Review of Interstellar (2014)

By Jon Lyus (167) for HeyUGuys (1,461) on 29 Oct 2014

Nolan's complex story, his most visually pleasing genre piece and arguably his most complex film to date…

Review of Listen Up Philip (2014)

By Jon Lyus (167) for HeyUGuys (1,461) on 09 Oct 2014

The film feels very intimate, something largely helped by the hand-held, often shaky, camerawork and 16mm print and everything works to add…

Review of The Calling (2014)

By Jon Lyus (167) for HeyUGuys (1,461) on 09 Oct 2014

There is almost nothing about The Calling that sets it aside from a hundreds of crime thrillers that are churned out from Hollywood year in, year out…

Review of Still the Enemy Within (2014)

By Jon Lyus (167) for HeyUGuys (1,461) on 06 Oct 2014

Should be compulsory viewing not only for school students learning about British history, but also for anyone who has even a remote interest…

Review of Life After Beth (2014)

By Jon Lyus (167) for HeyUGuys (1,461) on 02 Oct 2014

It seems to be fighting a battle against itself, and is visibly losing the closer it gets to its deflated climax…

Review of Tony Benn: Will and Testament (2014)

By Jon Lyus (167) for HeyUGuys (1,461) on 02 Oct 2014

Will and Testament is an an ode to Tony Benn's life work, and the humour, humility and humanity he filled it with every step of the way…

Review of The Riot Club (2014)

By Jon Lyus (167) for HeyUGuys (1,461) on 18 Sep 2014

An occasionally fun, but grotesquely caricatured and ultimately flawed mockery of the upper-classes…

Review of 20,000 Days on Earth (2014)

By Jon Lyus (167) for HeyUGuys (1,461) on 18 Sep 2014

You'll never know quite when 20,000 Days on Earth ends, or when it begins - but the feeling of being caught up right in the middle of it is…

Review of Open Windows (2014)

By Jon Lyus (167) for HeyUGuys (1,461) on 18 Sep 2014

Whilst it is a world that looks similar to ours, it exists separately, functioning by a set of implausible possibilities that add spice to…

Review of Let's Be Cops (2014)

By Jon Lyus (167) for HeyUGuys (1,461) on 28 Aug 2014

There are enough jokes to help steady the narrative back in the right direction. Unfortunately, it's just not quite enough to keep you on board…

Review of Lilting (2014)

By Jon Lyus (167) for HeyUGuys (1,461) on 28 Aug 2014

The film comes from a really genuine place, but sadly just doesn't quite reach far enough in terms of its exploration of a notoriously difficult…

Review of All This Mayhem (2014)

By Jon Lyus (167) for HeyUGuys (1,461) on 19 Jun 2014

A cautionary tale for sure, it is also a charismatic, frantic and utterly engrossing adventure into the drop we all face when partying on the summit…

Review of Bright Days Ahead (2013)

By Jon Lyus (167) for HeyUGuys (1,461) on 19 Jun 2014

Bright Days Ahead is a fitting title for a story about one woman's transition at a turning point of her life where time is no longer her enemy,…

Review of The Overnighters (2014)

By Jon Lyus (167) for HeyUGuys (1,461) on 19 Jun 2014

The Overnighters is as worthy a case for additional industry across the First World than any political speech…

Review of The Art of the Steal (2013)

By Jon Lyus (167) for HeyUGuys (1,461) on 19 Jun 2014

With one contrived plot twist too many the final act descends into a fug of farce stealing the film's early promise…

Review of Concerning Violence (2014)

By Jon Lyus (167) for HeyUGuys (1,461) on 09 Jun 2014

While the linear presentation of the film lacks the rigorous artistry of the films of, say, Yervant Gianikian and Angela Ricci Lucchi, it does…

Review of We Are Many (2014)

By Jon Lyus (167) for HeyUGuys (1,461) on 05 Jun 2014

We Are Many however conveys the roots of this action in a spirited, passionate and invigorating account of vocal democracy…

Review of 22 Jump Street (2014)

By Jon Lyus (167) for HeyUGuys (1,461) on 03 Jun 2014

A sequel that's just as funny, heartwarming and well-crafted as the original…

Review of The Punk Singer (2013)

By Jon Lyus (167) for HeyUGuys (1,461) on 21 May 2014

The Punk Singer is the sort of film that makes you want to shriek with a hectic muddle of rage, adoration and passion! A must-see piece of cinema…

Review of Top Dog (2014)

By Jon Lyus (167) for HeyUGuys (1,461) on 20 May 2014

A film with some substance as well as style…
