Samuel Brace on Marvel’s Iron Fist… Iron Fist is not good. That’s what you’ve been hearing in the build up to Netflix’s new Marvel series. You’ve been hearing that it is the first misfire from Marvel’s Netflix venture, a flop, a bag full of nothing good. Reviews have been indifferent to bad, its metacritic score […]
Why We Don’t Need More Matrix Movies
This week, Neil Calloway argues against a return for The Matrix… So, we’re getting another load of Matrix films. Or we will be if Warner Bros get their way. It would be easy just to throw my hands up in the air and go “Oh, I’m sick of reboots, can’t we have something original?” but […]
Is Disney’s Beauty and the Beast a misogynist horror story?
Anghus Houvouras on Disney’s Beauty and the Beast… Walt Disney was a visionary who created the most powerful entertainment industry the world has ever known.

Can we all just admit the Golden Globes are kind of terrible?
Anghus Houvouras on the Golden Globe Awards… This headline feels redundant, as if it’s a deeply held belief by 88% of the civilized world.

Get Out: Social Commentary in the Horror Genre
Tony Black on Get Out and social commentary in the horror genre… A romper stomper of a low budget hit, Get Out is the first breakout picture of 2017 and may end up being the biggest. Jordan Peele’s tense tale isn’t just an exercise in horror thriller theatrics, it’s also the first of four ‘social […]
Free Fire: The 70’s Crime Pictures It Takes a Bullet From
Tony Black on Free Fire… Let’s be honest, if you’ve seen Free Fire, you’ll know it’s not particularly like a lot of the 1970’s crime films that, on the face of it, Ben Wheatley’s movie would sit alongside. This pulpy, lean slice of comic violence owes more to the early 90’s stylistics of down’n’dirty Tarantino […]

Interview – Beauty and the Beast star Luke Evans
Amon Warmann chats with Beauty and the Beast star Luke Evans… While ‘Tale as Old as Time’ may be the most well-known song in Beauty and the Beast, the musical number for the Gaston is arguably even more beloved. Finding an actor who could not only do justice to that iconic song but also embody […]
Star Wars Identities – The Exhibition @ The O2 London Review
Thomas Harris reviews Star Wars Identities – The Exhibition at the O2… The 02 Arena, somewhat appropriately, looks a hell of a lot like a monolithic spacecraft descended upon Greenwich. With it’s protruding antennae and it’s vast almost cityscape-come-Brazil-capitalist-hell hole underbelly, it’s an appropriate fit for an exhibition celebrating all things Star Wars. Past restaurants, an […]
