Do not see this film if you cannot watch Body Horror or Gore. This is not a mild movie - there is more gore, guts, blood and mess than there is dialogue. Please, please, please, don’t see it if you can’t handle that. This is a film about

Time to start watching shows with my hands covering my eyes, I guess. Many a friend has opined their love for Mike Flanagan, and I couldn’t wait to watch ‘The Life of Chuck’ to get even just a sippy cup of a taste of his genius, and reader — he

Fink. Fink, I hated you Fink. For a good chunk, my guy. ‘The Wild Robot’ has a stacked but ultimately successfully completed mandate - adapt a book, and in turn, marry together the twin causes of Climate Change and Technology being able to save the world, provide the message in

The entire film revolves around a TV studio — which you would expect to get very tiring very quickly, were it not for the fantastic talents of Director Samir Oliveros and Cinematographer Pablo Lozano, who keep movement and pace going with the most ecstatic effect. The performances from all figures were

I must admit, I did not think there was a darker story hiding beneath the opening act of Pimpinero — I thought, uncharitably, that I was witnessing the crowning of a new, gritty Amazon franchise to rival ‘The Fast and the Furious’, or ‘Narcos’. Soon, it became evident that was not

The premise is rather simple - an older CEO, played by Nicole Kidman, soon finds out that one of the new Interns (Harris Dickinson) can tame dogs with a stern hand — which is code for ‘He’s a Dom’. They start an affair - Miss CEO, real name Romy, wants

As I entered the Press Screening, a TIFF Volunteer struck up a conversation with me - she lobbied to work this shift, to work this very screening, and would stand through the entire thing, just to see the film. There were murmurs on the street that it would be People’

In one of the best films at the festival, ‘Sudan, Remember Us’ brings to the western consciousness the question of Sudanese sovereignty in a world intent on keeping the land’s people dispossessed and removed. Through poetry, painting, remembering and a lot of song, people can learn of the strength

If you’re anyone of quality in my audience, then the stories contained in this film are not new, but they are presented with far more flair and grandeur than we are used to from our phones. Away from the international diplomatic political interpretation of events, From Ground Zero comprises

The Assessment makes a couple turns away from what seemed to be a fantastic premise — what’s the implication of the state meddling in reproduction? Instead, it watercolours over how hard parenting is, how hard apocalypses are, how terrible climate change is, the generals vibe of post-apocalypse tyranny, and the
SPOILERS below. ‘My Sunshine’ is a movie that sucks you in with the premise of innocent pre-teen love, then flips you over and guts you alive by showing you the reality of a gay man in a small town in what I assume to be an 80s/90s Japan, being

It was only 20 minutes in when I asked myself the question, ‘Did this guy rip off the play ‘Constellations’? Reader. The guy literally wrote ‘Constellations’. We Live in Time seems like a pretty typical take on a love story, with tragedy and ups and downs. The time bendiness reminded
