The Princess Switch (2018) Review

Netflix’s Great Christmas Bake-Off!

Aquaman (2018) Review

Is the DCEU better down where it’s wetter? Imagine, ten years ago, if someone had told you the future of the DC cinematic universe would rest on the shoulders of…Aquaman.

Suspiria (2018) Review Horror

Suspiria (2018) Review

Suspiria’s strictly crone dancing may leave you bewitched, bothered and a little bewildered. It takes nerve and vision to remake something as cinematically revered as “Suspiria” so there’s no doubting director Luca Guadagnino’s ambition and confidence. In reimagining the sacred, Guadagnino manages to take the bones of the original and reshape them into something disturbingly ..
