THE DEATH AND LIFE OF JOHN F. DONOVAN: A Rare Case Of Bad Press Tainting A Not-So-Bad Movie

The Death and Life of John F. Donovan is far from perfect, but still manages to be a fascinating attempt at exploring sexual identity, isolation and the consequences of fame.

GOOD BOYS: The New Generation's Coming Of Age Comedy
GOOD BOYS: The New Generation’s Coming Of Age Comedy

It’s absurd and outrageous, and although sometimes that doesn’t work in favor of the jokes, Good Boys triumphs as a sweet coming-of-age story.

THE TWILIGHT ZONE: "Blurryman" (S1E10): Saving The Best For Last
THE TWILIGHT ZONE (S1E10) “Blurryman”: Saving The Best For Last

Saving the best for last, ”Blurryman” is definitely the best episode of Season 1 of The Twilight Zone simply because it isn’t afraid to take risks.

THE TWILIGHT ZONE (S1E6) “Six Degrees of Freedom”: A Trip To Mars Takes A Surprising Turn

THE PREDATOR: 80’s Action Schlock Gone Horribly Wrong
THE PREDATOR: 80’s Action Schlock Gone Horribly Wrong

The Predator is a brainless, tone deaf picture, that is quite easily the worst thing writer/director Shane Black has ever laid his hands on.

WONDER: Prudent, Sincere & Perspicaciously Polycentric
WONDER: Prudent, Sincere & Perspicaciously Polycentric

With verisimilitude, outstanding acting from its central and supporting cast, and sentient multifaceted perspectives, Wonder succeeds.

WONDER: Uneven, Sappy Drivel
WONDER: Uneven, Sappy Drivel

Wonder may have all the trappings of passable family-friendly fare, but it is jumbled, unfocused, and far too unbelievably sappy.

THE BOOK OF HENRY: A Questionable Mishap For All Involved
THE BOOK OF HENRY: A Questionable Mishap For All Involved

The Book of Henry is strange from its outset, and its lack of redeeming characters or strong emotional moments doesn’t much help matters.

BEFORE I WAKE: An Emotional Disaster
BEFORE I WAKE: An Emotional Disaster

Before I Wake feels like a parody of director Mike Flanagan’s more successful work, prioritising emotional manipulation over story and scares.
