Review of Jackie (2016)

By Pj Nabarro (328) for Patrick Nabarro (306) on 03 Nov 2018

The film crystallises Jackie's dignity and pathos, and, also crucially, the sheer brutality of a way of life being completely wrenched from…

Review of Whiplash (2014)

By Pj Nabarro (328) for Patrick Nabarro (306) on 03 Nov 2018

A dramatic conceit around which so-called truisms about the destructive quest for artistic perfection can play out…

Review of Batman Begins (2005)

By Pj Nabarro (328) for Patrick Nabarro (306) on 03 Nov 2018

That the movie ends up thematising the murk of our modern world, if not exactly piecing it together into a comprehensible whole, is perhaps…

Review of Sing Street (2016)

By Pj Nabarro (328) for Patrick Nabarro (306) on 03 Nov 2018

John Carney's retro-feelgood mash-up, Sing Street, is elevated by its sheer charm and the way it taps into a fundamental truth about the sentiment…

Review of The Second Best Exotic Marigold Hotel (2015)

By Pj Nabarro (328) for Patrick Nabarro (306) on 03 Nov 2018

The film's blithe attitude to its Indian characters and canvas, plus the largely bogus journeys it forces on its key personnel, give new meaning…

Review of The Damned United (2009)

By Pj Nabarro (328) for Patrick Nabarro (306) on 03 Nov 2018

The Damned United is a populist - at times, almost cartoonish - attempt to make comprehensible the story behind Brian Clough's ill-fated 44-day…

Review of The Full Monty (1997)

By Pj Nabarro (328) for Patrick Nabarro (306) on 03 Nov 2018

The Full Monty carries beneath its feelgood trajectory an exquisite air of gallows humour mixed with a dash of melancholy and a wee sprinkling…

Review of Whisky Galore! (1949)

By Pj Nabarro (328) for Patrick Nabarro (306) on 03 Nov 2018

There's plenty of slapstick in Whisky Galore, but even more appealing is the exquisite current of social satire coursing through the film's narrative…

Review of The Squid and the Whale (2005)

By Pj Nabarro (328) for Patrick Nabarro (306) on 03 Nov 2018

This is a warm, measured little ballad about the exquisitely sad whimsy of seeing the sanctity of your parent's union fall catastrophically down…

Review of Avengers: Age of Ultron (2015)

By Pj Nabarro (328) for Patrick Nabarro (306) on 03 Nov 2018

The return of the Avengers crew, though bringing little new to the table after the 2012 series opener, Avengers Assemble, is an amiable enough…

Review of The Bling Ring (2013)

By Pj Nabarro (328) for Patrick Nabarro (306) on 03 Nov 2018

The film is a rhetorical catastrophe…

Review of Aquarius (2016)

By Pj Nabarro (328) for Patrick Nabarro (306) on 03 Nov 2018

Aquarius is a lovely testament to the importance of not allowing capital values to encroach upon your history, your past, your heritage and…

Review of All Over the Town (1949)

By Pj Nabarro (328) for Patrick Nabarro (306) on 03 Nov 2018

Those with an interest in the history of Lyme Regis (converted into the town of 'Tormouth') and a fondness for the Ealing comedy brand of light…

Review of A Very Murray Christmas (2015)

By Pj Nabarro (328) for Patrick Nabarro (306) on 03 Nov 2018

The whole idea of Bill Murray is that he's funny when he's not trying to be, and that his persona works best when scored against substantial…

Review of David Brent: Life on the Road (2016)

By Pj Nabarro (328) for Patrick Nabarro (306) on 03 Nov 2018

Brent's genius was as a clown reflecting back the excruciating banality of work culture; here, it feels like Gervais is trying to bend the…

Review of Song to Song (2017)

By Pj Nabarro (328) for Patrick Nabarro (306) on 03 Nov 2018

Malick seeks only to gorge on the emotional malcontent of his disaffected players…

Review of Prevenge (2017)

By Pj Nabarro (328) for Patrick Nabarro (306) on 03 Nov 2018

There's the germ of a good concept in Alice Lowe's debut as writer-director, but the shoddy way she merges the different ideas in that concept…

Review of Frozen (2013)

By Pj Nabarro (328) for Patrick Nabarro (306) on 03 Nov 2018

Frozen is, to put it simply, all technique and iconography in desperate search of a story and its own viable mythology…

Review of Paterson (2016)

By Pj Nabarro (328) for Patrick Nabarro (306) on 03 Nov 2018

It's almost a thesis on the pleasures of simplicity, quietude, detachment and a form of solipsism…

Review of A Quiet Passion (2016)

By Pj Nabarro (328) for Patrick Nabarro (306) on 03 Nov 2018

What's so great about Davies' work here is that he's made a film that is at once extremely political and dramatic while also being compellingly…
