An interesting English sci-fi romance, Darren Fisher creates an alternate reality completely sold by the story instead of flashy visual effects, it has a fascinating concept (does free-will or fate determine our destiny) and is worth watching because of it, but is let down by the budget and some odd shot composition.
★★★✩✩
I’m into, uh, murders and executions mostly, so this dark and twisted adaption was delightful — now please excuse me, I have a table at Dorsia.
★★★★✩
A thoroughly enjoyable heist movie, that looks like it was fun for everyone involved (including the audience), with an exceptionally cool cast and stylish direction.
★★★★✩
The much anticipated follow-up collaboration between Nicolas Winding Refn and Ryan Gosling was, by all accounts, a clusterfuck behind the scenes, but that didn’t stop it from being a nicely shot and engrossing movie even if it is totally incoherent.
★★★✩✩
Another original science-fiction script from Cahill and Marling, it hits notes similar to their previous collaboration Another Earth around wonder, curiosity, and discovery, and asks some thought-provoking questions around science and spirituality.
