film review
Let Him Go (15): NOT a joyous affair, but delivers Oscar-worthy performances.
One Mann’s Movies Review of “Let Him Go”: a slow-burning but ultimately gritty drama of feuding grandparents set in the late 50’s / early 60’s. Defiantly un-festive! 3.5/5.
WW:84 (12A) – Well Worth Waiting for Gadot!
One Mann’s Movies Film Review of “Wonder Woman 1984”: Patty Jenkins delivers a rip-roaring popcorn blockbuster with real heart. Gal Gadot excels. 4/5.
Mank (12A): divines for Oscar Gold in a sea of Pyrites.
A One Mann’s Movies review of Mank – a delicious slice of vintage 40’s Hollywood recreated around the writing of Citizen Kane. It’s a cerebral triumph from David Fincher and glorious to look at. Recommended. 4.5/5.
Honest Thief (15): proof that unpredictability is highly overrated.
One Mann’s Movies Film Review of “Honest Thief”: Neeson back on very familiar territory, but I found it an entertaining piece of thriller hocum. Park brain at door and enjoy. 3/5.
