Phantom Thread (2017) added to 2018 Movies Ranked list.

Phantom Thread is a bombardment of cinematic showmanship. Probably once a year, I watch a film that overwhelms me. I feel pure elation when watching it, that I instantly grin and start to become emotionally attached to what's on screen. Ladies and... Read the full review »

Martha Marcy May Marlene details the psychological damage after being brainwashed. I really didn't know too much going into this, a rather unknown film that is infrequently discussed. To my surprise, I found this to be a resonating and haunting ex... Read the full review »

Lady Macbeth (2017) added to 2017 Movies Ranked list.
TheMovieDiorama rated and reviewed a movie.

Lady Macbeth is a sumptuous tale filled with manipulation and promiscuity. Well, I wasn't expecting that! A period drama I was told, a classy thriller I got. I can see why this deserves all the acclaim it received, it's absolutely stunning. A youn... Read the full review »

Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk (2016) added to 2017 Movies Ranked list.
TheMovieDiorama rated and reviewed a movie.

Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk boasts impressive technical direction but suffers from dullness. It's sad to say, in my opinion, this was a misfire from Ang Lee. He is one of my favourite directors when it comes to metaphorical storytelling. So it... Read the full review »

Take Shelter creatively blends biblical analogies with schizophrenia for dramatic effect. This was a very interesting premise, and a film that I've had my eye on for quite some time. The husband to a loving family starts experiencing visions of an... Read the full review »

Hummingbird is a messy drama about redemption, but showcases one of Statham's best performances. I'm not the biggest fan of British crime dramas, especially those particularly depicting London...in fact I would say I'm not a fan at all. Purposeful... Read the full review »

Laputa: Castle in the Sky is a near perfect Ghibli debut from the master of anime himself. You know what, they just don't make adventure films like these anymore. I never get that sense of wonderment, awe or anything that stimulates my cerebral co... Read the full review »

Winchester (2018) added to 2018 Movies Ranked list.
TheMovieDiorama rated and reviewed a movie.

Winchester is just another supernatural borefest. Like seriously, do we need another "ghosts are haunting this mansion, and so we must appease these spirits in order to save ourselves"? This sub-genre of horror films is utterly saturated, to the p... Read the full review »

Jumanji may have a cult following, but that does not necessarily mean the film is great. Heck, "classics" like 'The Room' and 'Jack and Jill' have garnered a cult status...yet we all know they are abysmal. Fortunately Jumanji isn't that bad howeve... Read the full review »

TheMovieDiorama rated and reviewed a movie.

Maze Runner: The Death Cure is a fittingly epic closing chapter that might just be my personal favourite of the series. Another YA franchise completed (let us rejoice...), although 'The Maze Runner' series has actually been pretty decent from the... Read the full review »

TheMovieDiorama rated and reviewed a movie.

The Zookeeper's Wife might look cute and cuddly on the front cover, yet it lures you into a bleak and depressing story. Another saturated topic, we typically get two or three WWII films a year. Frustratingly, this is another typical holocaust film... Read the full review »

Gold (2017) added to 2017 Movies Ranked list.
TheMovieDiorama rated and reviewed a movie.

Gold occasionally glitters but is weighted by the dullness of mud. An overused and tired formula, oh you know the one: "main character starts with nothing, soon earns everything and then loses it all". An extremely saturated trope where any new ad... Read the full review »

Dark Water is another contemporary Japanese horror classic that blends scares with drama. Hideo Nakata must have a fascination with girls and dirty water. He took the world by storm with 'Ring' which involved a creepy girl in a well, and now this.... Read the full review »
