A perfectly cast Will Arnett plays a damaged half of a break-up and falls into stand-up comedy.
It’s a loose retelling of a part of Liverpudlian comedian John Bishop’s turn to the comedy life. But told from a very New York style setting.
It’s about middle-age, it’s about reinventing yourself, it’s about bareing your soul.
Laura Dern plays the more difficult part trying to get her story heard in this world and director Bradley Cooper does well to ensure she…
This plays out differently to what I was expecting a movie where Nic Cage goes after the people that stole his truffle pig would.
It doesn’t go the way of John Wick.
It starts veering into themes discussed in FX drama The Bear and then starts to go in different directions that you can conceive just probably wouldn’t.
A solid film with a very much reigned in Nicolas Cage. Worth it for the acting alone.
A Predator movie with a twist.
Giving a Yautja some personality, honour and comedy will certainly take a film in a different direction.
But fear not, this predator still sticks largely to hunting and killing and stays away from pratfalling.
The opening is very emotionally powerful and sets Dek up as a character we might be able to get behind. But Elle Fanning who plays a dual role, is having great fun exploring dark and light synths from the Weyland-Yutani production line.
And the cutest most savage predator to accompany them half way through the film.
Well worth visiting and hopefully Dek will return.
Well well well what have we here, an adaptation that supersedes the original in nearly every way.
It’s certainly an angrier more serious version of the source material, but with the famous authors blessing this is both faithful and a hell of a ride.
Edgar Wright is growing in stature with each film he makes and this is no exception, a big budget rollercoaster that barely takes a breath, boasting yet another star performance from “he’s so hot right now(mugathu)”…
