Antony and Cleopatra

Brilliantly acted historical epic marred by being a little too long and a little unsure on when it wants to be set.

Enchanted

Disney taking the Mickey out of Disney with some stellar performances and brilliantly executed set-pieces.Β  An absolutely enchanting (heh) ride.

McCarthy's Bar

A witty and often weird snapshot of early 90's Ireland. McCarthy is an excellent observer and clever writer, creating a book filled with folklore and interesting ancedotes, even if it does occasionally take a wander off its own path.

A Streetcar Named Desire

A brilliant performance of a play that is deservedly considered a modern classic. Stanley is one of the best worst characters ever written for stage.

Lucky Number Slevin

A cult classic that remains surprisingly fresh and enjoyable, with an excellent cast and a brilliantly stylised level of absurdity that demands to be watched.

Space Force

A surprisingly nuanced comedy that isn't afraid to throw punches in every direction, with an empathetic message at the core. Nothing revolutionary, but nothing to be scoffed at either.

Thor: Ragnarok

An extremely fun, vibrant and action-packed ride that lacks emotional depth. Easily the best Thor film but not quite worthy of inclusion in the MCU's greatest hits.

Shrek 2

The rare sequel that - in some ways at least - is better than the original. Overall, I think it does come second, but it's still a fantastically fun film which holds up remarkably well.

Shrek

A true classic. Funny, clever, heart warming, and with enough hidden references that even 20 years on I'm still finding new things to love and laugh about.

The Hunchback of Notre Dame

A dark, sombre, and slightly terrifying meditation on morality and societal failings wrapped up in beautiful animation, excellent songs, and some bold story choices.
