Review of The Professor (2019)

By Fionnuala Halligan (367) for Screen International (2,241) on 13 May 2019

Sometimes a bad film is just a bad film, but Depp is most likely to pay the price…

Review of Yesterday (2019)

By Fionnuala Halligan (367) for Screen Daily (1,021) on 04 May 2019

Yesterday is a film we’re all familiar with, for better or worse…

Review of Yesterday (2019)

Yesterday is a film we’re all familiar with, for better or worse…

Review of A Dog's Journey (2019)

By Fionnuala Halligan (367) for Screen International (2,241) on 30 Apr 2019

A Dog’s Journey is certainly manipulative - humans aren’t safe here either, with a significant cancer side-plot…

Review of The Aftermath (2019)

By Fionnuala Halligan (367) for Screen International (2,241) on 18 Feb 2019

The Aftermath works best when looking at the bewildered people who have been left behind, literally, to pick up the pieces…

Review of Light of My Life (2019)

By Fionnuala Halligan (367) for Screen International (2,241) on 14 Feb 2019

A superb performance by Affleck, who constructs a touching and believable rapport with his 11 year-old co-star, grounds his low-key directorial…

Review of The Souvenir (2019)

By Fionnuala Halligan (367) for Screen International (2,241) on 02 Feb 2019

This portrait of the artist as a young film-maker will certainly stand the test of time…

Review of Photograph (2019)

By Fionnuala Halligan (367) for Screen International (2,241) on 01 Feb 2019

Photograph’s deliberate pace does bring some rich rewards for the patient viewer, while a lovely ending feels like a throwback to the old-fashioned…

Review of Glass (2019)

By Fionnuala Halligan (367) for Screen International (2,241) on 09 Jan 2019

Despite the pyrotechnics of McAvoy’s performances and Willis’s grounded conviction, there’s just not enough here past the high concept…

Review of They Shall Not Grow Old (2018)

By Fionnuala Halligan (367) for Screen International (2,241) on 18 Dec 2018

Jackson’s film is more than a technical tribute: it’s a testament to the bravery and camaraderie of the soldiers, the memory of which has…

Review of Mary Poppins Returns (2018)

By Fionnuala Halligan (367) for Screen International (2,241) on 12 Dec 2018

This is a big-hearted song and dance spectacle for the entire family in which everyone laughs at the same jokes…

Review of Pecking Order (2017)

By Fionnuala Halligan (367) for Screen International (2,241) on 19 Nov 2018

While competitive chicken showing in New Zealand may seem pretty niche, the story of human obsession is universal and, in Martinov's hands,…

Review of Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald (2018)

By Fionnuala Halligan (367) for Screen International (2,241) on 08 Nov 2018

There’s real magic here, and nothing fake about the emotions which guide it…

Review of mid90s (2018)

By Fionnuala Halligan (367) for Screen International (2,241) on 17 Oct 2018

Whether Hill’s debut as a writer-director is drawn entirely, or partly, from personal experience seems a moot point: there’s a sufficient…

Review of Black '47 (2018)

By Fionnuala Halligan (367) for Screen International (2,241) on 25 Sep 2018

Using the Great Hunger as a backdrop for a revenge western is an interesting way to exorcise old ghosts, but the end result drains pathos from…

Review of Don't Leave Home (2018)

By Fionnuala Halligan (367) for Screen International (2,241) on 12 Sep 2018

Slow, deliberate and often unexpectedly funny, Michael Tully’s (Ping Pong Summer) contribution to the ever-growing Irish horror catalogue…

Review of Greta (2019)

By Fionnuala Halligan (367) for Screen International (2,241) on 09 Sep 2018

Greta is best read as tongue-in-cheek femme fun…

Review of Widows (2018)

By Fionnuala Halligan (367) for Screen International (2,241) on 08 Sep 2018

The distinguishing, and perhaps unsurprising element - given McQueen’s strong characterisation in the past – is that each of the film’s…
