  • In The Heart Of The Sea (2015)
    Review preview for In The Heart Of The Sea

    Class and experience divisions form the bulk of the interpersonal drama and it’s as predictable as expected, with the added tedium of Hemsworth apparently defaulting back to weirdly out of place Asgardian diction, bellowing like Thor at every little thing

    Luke Shaw · 2.5 out of 5
    Recounting of the tale that went on to inspire Moby Dick.
  • Malice In Wonderland (2009)
    Review preview for Malice In Wonderland

    The off-kilter predicaments at times feel like increasingly disconnected sketches and the narrative, for the most part, just wanders along as wide-eyed and disorientated as Alice herself.

    James Gracey · 3 out of 5
    Lewis Carrol's Alice gets a gangster makeover.
  • Mangrove (2020)
    Review preview for Mangrove

    The ease with which McQueen shifts the tone from very serious argument to light-hearted banter is sterling.

    Anne-Katrin Titze · 5 out of 5

  • The Toll (2021)
    Review preview for The Toll

    Much of the humour in the film depends on contrasting viewers' expectations of rural life with the paraphernalia of Sixties spy movies and Seventies cop shows.

    Jennie Kermode · 2 out of 5
    A toll booth operator's secret past comes back to haunt him.
