The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent Movie Review

For hardcore fans of his complete movie catalogue, there are too many easter eggs to count. For the less obsessive it references enough of his mainstream fare to still make you a co-conspirator in the mirth. It definitely relies on you finding the actor’s core character amusing.   //   Cage plays a version of Cage that is in need of a career (and financial) bump after losing out on a work-defining role. He accepts a lucrative invitation to attend a birthday party for ...

Ambulance Movie Review

The action is relentless and you best not have vertigo as the overuse of drone footage will turn your stomach into knots. There is also an almost complete lack of believability in the reality of what takes place on the screen. Criminal laws are broken by the characters and physics laws by the director.   //   The action is set during a Los Angeles bank robbery gone wrong. This leads to a chase scene that lasts 90% of the film’s running time. Its outrageousness brings ...

Morbius Movie Review

Jared Leto plays the Michael in question and he puts his method-acting chops to good use. The inner conflict of Morbius, being a vampire but one who has a strong sense of right or wrong plays large in his characterisation. His efforts in keeping the blood lust at bay make his actions relatable.   //   We get to see the doc’s story from a very young age when he buddies up with Milo played as an adult by Matt Smith. They both suffer from a rare blood disease and this ...
