Free Fire

From time-to-time, it can be refreshing to sit back and watch a tautly-made thriller where the characters (and their actions) are constrained by the laws of physics and tension is allowed to ebb and flow as circumstances warrant. If Quentin Ta...

Freedomland

Freedomland is one of an increasingly endangered species: the adult movie that's about something. By "something," I mean a serious issue - the kind of thing films shy away from for fear of alienating viewers. Underneath the trappings of a police ...

Friday Night Lights

If you go to this movie based solely on how it is being portrayed in the trailers and advertisements, you will probably be expecting a feel-good romp through familiar territory - a football version of Hoosiers. Like nearly all sports movies, Frida...

The lasting image most people have of From Here to Eternity is of Sgt. Milton Warden (Burt Lancaster) embracing Karen Holmes (Deborah Kerr) on the beaches of Hawaii with the surf churning around them. This iconic moment, emblazoned in the minds...

Glass

The best element of M. Night Shyamalan’s 2017 horror film, Split – and one of the few things it did right – happened at the very end. The brief, surprising reveal of Bruce Willis reprising his David Dunn character from Unbreakable create...

Glengarry Glen Ross

Is Glengarry Glen Ross really about salesmen, or is it about a bankrupt culture that produces and nurtures them? Certainly, it stands alongside Wall Street as one of the most unflinching views of a mindset that informed a generation of salesmen and...

Godzilla: King of the Monsters

Emerging from the loud, overlong spectacle that is Godzilla: King of the Monsters, I was struck by the disheartening realization that what I had just seen owed more to Transformers than kaiju. Although the movie takes great pains to pay homage ...

Goosebumps

At a guess, I'd say that Goosebumps will satisfy its core audience - fans of R.L. Stine's popular children's books - and bore pretty much everyone else. The film, which captures the feel if not the full charm of the written stories, comes...
