Review of Golden Years (2017)

By Matthew Bond (673) for The Mail on Sunday (UK) (704) on 23 Oct 2017

It's a lovely idea but the execution falls short on every count, hampered by some strange casting, some seriously misfiring comedy and a screenplay…

Review of Rock the Kasbah (2015)

By Matthew Bond (673) for The Mail on Sunday (UK) (704) on 23 Oct 2017

This is directed by Barry Levinson, but anyone hoping for another Good Morning, Vietnam will be disappointed, despite the occasional brilliant…

Review of The Forest (2016)

By Matthew Bond (673) for The Mail on Sunday (UK) (704) on 23 Oct 2017

Dormer is a refreshing presence but the film is short of genuine, grown-up scares…

Review of Trumbo (2015)

By Matthew Bond (673) for The Mail on Sunday (UK) (704) on 23 Oct 2017

This all sounds rather grim and ever-so slightly worthy stuff, but Cranston's performance brings it properly to life, capturing not just the…

Review of Eddie the Eagle (2016)

By Matthew Bond (673) for The Mail on Sunday (UK) (704) on 23 Oct 2017

I didn't warm to Egerton at all in Kingsman but -- perhaps egged on by the starry company -- he's excellent here, delivering an Eddie who is…

Review of Grimsby (2016)

By Matthew Bond (673) for The Mail on Sunday (UK) (704) on 23 Oct 2017

The shaming truth is that I was amused; so amused that on several occasions I had to wipe tears of laughter from my eyes…

Review of Boulevard (2014)

By Matthew Bond (673) for The Mail on Sunday (UK) (704) on 23 Oct 2017

It's slow, atmospheric and rather good, with the underlying sadness that Williams brought to most of his serious roles…

Review of Kung Fu Panda 3 (2016)

By Matthew Bond (673) for The Mail on Sunday (UK) (704) on 23 Oct 2017

Long on pandas but distinctly short of magic, humour and, notably, the sort of visual spectacle we've come to expect…

Review of Dheepan (2015)

By Matthew Bond (673) for The Mail on Sunday (UK) (704) on 23 Oct 2017

The final reel is violent, melodramatic and implausible…

Review of Victoria (2015)

By Matthew Bond (673) for The Mail on Sunday (UK) (704) on 23 Oct 2017

One moment of undeniable brilliance explains why she embarks on such a dangerous nocturnal adventure but can't stop the film from slowly descending…

Review of Bone Tomahawk (2015)

By Matthew Bond (673) for The Mail on Sunday (UK) (704) on 23 Oct 2017

Bone Tomahawk begins and ends with moments of such sickening violence it's difficult to remember that what comes in between is actually rather…

Review of Demolition (2016)

By Matthew Bond (673) for The Mail on Sunday (UK) (704) on 23 Oct 2017

This quirky, bittersweet comedy-drama spends too long feeling contrived and compares poorly with one of Adam Sandler's better films, Reign…

Review of Welcome to Me (2015)

By Matthew Bond (673) for The Mail on Sunday (UK) (704) on 23 Oct 2017

This is one of those discomfiting films where you don't know whether to laugh or cry - Alice is self-obsessed and a bit unlikable too - and…

Review of A Bigger Splash (2015)

By Matthew Bond (673) for The Mail on Sunday (UK) (704) on 23 Oct 2017

I remained grateful for its sunshine, its sexiness -- and those slithering serpentine metaphors…

Review of Triple 9 (2016)

By Matthew Bond (673) for The Mail on Sunday (UK) (704) on 23 Oct 2017

Goodness, this is an unpleasant, unlikeable and pointlessly complicated picture…

Review of Eye in the Sky (2015)

By Matthew Bond (673) for The Mail on Sunday (UK) (704) on 23 Oct 2017

Mirren is unexpectedly gung-ho, the already much-missed Rickman gets better as some slightly jarring moments of early comedy recede, and Monica…

Review of The Man Who Knew Infinity (2016)

By Matthew Bond (673) for The Mail on Sunday (UK) (704) on 23 Oct 2017

Dev Patel as Ramanujan and Jeremy Irons as his Cambridge mentor both impress and there's a top-notch supporting cast that includes Toby Jones,…

Review of 10 Cloverfield Lane (2016)

By Matthew Bond (673) for The Mail on Sunday (UK) (704) on 23 Oct 2017

It's a decent piece of low-budget film-making that shows what you can do with artfully built tension, skilful editing and a handful of shocking…

Review of The Finest Hours (2016)

By Matthew Bond (673) for The Mail on Sunday (UK) (704) on 23 Oct 2017

In a film that is one part The Caine Mutiny and one part The Perfect Storm, the depictions of both lifeboat and stricken tanker are excellent…

Review of Zootopia (2016)

By Matthew Bond (673) for The Mail on Sunday (UK) (704) on 23 Oct 2017

The animation is stunning, the screenplay as amusing as it is clever, and the voicework -- led by Ginnifer Goodwin, Horrible Bosses star Jason…
