Latest Film Reviews

  • Cat Daddies (2022)
    Review preview for Cat Daddies

    In a way the film is as intangible as cat dander but it’s nice to see that nice people still inhabit this crazy world of ours

    A portrait of men whose lives have been changed by the love of their cats.
  • She's Allergic To Cats (2016)
    Review preview for She's Allergic To Cats

    I hope, for director Michael Reich’s sake, that the autobiographical elements of the story are exaggerated.

    A dog groomer who aspires to make an all-cat version of Carrie meets his dream girl.
  • Dogs Don't Wear Pants (2019)
    Review preview for Dogs Don't Wear Pants

    Dogs Don’t Wear Pants ultimately relishes its uncomfortable themes buoyed by a little humour and hopes of a life happy ever after for our two damaged human beings

    A widower is struggling years after his wife drowned... meeting Mona, a dominatrix, changes everything.
  • Toy Story 4 (2019)
    Review preview for Toy Story 4

    The simple search and rescue plot is more than adequate an adventure in which to indulge the antics of our original toys, and allows space to throw in a few choice newcomers.

    The gang go on a road trip with a new toy named Forky.
  • A Legacy Of Whining (2016)
    Review preview for A Legacy Of Whining

    This is a small niche film, not broad enough or funny enough for the mainstream, carried off on a tiny budget, but it means well.

    Ogre and Out.
  • Old Partner (2008)
    Review preview for Old Partner

    A thoroughly disarming horse-fly-on-the-wall documentary.

    Tony Sullivan · 4 out of 5
    Documentary about an elderly farmer, his wife and their loyal ox.
  • District 9 (2009)
    Review preview for District 9

    District 9 actually has some intelligence behind it and expects some in front of it, too.

    Tony Sullivan · 4.5 out of 5
