A very enjoyable, if dark, film with a great performance from Benedict Cumberbatch. Give this a watch, it’s worth it. A dark but entertaining 8.0/10.0

Great fun, touching tribute to Harold Ramis. A surprisingly good sequel. A well made 8.5/10.0

Great fun, excellent cast, well paced. It would have been an absolute tragedy if the writer and director messed up this film given the cast, but thankfully they did not. Give it a watch, you’ll be glad you did. Am enjoyable romp worthy of an 8.5/10.0

Tom Hanks excels again in this bittersweet end-of-the-world story. This film tugs at the heartstrings, some might say in a saccarine way, but I enjoyed it a lot. An easy 8.0/10.0

A terrific film, a fantastic example of the cinematographer’s art. It’s hard to nit-pick, and that says a lot. My only criticism is that it had to end, and the sequel is a long way off. An amazing 9.5/10.0

Well cast, enjoyable thriller with dark comedic moments A fun 7.5/10.0

Ah, so many emotions here. Daniel Craig’s last outing as Bond. He was such a pleasant surprise when he first picked up the role, I had no idea at all how good he would be.

Well written and paced, great performances from Charlie Hunnan and the always excellent Rami Malek.

It’s understandably bleak, but I enjoyed this film. A...

A dark film about dark people in a very dark time. It would be wrong somehow to say it was enjoyable, but it was well made and well acted. Ben Kingsley was chilling, and Oscar Isaac was excellent too. A moving 8.0/10.0

Great fun, doesn’t take itself too seriously. Fantastic action scenes, well cast and paced. A fun 7.5/10.0
