Carmilla (2019) 77% 3/5 EDIT “The film is big on flickering candles, gory erotic dreams and close-ups of insects, but it builds into a nicely executed take on villainised lesbian love.” – Sunday Times (UK) Oct 19, 2020 Full Review I Am Greta (2020) 77% 3/5 EDIT “Grossman shows her vulnerabilities, but is too respectful to cut to the heart of the real Greta behind the curated persona.” – Sunday Times (UK) Oct 19, 2020 Full Review The Kindergarten Teacher (2018) 90% 3/5 EDIT “Gyllenhaal is superb at capturing the teacher's conflicting motivations, but the contrasting of mediocrity and genius is a little extreme.” – Sunday Times (UK) Mar 11, 2019 Full Review Old Boys (2018) 75% 3/5 EDIT “The tropes and jokes are old, but MacDonald wrings plenty of fun out of his setting.” – Sunday Times (UK) Feb 25, 2019 Full Review Capernaum (2018) 90% 4/5 EDIT “[Labaki] never shows us the worst abuse in Zain's underworld, instead giving the piece emotional force through a crushing build-up of everyday incident.” – Sunday Times (UK) Feb 25, 2019 Full Review Waiting for You (2017) 60% 3/5 EDIT “If you can overlook the contrivances, the mystery element of Charles Garrad's slow-burning drama is gently intriguing.” – Sunday Times (UK) Oct 31, 2018 Full Review Overboard (2018) 24% 2/5 EDIT “Playing the straight woman, Faris never gets to showcase her comic talents: she would have been wiser to have jumped ship on this stale reboot a while back.” – Sunday Times (UK) Jun 26, 2018 Full Review Boom for Real: The Late Teenage Years of Jean-Michel Basquiat (2017) 88% 3/5 EDIT “To [Sara Driver's] credit, however, she doesn't shy away from the darker side of his story, and the radical downtown art scene that made Basquiat comes through blazing.” – Sunday Times (UK) Jun 26, 2018 Full Review Arcadia (2016) 92% 2/5 EDIT “It makes for pretty tedious watching, though the harsher side of our treatment of animals and an eerie score from Adrian Utley (Portishead) and Will Gregory (Goldfrapp) give it an edge.” – Sunday Times (UK) Jun 26, 2018 Full Review The Divine Order (2017) 85% 3/5 EDIT “Leuenberger is a shyly brilliant heroine, but formulaic set pieces and improbable character arcs rob the film of distinctiveness.” – Sunday Times (UK) Mar 23, 2018 Full Review Sweet Country (2017) 96% 4/5 EDIT “A muscular drama with impressive depth.” – Sunday Times (UK) Mar 13, 2018 Full Review Mom and Dad (2017) 74% 1/5 EDIT “Its central purpose seems to be to give Cage the chance to lose it, on repeat, for its duration.” – Sunday Times (UK) Mar 12, 2018 Full Review The Nile Hilton Incident (2017) 91% 3/5 EDIT “Atmosphere is strong, the seedy darkness of a city on the brink of eruption is all there, but it lapses into a binary case of good cop, bad cops.” – Sunday Times (UK) Mar 5, 2018 Full Review
