Review of Keith Lemon: The Film (2012)

By Simon Gallagher (50) for What Culture (594) on 28 Aug 2012

Had it all been done more tongue-in-cheek, it might have worked as a rubbish curio like a more adult Spice World, but instead it's boring,…

Review of Beasts of the Southern Wild (2012)

By Simon Gallagher (50) for Film School Rejects (1,198) on 27 May 2012

Beasts of the Southern Wild is an incredible debut film - overwhelming, engaging, beautifully entertaining, and it deserves to be shared…

Review of Me & You (2015)

By Simon Gallagher (50) for Film School Rejects (1,198) on 27 May 2012

There is certainly some promise for a return to form, but it was just too meager a project in the context of the director's earlier heavy-weight…

Review of Me & You (2014)

By Simon Gallagher (50) for Film School Rejects (1,198) on 27 May 2012

There is certainly some promise for a return to form, but it was just too meager a project in the context of the director's earlier heavy-weight…

Review of Cosmopolis (2012)

By Simon Gallagher (50) for Film School Rejects (1,198) on 25 May 2012

Yes Cosmopolis bears a striking gloss, and is shot basically well, but it is way too showy without the necessary substance, and as a result…

Review of The Angels' Share (2012)

By Simon Gallagher (50) for Film School Rejects (1,198) on 23 May 2012

The Angels' Share is often hilarious, always hugely charming, and carries a wholly appropriate social message…

Review of The Hunt (2013)

By Simon Gallagher (50) for Film School Rejects (1,198) on 22 May 2012

A hugely affecting film, inspiring the full gambit of emotions from humor to fist-clenching rage and a pitch-perfect, chilling crescendo of horror…

Review of Killing Them Softly (2012)

By Simon Gallagher (50) for Film School Rejects (1,198) on 22 May 2012

Killing Them Softly is an artfully crafted, occasionally very funny satire dressed up in tough-guy leathers and packing a knuckle duster punch…

Review of Lawless (2012)

By Simon Gallagher (50) for Film School Rejects (1,198) on 19 May 2012

An artfully crafted film with subtle elegance, a moonshine drenched aesthetic and a set of performances that lift it well beyond many other…

Review of Laurence Anyways (2012)

By Simon Gallagher (50) for Film School Rejects (1,198) on 19 May 2012

An infuriating mix of shattered expectations and self-important artistic masturbation, with the successful elements cruelly washed away in…

Review of Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows (2011)

By Simon Gallagher (50) for What Culture (594) on 19 May 2012

The overall effect is of sort of Steam Punk Toulouse Lautrec portrait, intricately designed, occasionally visually dazzling, and well-acted…

Review of Dracula 3D (2012)

By Simon Gallagher (50) for Film School Rejects (1,198) on 19 May 2012

Argento doesn't play by conventional rules, including nude scenes for his own daughter in amongst the provocatively kitsch horror moments and…

Review of The Sapphires (2012)

By Simon Gallagher (50) for Film School Rejects (1,198) on 19 May 2012

Harmless, eschewing provocation in favour of a genuine entertainment factor, and preferring to tell its worthy story in terms of characters…

Review of Reality (2012)

By Simon Gallagher (50) for Film School Rejects (1,198) on 18 May 2012

Reality is effectively Garrone's Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory,cruelly trapping Charlie in a perpetual hunt through Wonka bars for…

Review of Roman Polanski: A Film Memoir (2012)

By Simon Gallagher (50) for Film School Rejects (1,198) on 18 May 2012

Sycophancy is an ugly thing at the best of times, and when the subject is shouldering the story-telling burden without it, it's even worse…

Review of Reality+ (2014)

By Simon Gallagher (50) for Film School Rejects (1,198) on 18 May 2012

Reality is effectively Garrone's Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory,cruelly trapping Charlie in a perpetual hunt through Wonka bars for…

Review of Paradise: Love (2012)

By Simon Gallagher (50) for Film School Rejects (1,198) on 18 May 2012

Grotesque and too openly provocative for its own good…

Review of Moonrise Kingdom (2012)

By Simon Gallagher (50) for Film School Rejects (1,198) on 15 May 2012

Hugely charming, and featuring both typically excellent cast performances, and some wonderful technical flourishes…
