    Would I Still Have Looked For You?
    "What if?" is a question that haunts Past Lives.
    It's a question we all think of time and again but sits as the central theme of this delicate and beautiful film as Nora and Hae Sung are forced to confront 'what could have been' after Nora emigrates from South Korea as a child and they reunite 20 years later.

    Celine Song pulls from her own experiences to craft a story about connection and…

    What Was I Made For?
    The great Barbenheimer War of 2023 has arrived. The cinemas are flooded with pink. 70mm IMAX film prints are pushing projectionists to their limits. Despite Oppenheimer's atomic power, it was no match for the might of Barbie.

    Packed to the brim with vivid colour, transporting audiences to an extravagant world full of Barbies, Kens and pink - There is much more to Barbie than meets the eye. A film that embraces the camp to help…

    ★★

    A Matter of Humiliation and Human Kindness.
    My expectations weren't exactly high for Expend4bles even with its beautiful title that crams a 4 in regardless if it fits or not, but even if you wanted a loud and bold action flick this unfortunately still manages to underdeliver.

    A wafer-thin plot is somehow stretched to create an almost 2-hour film that fails to build any stakes which is mighty impressive with a world war-inducing nuke as a central plot point. Besides…

    A Haunting in Venice

    ★★★½

    Every Murderer is Somebody's Old Friend.
    A much-needed reinvention after the unremarkable Death on the Nile, Hercule Poirot returns with a case that comes with an unexpected supernatural angle as he investigates A Haunting in Venice.

    Kenneth Branagh is back in the director's chair as well as sporting cinema's finest moustache as the famous detective as he miraculously finds himself at the centre of yet another murderous mystery. Based on Agatha Christie's 'Hallowe'en Party', the film takes advantage of the…

    ★★★★★

    Your Life is About to Start.
    Pixar has tackled our emotions, our childhoods, and even the monsters under our bed, so it makes sense that their next logical step would be to discuss the meaning of life.
    Soul is the story of Joe, who after losing his passion gets the chance to evaluate his life when he is transported out of his body to the great beyond. But more importantly, Soul is a clear and obvious reminder of why Pixar…

    Roald Dahl's Matilda the Musical

    ★★★★½

    Maybe Not All Stories Have Happy Endings.
    For those that haven't seen the West End adaptation, this new film immerses you in centre stage as it transports you to the darkly whimsical world of Roald Dahl in a musical take on Matilda.

    From its opening moments, the film makes you aware you are watching a musical with a capital M. From bright, colourful sets to tightly choreographed sequences set to the precise lyrics of Tim Minchin - it's a great…
