What the show lacks in the easy charm of simplicity, it makes up for in a deeper emotional connection. Lovesick doesn’t replace the rom-com, it just offers a new, often improved, take on it.
Beast is a gritty psychological-mystery with a brilliantly dark, pulsating and atmospheric heart, with an exceptional lead performance from Jessie Buckley. Michael Pearce delivers a brilliantly assured and confident feature-length directorial debut.
