bobby faithfully translates sacrilegious homosexuality through uneven storytelling. A film specifically made for TV having been premiered on America's Lifetime network a decade ago. Naturally, the quality and cinematic flair were kept... Read the full review »

21 counts cards through a frenetic albeit predictable crime caper. Blackjack might look like a formidable card game, especially when witnessing the blood, sweat and tears at tables in the lavish casinos of Las Vegas. But actually, if you strip the... Read the full review »

Us is tethered to enormous pressure, but only just succeeds. Jordan Peele has now made a name for himself in Hollywood. 'Get Out', in my opinion at least, is a fresh modern masterpiece and many share the same sentiment. With that, he built up this... Read the full review »

Dumbo flies through its short runtime with endearing tenderness. The 1941 animated classic that recouped the financial losses from 'Fantasia'. Short, simple and sweet. It made perfect sense for Disney to adapt this story. Many regard this as the e... Read the full review »

Incendies explodes into a thrilling mystery-drama that tackles both family and history. As a fan of Villeneuve's work, it was imperative that I experienced his earlier work. To cement the accolades and acclaim that he receives, not just by me, but... Read the full review »

Troll Hunter completes the hunt for an imaginative premise but falls bait to the "found footage" trolls. Ahhhhh! That, right there, is the most accurate description of my brain currently. Disappointed is an understatement, and I don't think a brie... Read the full review »

The Prodigy (2019) added to 2019 Movies Ranked list.
TheMovieDiorama rated and reviewed a movie.

The Prodigy loses its intelligent setup by succumbing to generic jump scares. Think 'Orphan' with a dash of every other generic possession film you can think of. Just another "evil child" flick with minimal thrills, scares and one heck of a predic... Read the full review »

Frozen Fever receives a frosty reception despite its springtime warmth. Elsa plans on giving Anna a birthday party but starts showing symptoms of a cold. Suffice to say, this short is just a glorified music video. It doesn't further any character... Read the full review »

Ghost In The Shell 2 Innocence dances across its philosophical themes like sentient marionettes. It comes as no surprise that I am a huge fan of Oshii's original ambitious science-fiction feature. It transcended philosophies and ideologies through... Read the full review »

Broken City feels more like a broken film. Crime thrillers involving the corruption of policing forces and powerful politicians tend to imitate the aesthetics of a noir classic. Sometimes it works, like with the case of 'LA Confidential', and othe... Read the full review »

Imperium nearly successfully infiltrates the ideologies of white supremacists. 'American History X' will always be the imperative film involving neo-Nazis and nationalism. No film has come close. Here we have a standard crime thriller that utilise... Read the full review »
