It’s hard to put into words how huge in scope Dune: Part Two feels. It’s larger than life, it’s grand in story, and it’s glorious on the big screen. It’s a cinematic event, one that deserves to be seen on the biggest screen possible. What Villeneuve has managed to pull off here is something we rarely see in cinema - it’s magnificent, it’s otherworldly and it’s a masterpiece. He is a genius, and he has…
Approximately once a year, I’ll watch a film that shakes me to my very core, reminds me of why I love cinema and makes me struggle to get down my thoughts because I’m so in awe - this year, that movie is Poor Things.
This is a movie that is hard to summarise in a short review, and kinda pointless too, because everything about it for me was perfect. Emma Stone is ridiculously good as Bella Baxter, one of the…
Didn't enjoy this nearly as much as the first one, but I really liked that this story took us to Okinawa. Mr. Miyagi is the beating heart of the first installment, so having the next one focus on him and develop his character was a smart move.

For once, I'm going to stick by my opinion and not be swayed by the internet; I hated it. Besides a pretty creepy atmosphere, a couple of scares and a decent lead performance, I forced my way through this movie and the run time dragged. Nothing…
I watch a lot of films, and I enjoy a lot of films. However, it’s extremely rare for a film to come along and completely sweep me off my feet, take my breath away and remind me why cinema is the most important thing in my life.
This film means the absolute world to me, it came exactly at the right time, and I’m delighted to share my review for it. Please give it a read if you have a couple of minutes.
