Denis Villeneuve Ranked - HERE
Dune, one of my two most anticipated films of the year, has finally arrived after a long wait and I’m happy to say it did not disappoint me in the slightest. Part one of (hopefully) a two-part saga from Denis Villeneuve, it’s based on the first half of the classic sci-fi novel from Frank Herbert and it’s one of the most jaw dropping experiences I’ve experienced in a theatre this year.…

Halloween Kills takes place after the 2018 franchise revival as it follows right where that film ended as Michael Myers continues his killing spree while the town he’s terrorizing attempts to fight back. I actually was a fan of the 2018 film so I was looking forward to this one while also tampering my expectations knowing it wouldn’t give concrete answers because the third film is coming. I think this is a fun instalment but…

I found the first two in this series to be objectively awful but just enough of a guilty pleasure that it became enjoyable, this third chapter on the other hand, is just plain bad. It seems…

I have been eagerly anticipating Ridley Scott’s The Last Duel since the first set photos were released before the pandemic even started and I was so happy to be able to finally see it opening night after all this time. Told in three parts, it focuses on three separate views of a series of events, mainly surrounding the titular duel and the horrific things that lead up to it. This is…

Prisoners was my first introduction to Denis Villeneuve back in 2013 when I saw it in theatres not knowing what to expect and I knew right after I saw it that I had watched something special, eight years later and this is easily one of my all-time favourite films and one that will never get old. I’ve seen it a few times now but this was my…
