Review of The Equalizer 2 (2018)

By Richard James Havis (225) for South China Morning Post (665) on 16 Sep 2018

It is blunt, humourless and brutal, and reminds of the no-nonsense action films of the 1970s and early 1980s…

Review of The Nun (2018)

By Richard James Havis (225) for South China Morning Post (665) on 16 Sep 2018

Those who like old-fashioned Hammer horrors will certainly get a kick out of this movie, which brims with Gothic atmosphere but has no discernible…

Review of Adrift (2018)

By Richard James Havis (225) for South China Morning Post (665) on 05 Sep 2018

A well-made shipwreck movie with some exciting and poignant moments…

Review of Kin (2018)

By Richard James Havis (225) for South China Morning Post (665) on 02 Sep 2018

The different styles sit uneasily together, and coherence isn't helped by a script that slows the pacing right down by putting long talky scenes…

Review of Billionaire Boys Club (2018)

By Richard James Havis (225) for South China Morning Post (665) on 01 Sep 2018

Why a director would try so hard to clean up the image of an inhuman convicted felon beggars belief…

Review of Tully (2018)

By Richard James Havis (225) for South China Morning Post (665) on 01 Sep 2018

This comedy drama is blighted by navel gazing but saved by some gritty, insightful acting from Charlize Theron…

Review of The Spy Who Dumped Me (2018)

By Richard James Havis (225) for South China Morning Post (665) on 21 Aug 2018

McKinnon is the best thing here, and her exuberance often manages to overcome the film's stylistic problems to provide an entertaining watch…

Review of Hotel Transylvania 3: Summer Vacation (2018)

By Richard James Havis (225) for South China Morning Post (665) on 17 Aug 2018

The quick-fire animation is top-notch, young kids will find it a hoot, and their parents will not be too bored…

Review of Truth or Dare (2018)

By Richard James Havis (225) for South China Morning Post (665) on 26 Jun 2018

[The film's] hastily concocted conclusion ... will leave audiences feeling ripped off, rendering pointless what had been an averagely enjoyable watch…

Review of Midnight Sun (2018)

By Richard James Havis (225) for South China Morning Post (665) on 17 Jun 2018

Midnight Sun is ... hokey, never missing the chance to tug at the heartstrings with a mawkish tune, a tearful hug, or a scene of selfless kindness…

Review of Ocean's Eight (2018)

By Richard James Havis (225) for South China Morning Post (665) on 10 Jun 2018

The brief is simple: cast a team of A-list actresses and let them have the fun that is usually reserved for men…

Review of Anon (2018)

By Richard James Havis (225) for South China Morning Post (665) on 09 Jun 2018

A tepid crime movie that uses technology and graphics merely to add a bit of zest…

Review of Blockers (2018)

By Richard James Havis (225) for South China Morning Post (665) on 09 Jun 2018

While it doesn't shy away from being crude, the film manages to be touching, observant, socially relevant, and downright hilarious…

Review of First Kill (2017)

By Richard James Havis (225) for South China Morning Post (665) on 17 May 2018

The only interesting thing about First Kill is that Bruce Willis plays a bad cop…

Review of Submergence (2018)

By Richard James Havis (225) for South China Morning Post (665) on 17 May 2018

Looking like a work-for-hire, the adaptation of J.M. Ledgard's romantic novel Submergence doesn't manage to touch or excite…

Review of Dries (2017)

By Richard James Havis (225) for South China Morning Post (665) on 25 Apr 2018

Documentaries about fashion designers have become ubiquitous, but this film about Belgian designer Dries Van Noten is a cut above the rest…

Review of The Strangers: Prey at Night (2018)

By Richard James Havis (225) for South China Morning Post (665) on 21 Apr 2018

It's difficult to tell if The Strangers: Prey at Night is a tongue-in-cheek homage to the slasher video nasties of the 1980s, or just badly made…

Review of Secret Superstar (2017)

By Richard James Havis (225) for South China Morning Post (665) on 09 Apr 2018

Underneath the commercial sheen is a tough story about domestic abuse and female empowerment that dares to go deeper than most sweet and sunny…

Review of The Go Master (2007)

By Richard James Havis (225) for The Hollywood Reporter (7,050) on 29 Mar 2018

Although the story takes place during a tumultuous period, historical events never obscure the gaming genius' story…

Review of Peter Rabbit (2018)

By Richard James Havis (225) for South China Morning Post (665) on 27 Mar 2018

Young children will find enough to enjoy in this tale of rabbits, which themselves look like animated plushy toys…
