Review of Dormant Beauty (2012)

The film’s well-written, beautifully performed (not least from Huppert, who’s typically stunning as her icy, grief-stricken matriarch,…

Review of Dinosaur 13 (2014)

By Oliver Lyttelton (141) for The Playlist (3,871) on 22 Aug 2014

Miller's documentary skills seem solid enough, but this particular story needed more objectivity, and a lot more rigor, to be worth telling…

Review of Guardians of the Galaxy (2014)

By Oliver Lyttelton (141) for The Playlist (3,871) on 23 Jul 2014

Gunn’s careful to keep the focus on the central five, but certainly proves himself capable of the bigger canvas…

Review of 22 Jump Street (2014)

By Oliver Lyttelton (141) for The Playlist (3,871) on 01 Jun 2014

22 Jump Street might not be quite as good as 21 Jump Street, but it's remarkably close, to the point where subsequent viewings could see it…

Review of National Gallery (2014)

By Oliver Lyttelton (141) for The Playlist (3,871) on 25 May 2014

Wiseman's film is the most nourishing example of cinematic brain food you'll have all year…

Review of Mr. Turner (2014)

By Oliver Lyttelton (141) for The Playlist (3,871) on 23 May 2014

Mr Turner, though not without flaws, is something of a twilight culmination of Leigh's work, and very much one in which the filmmaker turns…

Review of Leviathan (2014)

By Oliver Lyttelton (141) for The Playlist (3,871) on 23 May 2014

If there was ever any doubt as to Zvyagintsev's position as one of world cinema's foremost auteurs, it's put to rest here…

Review of Wild Tales (2014)

By Oliver Lyttelton (141) for The Playlist (3,871) on 21 May 2014

It's crisply and cleanly shot throughout, and the filmmaker shows a rare feel for how to not only make comedy land, but also to make it actually…

Review of Bird People (2014)

By Oliver Lyttelton (141) for The Playlist (3,871) on 21 May 2014

There are moments of beauty and charm, but also ones that felt rather broad, like an extract from a live-action Disney movie or something…

Review of Maps to the Stars (2014)

By Oliver Lyttelton (141) for The Playlist (3,871) on 21 May 2014

The film is a sickly enjoyable wallow in the scandalous, fucked-up side of showbusiness, and a real return to form for the filmmaker…

Review of Lost River (2015)

By Oliver Lyttelton (141) for The Playlist (3,871) on 21 May 2014

Given the talent assembled, the emptiness at its center only makes it feel like more of a waste…

Review of You're Sleeping, Nicole (2014)

By Oliver Lyttelton (141) for The Playlist (3,871) on 21 May 2014

it's executed with such charm and skill in every gorgeous frame that I walked out completely and totally smitten…

Review of The Homesman (2014)

By Oliver Lyttelton (141) for The Playlist (3,871) on 21 May 2014

While it’s an awkward, uneven picture, that doesn’t mean that it isn’t a fascinating one…

Review of The Disappearance of Eleanor Rigby: Them (2014)

By Oliver Lyttelton (141) for The Playlist (3,871) on 21 May 2014

It is very much a first film, albeit one of rare ambition, and there's every reason to think that Benson will nail it next time around…

Review of How to Train Your Dragon 2 (2014)

By Oliver Lyttelton (141) for The Playlist (3,871) on 15 May 2014

After meandering for a while, the story kicks into gear in the third act, with a couple of legitimately shocking and well-executed developments…

Review of Catch Me Daddy (2015)

By Oliver Lyttelton (141) for The Playlist (3,871) on 15 May 2014

It's an ambitious attempt to meld the kind of social realism that made the names of Andrea Arnold and Clio Barnard with a stripped-down genre…

Review of Grace of Monaco (2014)
