Search: Starring Tessa Thompson

Garland takes us into a world as beautiful as it is alien, a dazzling cinematic landscape that deserves to be seen on the big screen.

Directors Joe and Anthony Russo use the length to explore more than one significant theme in depth and to shift tone markedly from hour to hour.

As a first-time director, Jordan acquits himself well.

Coogler draws on the traditional elements of Rocky's success - strength of character in adversity, old-fashioned romance and, of course, a climactic fight - and tricks them out for the mobile phone generation to give them a new lease of life.

DaCosta has managed to create something which feels acutely contemporary and fresh.

Thompson's forceful, charismatic performance brings life to what could have been a relentlessly grim film, but it also unbalances the drama somewhat.

So, yes, this film is derivative, yes, it is predictable, but it still retains some charm.

The role is a gift for Negga, who has always evinced considerable talent but has not previously had the chance to demonstrate her abilities to this extent.

I've seen it described as a film with a twist but that suggests it's got just one. It's full of them, it's made of them, it reels and gyres and tumbles into something special.

A merchandising rather than mythologising opportunity..

This really is the funniest, campest mainstream superhero film I can remember since the Adam West incarnation of Batman.

Driven to the edge, where sentences silently suicide, this uneventful, thoughtless and infantile pap has beaten me.
