Time Out

Showalter and his cast clearly had a right giggle making this – and, for the most part, you will too.

It’s uncomfortable, it’s bombastic, but don’t listen to anyone who tells you it isn’t funny.

We watch Misty Green on the edge of our seats, wondering where she will land even as we can guess at the likeliest trajectory.

Minus Zero is the first R-rated Godzilla film, a monster movie that wants to take the legacy of World War II seriously and even nods to Italian neorealism. That final showdown, when it comes, is well worth the wait. If only it had been a bit shorter.

Tariq works hard to explore the dichotomies of faith and frailty, but Latif is so flawed that this effort risks feeling hollow.

This Sense and Sensibility is in its element out in the elements, untamed and free.

Ayer loves a men-with-guns movie, and he can’t help slipping in a handful of rah-rah combat flashbacks here. Happily, Heart of the Beast is mostly a gentler, more emotional film, with Training Day cinematographer Mauro Fiore making the most of the epic canvas – and Uber stealing the show from his A-list co-star.

Much like this well-intentioned but strange homage, Knife yields mixed results when it attempts to be an incisive anatomy of the stabbing. But as a testimony of a writer surviving hate, Gibney’s doc is still colourful and inspiring.

It’s whip-smart and exceptionally funny.

There’s a real genius to this kind of wordless storytelling. Aardman makes it look easy.
