Review of The Grinch (2018)

By Edward Porter (366) for Sunday Times (UK) (753) on 12 Nov 2018

There's no great originality or charm in the movie as a whole, but that comedy - coupled with general perkiness - is enough to make it an adequate…

Review of Mirai (2018)

By Edward Porter (366) for Sunday Times (UK) (753) on 05 Nov 2018

Some scenes are mawkish, but most of it is enchanting, and it's grounded in a sweetly accurate study of how four-year-olds move…

Review of Coco (2017)

By Edward Porter (366) for Sunday Times (UK) (753) on 22 Oct 2018

The bones of the plot may be a touch more cumbersome than they should have been, but the tale is superbly vivified with humour, visual finery…

Review of Smallfoot (2018)

By Edward Porter (366) for Sunday Times (UK) (753) on 14 Oct 2018

The movie fares better with something on which most folk are already in happy agreement: the fun to be had from Looney Tunes-style slapstick…

Review of Bad Times at the El Royale (2018)

By Edward Porter (366) for Sunday Times (UK) (753) on 14 Oct 2018

Its early pizzazz is delicious, but when the story's jigsaw pieces are finally all in place, the picture revealed is a bit too ordinary…

Review of Mandy (2018)

By Edward Porter (366) for Sunday Times (UK) (753) on 14 Oct 2018

Set in 1983, the film may in some ways resemble an ultraviolent horror movie from those days, but its pastiching is enhanced both by parodic…

Review of Venom (2018)

By Edward Porter (366) for Sunday Times (UK) (753) on 07 Oct 2018

Its drama is prosaic and the big action finale...devolves into a whirl of obvious CGI…

Review of Blindspotting (2018)

By Edward Porter (366) for Sunday Times (UK) (753) on 07 Oct 2018

One fruit of all that go-getting energy is a fast, rhythmical narrative style, enhanced by a bit of humour; another is the passion and freshness…

Review of Johnny English Strikes Again (2018)

By Edward Porter (366) for Sunday Times (UK) (753) on 07 Oct 2018

The comic routines arrive in a constant flow, and they are all extremely silly, conceived on a pretty large scale and performed by Atkinson…

Review of Skate Kitchen (2018)

By Edward Porter (366) for Sunday Times (UK) (753) on 04 Oct 2018

They are non-professional actors playing versions of themselves, and the naturalism of their conversations--and of their gliding excursions…

Review of Two for Joy (2018)

By Edward Porter (366) for Sunday Times (UK) (753) on 04 Oct 2018

It's well acted, but in its adherence to some of the current trends in social realism--a young person's viewpoint, a slightly arty style--it's…

Review of Anchor and Hope (2017)

By Edward Porter (366) for Sunday Times (UK) (753) on 04 Oct 2018

This origin makes itself felt in the casting, in brief bits of Spanish dialogue and in glimpses of expat Spanish culture, giving the movie…

Review of The Escape (2017)

By Edward Porter (366) for Sunday Times (UK) (753) on 05 Aug 2018

Yet the dreariness of Tara's marriage to a dull bloke (Dominic Cooper) is also rather a bore for viewers, and when she tries to break free,…

Review of The Escape (2018)

By Edward Porter (366) for Sunday Times (UK) (753) on 05 Aug 2018

Yet the dreariness of Tara's marriage to a dull bloke (Dominic Cooper) is also rather a bore for viewers, and when she tries to break free,…

Review of Apostasy (2017)

By Edward Porter (366) for Sunday Times (UK) (753) on 29 Jul 2018

It's a potent story of individuals and it understands the fear any of us might feel if our place in a family or a community was threatened…

Review of Spitfire (2018)

By Edward Porter (366) for Sunday Times (UK) (753) on 22 Jul 2018

It's quite a sedate film, rarely bringing the terrors of aerial combat to life and never tiring of present-day shots of Spitfires above green…

Review of A Prayer Before Dawn (2018)

By Edward Porter (366) for Sunday Times (UK) (753) on 22 Jul 2018

Jean-Stéphane Sauvaire's film is a bit ludicrous in its grim extremes, yet it's made with skill, and Cole is always good at conveying sensitivity…

Review of Generation Wealth (2018)

By Edward Porter (366) for Sunday Times (UK) (753) on 22 Jul 2018

It has only a few punchy moments and lots of dull generalisations about the effects of capitalism and the Kardashians…

Review of Hotel Artemis (2018)

By Edward Porter (366) for Sunday Times (UK) (753) on 22 Jul 2018

The film has a bit of life, not least because Jodie Foster plays the hospital's twitchy doctor…

Review of Path of Blood (2018)

By Edward Porter (366) for Sunday Times (UK) (753) on 17 Jul 2018

All in all, though, it's a film that shows too much - shots of dead bodies - and says too little…
