Early Man

There's nothing inherently bad aboutΒ Early Man but it also failed to excite or enthral. If you're a huge Aardman fan or football nut, maybe you'll have a different experience.

Batman: Year One

Beautifully animated, scripted and developed synopsis of who Batman, Gordon and, indeed, Gotham actually are. A fantastic retread of the character, with Bryan Cranston to boot!

Mr Holmes

Occasionally depressing but beautifully acted and written, a Holmes mystery that takes aim at something deeper and far more powerful than the normal murder and logic puzzles: the riddle of human emotions.

Suicide Squad

A hot mess. Some great characters, some excellent acting, and some decent parts. But also some terrible characters, some terrible acting, and a terrible plot in general.

Oblivion

There's nothing specifically wrong here, it's just that nothing ever works and the whole concept is tremendously dull. Also, apparently, completely forgettable.

Mr & Mrs Smith

Action-packed fun that can just be enjoyed for what it is and the great cast it has, plot holes aside.

Green Book

A beautifully acted, powerful insight into an incredible friendship, placed within a practically perfect film. Top marks.

Daredevil

The first season is astounding, riveting, memorable, funny and utterly fantastic. The third almost lives up to that praise. The second has its moments. Overall, its an extremely solid take on the Man Without Fear and must-watch television for superhero fans.

Tim Minchin: So F**king Rock

An enjoyable but not particularly memorable live show from a brilliant performer.

Big Mouth

A surprisingly intelligent dissection of adolescence, puberty, and high school with a dark and lewd sense of humour that has utterly won me over.
