Suicide Squad will age as well as a rotting corpse would in the sun. It makes Batman v Superman looks like a modern masterpiece.

Jason Bourne – Movie Review: “One Bourne every minute”
Indulgent is not an adjective you would usually use to describe a Bourne film, but here's Jason Bourne in a pointless, indulgent fifth instalment of the franchise.

Greta Gerwig is on top form as a woman who must deal with her life plan going off the rails in Rebecca Miller’s neo-screwball comedy, Maggie’s Plan.

Notes on Blindness – Movie Review
In 1980s, academic John Hull lost his sight. It’s a process he recorded on audio-cassettes over a period of three years. Notes on Blindness gives shape to his voice in the form of actor Dan Skinner, who lip-synced John’s voice, and turns the tapes into one of the most audacious experimentations of the documentary form and created one of the most beautiful, deeply moving films of recent times.

Adult Life Skills – Movie Review
Adult Life Skills is a charming film about the struggle to come to terms with loss and move on... and the unlimited comedic potential of thumbs with smiley faces.

Now You See Me 2 – Movie Review
The sequel to 2013's surprise hit Now You See Me unsurprisingly fails to deliver, as its purpose is nothing more than to make the first film's surprising success scaleable.

Independence Day: Resurgence, a film you’ll hate as much as it hates you
Independence Day: Resurgence has to be one of the worst films I have ever seen. Its cynicism and contempt for its audience, and even its own characters, is breathtaking.

Love & Friendship – Movie Review: “Desperately scheming Susan”
Beneath the semblance of a light-hearted comedy, there is steeliness and subversion in Love & Friendship. It's unafraid to challenge what is widely accepted.

Bastille Day – Movie Review
In Bastille Day, character depth is treated as fat that must be trimmed. If the film were an animal, it would be a starved greyhound.

Movie review: The Club (El Club)
The Club is a fascinating counterpoint to recent Oscar winner Spotlight, but I definitely need a long shower now.
