Review of Passengers (2016)

By Ryan Gilbey (367) for New Statesman (382) on 21 Dec 2016

No movie starring Lawrence is ever likely to be flat-out dumb -- for all that her looks have played a part in her career ascendancy, her defining…

Review of Assassin's Creed (2016)

By Ryan Gilbey (367) for New Statesman (382) on 21 Dec 2016

Assassin's Creed, an adaptation of the popular videogame, is a terrible film that doesn't even have the decency to be bad in interesting ways…

Review of Silence (2017)

By Ryan Gilbey (367) for New Statesman (382) on 15 Dec 2016

If ever there was a film that was both thought-provoking and deathly dull, it is this one…

Review of Silence (2016)

By Ryan Gilbey (367) for New Statesman (382) on 15 Dec 2016

If ever there was a film that was both thought-provoking and deathly dull, it is this one…

Review of Rogue One: A Star Wars Story (2016)

By Ryan Gilbey (367) for New Statesman (382) on 14 Dec 2016

The story clicks nicely into place with the events of Star Wars but that narrative is really just a blank sky in which the film's other elements…

Review of Snowden (2016)

By Ryan Gilbey (367) for New Statesman (382) on 08 Dec 2016

The movie falls between two stools, however, lacking either the irreverence of satire or the tautness of a well-tooled thriller…

Review of Chi-Raq (2015)

By Ryan Gilbey (367) for New Statesman (382) on 01 Dec 2016

[Chi-Raq], if often muddled, is rarely dull…

Review of Paterson (2016)

By Ryan Gilbey (367) for New Statesman (382) on 29 Nov 2016

Driver, with his long, sloping brow and soulful lips, is both formidable and sympathetic, like an Easter Island statue that's a really good listener…

Review of Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them (2016)

By Ryan Gilbey (367) for New Statesman (382) on 17 Nov 2016

For all the sophisticated special effects, it's rather like being trapped in a two-hour game of Pokémon Go…

Review of Arrival (2016)

By Ryan Gilbey (367) for New Statesman (382) on 10 Nov 2016

Where Close Encounters of the Third Kind gazed outward in awe at the universe, Arrival asks only how its mysteries might provide succour and…

Review of The Paperboy (2012)

By Ryan Gilbey (367) for New Statesman (382) on 09 Nov 2016

Daniels turns out to be the ideal director for a film about the tendency of desire to turn sane minds to guacamole…

Review of Nocturnal Animals (2016)

By Ryan Gilbey (367) for New Statesman (382) on 03 Nov 2016

Ford made his priorities clear when he named his film after Edward's novel rather than allowing the story, as Tony and Susan did, to occupy…

Review of Further Beyond (2016)

By Ryan Gilbey (367) for New Statesman (382) on 03 Nov 2016

Quite unexpectedly, Further Beyond builds up an emotional weight, partly because the material is so poignant but also because of the manner…

Review of The Light Between Oceans (2016)

By Ryan Gilbey (367) for New Statesman (382) on 03 Nov 2016

Cianfrance's film is like a form pushed under our noses. On the dotted line at the bottom you can just make out the words: Cry here…

Review of Sonita (2016)

By Ryan Gilbey (367) for New Statesman (382) on 19 Oct 2016

Ghaemmaghami could be accused of steering the action to make a stronger film but her attempt to save Sonita from being married off is far more…

Review of Jack Reacher: Never Go Back (2016)

By Ryan Gilbey (367) for New Statesman (382) on 19 Oct 2016

Reassurance and confidence are the main tools in Reacher's arsenal, but the director Edward Zwick doesn't seem to have spotted that endless…

Review of Queen of Katwe (2016)

By Ryan Gilbey (367) for New Statesman (382) on 19 Oct 2016

There is always something to tickle the eye…

Review of I, Daniel Blake (2016)

By Ryan Gilbey (367) for New Statesman (382) on 12 Oct 2016

The greatest virtue of I, Daniel Blake is its patience in confronting painstakingly the incremental humiliations visited on the neediest in society…

Review of American Honey (2016)

By Ryan Gilbey (367) for New Statesman (382) on 12 Oct 2016

Every corner of American Honey is crammed with colour, vitality and pulsing music…

Review of The Girl on the Train (2016)

By Ryan Gilbey (367) for New Statesman (382) on 05 Oct 2016

The Girl on the Train is tabloid cinema: it gets the audience all juiced up on the very scenes of domestic violence and murder that it professes…
