Bob Mann (459 KP) rated Toy Story 4 (2019) in Movies
Jul 23, 2019
Quality of animation and storytelling (1 more)
Mixture of high comedy and gut-wrenching emotion
Yes they Canada!
I was certain in my believe that TS4 would be a horrible misstep, following the beloved original trilogy! (And to be honest I wasn’t really as mad-keen on TS3 either!) As such, I really wasn’t fussed that due to holidays and work trips it’s been out a month before I’ve seen it. But how wrong I was! Pixar have really done it again and pulled a gem out of the bag.
Directed by Josh Cooley (as his first feature!), it’s a masterpiece, and cements itself firmly in my films of the year list.

Bob Mann (459 KP) rated Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark (2019) in Movies
Sep 8, 2019
Young cast - especially Zoe Margaret Colletti (1 more)
Spooky Stories that are gore-light in the main
Horror-lite yarn that might have benefitted from a 12A
Directed by “Troll Hunter” director André Øvredal, I really enjoyed this one. I’m not a massive fan of ‘slasher’ style horror films. I have no burning desire to be constantly reminded of what the inside of my body looks like. So this turned out to be much-more to my liking than the normal horror flick. It had enough spookiness to make me turn on the lights when I got back home, but not enough to pervade my dreams.

The Craggus (360 KP) rated Isn't It Romantic (2019) in Movies
Mar 7, 2019
Isn't It Romantic (2019)? Yep, it's also pretty funny!
There’s a gently subversive streak to Netflix’s latest ‘original’ offering “Isn’t It Romantic” as it sets out to undermine the worn-out romcom tropes while simultaneously adhering to the framework of the genre in this bright and breezy comedy that reunites Rebel Wilson and Adam Devine after “Pitch Perfect 3” cruelly tore them apart....

The Craggus (360 KP) rated Eighth Grade (2018) in Movies
Apr 23, 2019
Eighth Grade (2019) will make you remember what it's like to be 14 again - and very glad you're not!
The insightful writing and direction, the virtuoso camerawork and the careful balancing act between comedy and drama is grounded by such an astonishingly authentic and natural performance from Elsie Fisher that it feels like an enormous privilege to be granted this view into Kayla’s inner life...

The Craggus (360 KP) rated Colette (2018) in Movies
Jan 10, 2019
Colette (2019) sees Keira Knightly ghostwriting for Willy while enjoying fanny by gaslight.
Taking a few liberties with the Libertine life and times of celebrated French novelist Sidonie-Gabrielle Colette, “Colette” is a sumptuous and sensual but occasionally aimless and indulgent biopic that’s perhaps a little too interested in signposting the contemporary resonances than in providing a wider historical context to its subject’s life...

JUMPCUT ONLINE (77 KP) rated Ma (2019) in Movies
Jun 30, 2019
Ma is an absolutely wild ride of a film; it orbits you on social media for a couple of months before ghosting you and then coming back out of nowhere with some seriously WTF moments. It had me screaming with laughter and then screaming in terror, something that I find to be one of the most effective storytelling methods within the horror genre.

JUMPCUT ONLINE (77 KP) rated Godzilla: King of the Monsters (2019) in Movies
Jul 3, 2019
Godzilla: King of the Monsters isn’t the film that we were all waiting for. It isn’t even in the ‘so bad it’s good’ category. For what should have been a fun summer blockbuster full of excitement, it lacks the energy and spirit for a truly great Godzilla film and that is the biggest disappointment of all. Long live the King.
