Re: The Greatest Showman
I had heard fantastic things about this film. I love musicals and many friends had been to see it 2/3 times so I knew I was in for a great time! Unfortunately, my experience was very different. The story was well told, all actors gave excellent performances, but I did not get the overwhelming happin...

Re: Lady Bird
I only went to see this because of the oscar buzz, and I was not disappointed! Fantastic performances from all cast members. The mother-daughter relationship was played with humour and emotion which made me love them one moment and hate them another. I was expecting the story to be dragged out but t...

Re: I, Tonya
I was very impressed with this film. I love truss stories and some of the events in the film were so outrageous you know they had to be true. Margot Robbie played the central character perfectly, and the mother - both hilarious and heartbreaking. I think the mother and daughter relationship between ...

Re: Three Billboards outside Ebbing, Missouri
Only went to see this film because of the oscar buzz, but so glad I did as it was fantastic! Fantastic performances from entire cast! Such a heartbreaking topic, but dealt with grace and humour. I was totally engrossed throughout film, until the end which I feel did not give the viewers closure. How...

Re: Darkest Hour
Well I had high hopes for the film and was not disappointed! Performances from entire cast were great but Gary Oldman was OUTSTANDING! I just hope the humour, wit and passion he play Churchill as is true to life! The storyline is a complicated subject but was easy to follow in this film. A great way...

Re: Star Wars: The Last Jedi
As not a big Star Wars fan, and only swing the first three films, I went to see this film with an open mind. Now I am not very good at long films and was nervous about the length of 2 and a half hours. However, when the music started I got completely choked up and excited! The Stella cast did not di...

Re: Wonder
With a fabulous cast and fascinating topic I was looking forward to seeing this film, and I was not disappointed. The main subject was a boy with facial disfigurement starting school at the age of 10, after being home-schooled but his mother, played by Julia Roberts. As expected, the other children ...

Re: Paddington 2
As someone who has not seen the first Paddington film I was not especially keen to watch this one, but on a miserable afternoon thought I'd give it a go. And I was not disappointed! A heart-warming tale of friendship, family, and a community that rallies together in a fight against mis-justice. A fa...

Re: Murder on the Orient Express
I do not know the story and only went to see this film because all the 'All-star' cast. And I was NOT disappointed! Story told fantastically well. Great performances from each and ever cast member. I was on the edge of my seat until the end. The film was accompanied by a beautiful soundtrack (very s...
