CINEMATIC EXPERIENCE NOT TO BE MISSED
REVIEW: Elvis 4 stars
THE mile-a-minute, never let up pace of the film (along with the myriad OTT Baz Luhrmann stylistic choices) may not be for everyone, but Austin Butler delivers an utterly convincing, enthralling take on the King that screams a cinematic experience that can’t be missed.

REVIEW: TOP GUN: MAVERICK - 5 STARS
Perfect sequel, perhaps better than the original
PETE Mitchell, callsign Maverick (Tom Cruise), has spent over 30 years as one of the Navy’s top aviators, doing exactly what he is best at - flying planes.

THE LOST CITY REVIEW - 4 STARS
Hilarious, enjoyable rom-com adventure
ADVENTURE returns to the big screen in The Lost City; a hilariously enjoyable, rom-com adventure hybrid full of snarky laughs and big-name cameos.

MORBIUS REVIEW - 2 STARS
Muddled with flashes of brilliance, but why?
MORIBUS is a film that isn’t so much bad or good, as confusing.

BELFAST - 5 STARS: A BEAUTIFUL MOVIE
Musing on the importance and extent of family
FILM REVIEW | JACOB RICHARDSON
Much like family, though at times the film may frustrate, ultimately you feel more fully realised and whole on leaving the cinema than on entering.

HOUSE OF GUCCI - 3 STARS
Good, but prone to excess
FILM REVIEW | JACOB RICHARDSON
House of Gucci is undeniably a good film; it’s just a little too bland, a little too safe, and a lot too long to be truly great.
