The Stronghold, 2021 - ★★★
Glad I’ve already been to Marseille because I’m not sure this would encourage me to visit.
Signature Move, 2017 - ★★
Less wrestling than I expected. More gay than I expected. Make of that what you will.
The Old Guard 2, 2025 - ★★
Only really deserving of 1 star (it’s an entirely unnecessary and poorly thought out film) but gets the second because, well, Charlize Theron.
Saltburn, 2023 - ★★★
As ever I let the dust settle when everyone is talking about a film. It’s visually appealing and very well acted. Has the odd one-liner that elicited a laugh and a few cringe inducing moments. But otherwise, really, what was all the fuss about?
Dreams (Sex Love), 2024 - ★★★½
I was a little worried 20 minutes in that this was going to be a 90minute monologue from an unreliable narrator. Thankfully not.
What we did get was multiple perspectives on a story and unanswered questions on truth, love, power and infatuation.

Parasite, 2019 - ★★★★
Amazing how it’s taken me so long to watch this. I wonder if I’d seen it amidst the hype it would have got 5 stars. Nearly, but not quite perfect in my eyes.
