A mildly diverting 2 hours, but I felt like it should have been so much better. Review

For all of its dubious sexism, this is still a classic movie. It was wonderful to see it again on the big screen and I had so much fun doing so. Review

Given the strong positive vibes from some reviewers of this one, I perhaps went in with my hopes a little too elevated. But in the end I came away disappointed. Review

Chuck Chuck Baby should be added to the list of films such as Four Weddings and a Funeral, Notting Hill and Love Actually that are popularly regarded as great, classic feel-good British movies. Review

As a rom-com set against a momentus moment in human history, it entertained me to a degree and, I think, would particularly entertain viewers of a similar crinkly age. Review

It’s good gory fun but, for me, it didn’t quite reach the heights of Pearl which I enjoyed more. Review

It’s a cracking little motion picture, typical of the sort of tight and well-executed thrillers that they used to make in the 70’s and which there are not enough equivalents of today. Review

The usher on the way out asked if I’d enjoyed it. Rather like my recent viewing of The Beast, I didn’t have a clear answer for him. But with retrospect, yes, I really think I did. Review

I wasn’t sure going in, but I ultimately enjoyed this one a lot. A good, exciting popcorn action film that had an unexpected hero and a memorable ending. Review

It’s OK. It doesn’t have the armchair gripping tension of Fall. Neither does it have the style of Blake Lively (or her orange bikini!) in The Shallows. But it is a watchable little shark movie that keeps you guessing about who will and who won’t make it through. Review

Despite all its flaws, the film’s stories will compel me to go back to the cinema to see Chapter 2. Review

It’s not going to make my list of favourite films of the year, But it undeniably has a certain je ne sais quoi that should demand the attention of cinephiles. Review

For a film of this type, it’s not half bad. I just wish the ending had been better. Review

There was much trepidation about this sequel given that the original was so beloved. But, from my point of view, they have just about pulled it off. Review

It is thoughtful, intelligent and brilliantly acted, especially by the marvellous Vicky Krieps. Review

An interesting and different take on the Titanic story that zealots of the subject should watch. With a very low budget though, it’s a bit creaky round the edges. Review

An interesting film that will be somewhat Marmite for an average audience. Overall though, I enjoyed it. Review

As a popcorn action film, it’s eminently watchable. But it doesn’t feel much different from the last film and I felt it was trying too hard with its comedy. Review

This is a terrific film that the whole family can enjoy together. It has drama, humour, action and a truly inspiring story of one woman’s fight against the patriarchy in 1920’s America. Review

It’s a Liam Neeson action thriller, so you know to park your brain at the door. And the concept behind the film is good. But unfortunately, the execution is lacklustre and uninspiring. Review

As well as some farcical knock-about fun (the opening segment in the shop is splendid) there is a much darker vein of humour running throughout. Review
