What makes a film go to Heaven?
Dunkirk
It may not be for everyone and it seems unlikely to win the Best Picture Oscar, but Dunkirk at least brings something new to the war film table.
Phantom Thread
Paul Thomas Anderson's latest work is as intriguing as ever
The Shape of Water
Del Toro delivers a film with an unshakeable sense of love, both platonic and romantic, at its heart.
Fifty Shades Freed
It’s as exciting as a car ride with your brake-for-every-speed-bump grandmother, and about as spicy as milk.
Grease 2
This film isn’t automatic, systematic OR hydromatic. It’s Greased Frightnin’.
The Shop Around the Corner
Ernst Lubitsch’s The Shop Around the Corner is an irresistible classic that’ll make you forget you’re sat watching it in your pyjamas eating out of a jar of Nutella with a teaspoon. Don’t pretend you’re not, I know my demographic.
The Piano Teacher
Who needs love? Spend Valentine’s day watching The Piano Teacher instead!
Star Wars: The Last Jedi
The Last Jedi is a controversial but nonetheless important change-of-pace for the Star Wars franchise.
