Saw this at the Wimbledon Curzon (first time I have been to a screening there). It was billed as a comedy, but the 2 hour 42 minute joke was built around a wig and a pair of false teeth. Mildly amusing at first - but by the end of the film that joke had been done to death. There were very few laugh-...

Saw this yesterday at Wimbledon Odeon. It followed the story of Desmond Doss a Seventh Day Adventist who, despite being a pacifist, volunteered for the army as he wanted to do his bit during the 2nd world war. He was ridiculed and bullied all the way through training and was nearly court-martialled ...

Saw this yesterday in the Vue Piccadilly Circus. A very moving, emotional and ultimately uplifting film, it traced the story of a five-year-old boy who got lost hundreds of miles away from his home and eventually ended up getting adopted in Australia. The first half dealt with five-year-old Saroo an...

Saw this in a half-full Wimbledon Odeon yesterday. I was absolutely mesmerized by this film – the cinematography completely blew me away. I loved the story of Aisholpan the Mongolian teenager who, against tradition, wanted to be a female Eagle Hunter and win the coveted top award at the annual Golde...

Saw this yesterday in an impeccably clean Kingston Odeon (my last tweet about the cinema being consistently dirty obviously has had some effect!). I was expecting this to be a run-of-the-mill, coming-of-age teen flick, but, I have to admit, I was pleasantly surprised. We follow the story of 17-year ...

Saw this in Wimbledon Odeon. I had already seen some trailers and really wanted to see this film and it did not disappoint. Brad Pitt was excellent as Max/Maurice, the Canadian sent to Casablanca on an espionage mission. Marion Cotillard was likewise excellent as his French companion (later on to be...

Saw this last night at Piccadilly Circus Vue. It was a very complicated mish-mash of a film. The plot was overly complex and the film couldn’t decide if it wanted to be a financial intrigue film or an action film. Ben Affleck played the socially inept, unemotional Accountant – which was good because...

Saw this last night in the, as usual, very-dirty Kingston Odeon. Having just finished the book about ten days ago, I was much looking forward to seeing the film, and, apart from a couple of deviations from the plot-line, I thought it was very true to the book. Of course, you cannot encompass all the...

Saw this last night in Wimbledon. Daniel Blake was an elderly man who had worked all of his life as a carpenter until he had a heart attack. He wanted to work and people wanted to employ him, but he was unable to work until he had fully recuperated and this is where we witness how the system let him...

Saw this last night at the European Premiere at the Odeon Leicester Square (another walk on the red carpet for me!). Great introduction by the director, Mira Nair and the film’s stars David Oyelowo and Lupita Nyong'o were also present. It was a lovely “underdog film” about Phiona Mutesi – a 14-year ...
