Review of Midnight Special (2016)

By Richard Lawson (539) for Vanity Fair (761) on 15 Mar 2016

Review of 10 Cloverfield Lane (2016)

By Richard Lawson (539) for Vanity Fair (761) on 10 Mar 2016

An overdone finale aside, there's much to enjoy and admire in 10 Cloverfield Lane, from its sharp performances to its economical, acutely realized…

Review of Zoolander 2 (2016)

By Richard Lawson (539) for Vanity Fair (761) on 11 Feb 2016

By Richard Lawson (539) for Vanity Fair (761) on 03 Feb 2016

Review of Indignation (2016)

By Richard Lawson (539) for Vanity Fair (761) on 02 Feb 2016

Indignation is a dedicated, unadorned drama of ideas, but Schamus has filled the picture with subtle artistry, from his exacting period detail…

Review of Star Wars: The Force Awakens (2015)

By Richard Lawson (539) for Vanity Fair (761) on 16 Dec 2015

These young people are a spirited bunch, led by Daisy Ridley and John Boyega, two bright-faced newcomers who lend the proceedings the appropriate…

Review of The Revenant (2015)

By Richard Lawson (539) for Vanity Fair (761) on 04 Dec 2015

It's a hairy true story, one ripe for the über-masculine film treatment, which is exactly what director Alejandro González Iñárritu has…

Review of The Danish Girl (2015)

Review of Spectre (2015)

By Richard Lawson (539) for Vanity Fair (761) on 03 Nov 2015

Review of Suffragette (2015)

By Richard Lawson (539) for Vanity Fair (761) on 26 Oct 2015

Suffragette trundles along well enough, all noble and serious, but it doesn't get the blood up the way a protest movie probably should…

Review of Crimson Peak (2015)

By Richard Lawson (539) for Vanity Fair (761) on 13 Oct 2015

The film is not quite as silly as Pacific Rim or his dreadful FX series, The Strain, but as del Toro does too often, here he takes what could…

Review of Bridge of Spies (2015)

By Richard Lawson (539) for Vanity Fair (761) on 06 Oct 2015
