  • The Accountant (2016)
    Review preview for The Accountant

    The action sequences are alright, but The Accountant falls into the common superheroic trap (or trope) of confusing origin stories with character development.

    Andrew Robertson · 3 out of 5
    As a math savant uncooks the books for a new client, the Treasury Department closes in on his activities, and the body count starts to rise.
  • Babylon (2022)
    Review preview for Babylon

    Babylon is disgusting, muddled in intent, absurd in its trajectory and at times baffling in its tonal choices. And yet I would not call a moment of its 189 minutes boring.

    Angus Wolfe Murray · 4.5 out of 5

  • Snow Day (2000)
    Review preview for Snow Day

    If you cared, you would weep. But you don't. You scream.

    Angus Wolfe Murray · 1 out of 5
    Students take revenge when their school is snowed in.
  • Youth In Revolt (2009)
    Review preview for Youth In Revolt

    This film is as shallow as its hero.

    Jennie Kermode · 2 out of 5
    In order to be near the girl he adores, young Nick Twisp has to get thrown out of his mother's house - which means he has to learn how to do bad things.
