You know those movies that make you remember why it is that you love cinema? Happy to announce that Knives Out is one of those movies. I have elected to forget the period in my life where I had never experienced the joys of such a film. That is all of my life, but so be it! I don't know the last time I felt so fucking endeared to a movie. I love Knives Out's fearlessness; what it is covering…

By now, you're probably aware that Cats has had a reception not dissimilar to Harold Shipman at a nursing home Christmas party. Seemingly doomed from the start, Cats has went from a perturbing trailer to a career-ending car crash from which no one will recover. 1.5 star average? Yikes.
