A 20th Century Fox Picture, Written and Directed by Taika Waititi. This is a film that I was really looking forward to and left the cinema feeling incredibly torn about. While it is undeniably a well made film and I have no issue satirising anything, I don’t feel the payoff actually justified the film. My …

His Dark Materials (2019) – TV Review
This large scale drama is based on Phillip Pullman’s epic novels and is one of the most expensive shows in the BBCs history, and in general, it is a big success. It was a very good series and connected mostly with a large audience. This epic fantasy is very difficult to adapt to the screen …

Little Women (2019) – Review
A Sony Picture, Written and Directed by Greta Gerwig. This is quite simply one of the best films of the year.

Midsommar (2019) – Review
An A24 Picture, Written and Directed by Ari Aster. This is one of the most talked about films of the year and I can see why. It is a look at toxic relationships and dealing with grief, told through the lens of a twisted fairytale. The Swedish folklore and striking imagery all adds to the …

Gavin & Stacey: Christmas Special (2019) – TV Review
Like seeing old friends again, this was a heart warming Christmas reunion. Gavin & Stacey is one of our most beloved, and my personal favourite, sitcoms in British history, and it ended over 10 years ago with a truly satisfying finale. Therefore it has been long assumed they would never make another, but James Corden …
