“But I wanted to see nonsense!”

Have we seen all of it now?

This faux Sherlock Holmes sure has got our hearts racing…

Don’t let the name fool you; Dirty Pictures isn’t a charming piece of erotica. Sure, it MENTIONS sex, but… never mind. Instead, the film actually offers an amusing look at the life of “the godfather of ecstasy”, Alexander Shulgin.

Banderas or bust.

In an industry stuffed with honking, plastic portrayals of first love, it’s deeply refreshing when you find a film that quietly hits the mark. Like Crazy, though perhaps sketched rather too broadly to leave a lasting impression, is a delicate, affecting take on the joys and sadnesses that come with finding your way through your first relationship, showcasing gently wonderful performances from stars Felicity Jones and Anton Yelchin. It’s not necessarily easy-going for anyone concerned, but then, what relationship is?

A warm, funny, unassuming and genuinely original take on the traditional road movie, Natural Selection is a confident little comedy-drama about faith, trust, shame and forgiveness. A startling debut from writer/director Robbie Pickering – you might as well watch it, seeing as this is a fellow we’ll be hearing a lot more from in the future.

Ah, Friday. Had a long week of being a grown-up and slogging your guts out at the office, wearing varying shades of grey or black and pretending to be happy about it? We pity you, we really do, which is why we’ve given you this alcoholic return to childhood with the vastly inappropriate Lion King drinking game. Let me hear you ROAR!

Have you ever got up one day and thought “Today, I’d really like to watch a drama about competing Talmudic scholars at an Israeli university”? No, neither had we. More fool us, frankly, because Footnote is absolutely superb – funny, poignant and cynical, it will draw you into a rarefied world you never knew existed.

Nobody wants the starring role in the zombie flick… apart from me.
