Review - The End
Joshua Oppenheimer's post apocalyptic musical, THE END is a dense emotional journey to the centre of the earth. A misfire of ambition and talent that feels more than a whisper than a showstopper.
Brutalism, A Process
Brady Corbet's The Brutalist is a perfect example of a cinematic, enigmatic voice pushing against the commercialism of the industry. Bold, brave and a visceral tour-de-force, we sat down with director Brady Corbet to discuss the intricacies of developing a film that goes against the rationale of the modern commercialism of the movie industry.
Review - The Brutalist
Brady Corbet's The Brutalist is a generational towering Prometheus; a 215 minute journey across continents and decades of a man searching for a new beginning.

Edward Berger's Conclave is a kinetic political thriller where the Sistine Chapel turns into a taut courtroom procedural. A who-dun-it in the midst of the Holy See; cardinals twist and turn their way to the throne, all the in shadow of God.

Osgood Perkins’ Longlegs is a nightmarishly visceral exercise in unsettling malevolent horror.

Review - Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes
Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes ushers in a new era of the franchise while paying homage to Caesar’s legacy. While the visuals and set pieces elevate the film tremendously; the film overstays its new chapter by treading on familiar ground and a glacial pace.
Review - Civil War
Civil War is an excellent, violent exploration on how we choose to end the story, presciently arriving to theatres at a time when all the safeguards to the collapse seem to be tenuously holding together
