AN AMERICAN PICKLE: A Big, Silly Idea with a Big Heart
AN AMERICAN PICKLE: A Big, Silly Idea with a Big Heart

With a memorable dual role from Seth Rogen, An American Pickle is intentionally illogical, tonally wacky, and surprisingly personal.

Legend
LEGEND: A Glossy Take On A Gritty Story

From the minute of its inception I had high hopes for Legend. An earlier attempt at a biopic of the infamous Kray twins has largely been forgotten, starring as it did the brothers from Spandau Ballet. But this one, starring Tom Hardy as both Ronnie and Reggie, with a plethora of great British actors in supporting roles, looked promising.

A DOZEN SUMMERS: Charming But Aimless

Low budget productions always have to come to terms to the fact they are not going to be able to offer proper cinematic spectacle on a minuscule budget. A Dozen Summers instead opts to be as deliberately amateurish as possible, giving it the distinctive feeling of a movie that the twelve year old protagonists would not only wish to make, but would be capable of making. It feels aimless, rambling at even a brief 82 minutes (eight of which are dedicated to elongated end credits), but proves near impossible to dislike despite all of its clear faults.
