Thirst quenches Chan-wook's desire to craft a blood-sucking good time. Well, this was bizarre. Not something I would have ever imagined Chan-wook to direct. It can be best described as a dark religious vampiric sex-comedy. If any of those descript... Read the full review »

The Last Exorcism exorcises typical genre traits before its diminishing conclusion. Oh look, another "Found Footage" styled low budget horror. I'm sure this narrative will follow the exact structure from others that came before it. "Hi, I'm Cotton... Read the full review »

Hanna struggles to balance stylish girl power with dramatic coming-of-age development. Wright is best known for acclaimed period British dramas that relish in classicism and Keira Knightley. So much to our surprise, he broke away from his comfort... Read the full review »

The Front Runner (2018) added to 2019 Movies Ranked list.

The Front Runner sprints to its scandalous finish line whilst tackling heavy themes. For some unknown reason, other than its political approach, this journalistic drama has disappeared from awards season. With mediocre critical reviews and a warm-... Read the full review »

The Iron Lady rusts into a melodramatic biopic that needed ironing out. Political films, including biopics, are often fraught with personal views from critics and audiences. Atleast that is what I told myself to explain the low scoring reviews. Ha... Read the full review »

Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter swings his axe and just about beheads the competition. Remember when one of America's most famous presidents was also slaying vampires as a hobby? No? Well now you do. When we receive a title such as Abraham Lincoln... Read the full review »

Spawn should've stayed in hell. Sony's PlayStation was released in 1994. The Nintendo 64 was released in 1996. Spawn was theatrically released in 1997. If you've seen the film, you know exactly where I'm going with this! An "innovative visual expe... Read the full review »

The Favourite (2018) added to 2019 Movies Ranked list.
TheMovieDiorama rated and reviewed a movie.

The Favourite deliciously balances courtly politics, devious deceit and sexual jealousy with dark humour. Yorgos Lanthimos is a director that does not hide any aspects to his films. If it's unusual, explicit or perhaps even downright mad, he will... Read the full review »

Welcome to Marwen (2018) added to 2019 Movies Ranked list.
TheMovieDiorama rated and reviewed a movie.

Welcome to Marwen feels more disjointed than its heroic dolls. Starting off the year with what is possibly one of the most difficult films to critique. I'm sure Zemeckis had the best intentions when directing/writing this drama, a director who has... Read the full review »

An on-going ranking list of the films I've seen in 2019 and the current position they are in. These are mostly based on enjoyment and the technical aspects into making a film. Using UK theatrical release dates so there might be some films released...

Predator 2 falls prey to its own stupidity. There's a fine line between silly entertainment and stupid irritations. This sequel to the testosterone packed 'Predator' is unfortunately the latter. McTiernan's creative and focused direction has gone.... Read the full review »

X-Men Origins: Wolverine shreds its source material into little tiny pieces. Oooof. Kids, this is why we can't have nice things. When a franchise gains continued success, the studio believe they can do no wrong. Well, this pointless atrocity is th... Read the full review »

Megamind uses his super villainous cranium to create an unoriginal scheme. Dreamworks animations are hit and miss for me. Will Ferrell is usually boisterously unfunny. And superhero fatigue started to develop back in 2010. With all that being said... Read the full review »

The Heat is a lukewarm effort that remains handcuffed to a mediocre script. Director Feig is usually consistent with his comedies, particularly those that involve McCarthy. But despite the watchable chemistry of its leads, something was missing in... Read the full review »

Elektra assassinated its "plot" for Garner's flat stomach and eternal breezes. Oh my. Can no one write decent roles for the protagonist in female-lead blockbusters? I have never seen a character undergo so many personality changes in one film, unt... Read the full review »

TheMovieDiorama rated and reviewed a movie.

The Greatest Showman was unable to rewrite the stars with its formulaic story. Every year there is a "crowd pleaser", a film that has garnered criticism from industry experts but received overwhelming popularity from audiences. This was that film... Read the full review »
