Whilst certainly not as memorable as his previous works, The Phoenician Scheme still brings Anderson’s classic charm and style in spades. 

At a brisk 95 minutes, Drop is the kind of taut, grown-up genre film that feels increasingly rare.

It’s a post-Bluey world and children deserve better from animated dog properties, let alone adults who might be drawn in by Dog Man’s appealing art.

Steven Soderbergh continues his prolific ‘post-retirement’ run with Black Bag, a tightly-wound spy thriller that is as cleverly composed as it is devilishly paranoid.

Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy is a tale bound to resonate with every woman’s experiences.

As far as January horror movies go, you could do worse, but howling about Wolf Man, you will not be.

Nothing in the film really ‘fails’, per se, and if there were a universal, objective checklist of things that make a Good Movie–there isn’t, by the way–The Brutalist meets them all.
