Here is a list of our favourite movies that were released in on our shores this year (that is not Star Wars: The Force Awakens, because come on, that's basically a given at this point), in the form of a neat little supercut.
The film is brilliant. It shows that no matter the hype, a film can and should be able to deliver. New and old characters combine to move Star Wars into a new age, and if this film doesn't leave you on tenterhooks waiting for the next two, then nothing will!
Over the course of the film, it becomes clear that A Perfect Day really, really wants to be both a comedy and a drama, but struggles to find the right balance between the two.
It’s clear that director Ramin Bahrani is not afraid of making us feel uncomfortable. In 99 Homes, we are affronted by the harsh reality of unaffordable housing as the film places the systematic disadvantage of our economic model under the microscope.
Jam-packed with rapid-fire zingers and cleverly constructed comedic situations, Mistress America is Noah Baumbach’s most deliberately funny screenplay to date, quite possibly due to the involvement of co-writer and star Greta Gerwig.
I generally balk at the love dichotomy so often presented in movies – I’m certainly not one to gasp “Oh my stars I wonder who the young lass will choose?! How absolutely DELIGHTFUL to be young!” – but I feel that Brooklyn hits a deeper note than the surface may initially suggest.
Movies these days try too hard to please all audiences. I say just pick an approach and stick with it, who cares about people on dates. As the great Ron Swanson once said, “Never half ass two things, whole ass one thing”.
Learning to Drive follows Wendy (Patricia Clarkson), a book-reviewer who has been recently dumped up with by her cheating husband of 21 years. And quite predictably, thanks to the on-the-nose title, she decides to learn how to drive (shock, horror, gasp!)
Coming off the high from this year's Emmy awards, we take a look at 10 fantastic bottle episodes of television in the past decade.
Being a fan of Flight of the Conchords, the prospect of seeing Jemaine Clement back in his natural habitat (New York, obviously) was an exciting one. I walked into the film feeling quite confident that I’d be getting a few laughs in, apparently so was the lady who sat next to me. Her cackle was often so loud and piercing, I’d miss the punchline completely.
I’m going to admit something controversial. I liked the latest season of True Detective.
Please, withhold ditching your snide remarks and moldy fruit at me quite yet and let me explain myself.
In light of Mad Men's sweeping Emmy nominations for their final season, I've decided to celebrate with a Mad Men-style dance party by compiling all the dance scenes I could find from the show into one fun supercut. You're ver welcome.
We've combed through the remaining films of this season's Rev Film Fest program (curated by program director Jack Sargeant), and picked out the films that piqued our interests the most to help you with your movie marathon.
"Wild Tales" is a horrifically hysterical, playfully violent, and rousingly poignant thrill ride of revenge that is best experienced with minimal knowledge of what’s about to come.
"High Sparrow": The Stark children are forced to make difficult choices and Cersei finds a new ally in an excellent episode filled with intimate, poignant character moments.
Based on a true story, X + Y is a touching, beautiful and absolutely endearing experience. The acting is impeccable, bringing the character’s to life and allowing the audience to really relate to their hardships.
While Kumiko, The Treasure Hunter is commendable in its ambition; the film's execution of its central character's sombre tale is ultimately frustrating and alienating to its audience.
In a way, it can be argued that Girlhood is the spiritual successor to recent Oscar Best Picture loser Boyhood (come to think of it, both films would make the perfect double-feature for a movie night).
Taking audiences on a journey through a civil detente is a hard thing to achieve. Selma, directed by Ava DuVernay and produced by the likes of Oprah Winfrey, accomplishes the Hollywood glamour that audiences want in historical dramas.
