When I look back at the films that mean the most to me, certain names come up again and again. These directors may work in completely different genres, but they all create stories that stay with me in one way or another. Christopher Nolan Interstellar, Oppenheimer, Inception, Dunkirk Nolan’s films were some of the first…
Over the Shoulder was lucky to go to an advanced screening in the West End of the worldwide hit that is SpongeBob a few weeks ago on a cold Sunday morning, and it was a blast! Food and drinks were provided and Spongebob himself was there to welcome us and provide us with a photo…
With cinema constantly evolving and streaming platforms becoming more dominant, the theatrical experience feels more important than ever. Studio deals with companies like Warner Bros and Netflix continue to blur the line between streaming and cinema releases, raising questions about the future of movie theatres. Despite that uncertainty, 2026 is shaping up to be a…
They say that nearly all movies date, just some quicker than others. Think of the number of thrillers that, before mobile phones, revolved around telephone boxes, couples sleeping in separate beds, or the stop-motion special effects of the 1960s. These things might look quaint now, but they’re usually harmless reminders of the era in which…

All we really want is to see our lovers make it to the…
The Golden Globes promised a reinvention this year new voters, new systems, new energy and yes, some things genuinely have changed. But here we are again, staring at a nominations list that somehow manages to feel both brand-new and déjà vu at the same time. The same old shows and the same old faces pop up, reminding…
Released in 1957 this classic story of justice, dignity and the fight for what is right unbelievably won no oscars at that year’s ceremony. It is now considered one of the greatest films ever made and sits comfortably in my all time top 10. There are no special effects, no grand sets and no over…
I don’t know what it is about this year’s Christmas movies, but they just aren’t hitting the same way they have in recent years. My Secret Santa had so much potential, and on paper it should have been one of the charming holiday standouts of the season. The premise is genuinely sweet: a single mom named…
