Review of Madeline's Madeline (2018)

By Simran Hans (401) for The Observer (UK) (826) on 13 May 2019

The dilemma she presents is ethical: is it fair to ask someone to traumatise (or retraumatise) themselves for the sake of art…

Review of The Hustle (2019)

By Simran Hans (401) for The Observer (UK) (826) on 13 May 2019

Clearly, it’s intended as a vehicle for Wilson, who is credited as co-producer, but it’s Hathaway who steals the show…

Review of Bel Canto (2018)

By Simran Hans (401) for The Observer (UK) (826) on 27 Apr 2019

There’s a tepid, cross-cultural romantic comedy trapped inside this televisual hostage drama. The reliable Moore is trapped too…

Review of Avengers: Endgame (2019)

By Simran Hans (401) for The Observer (UK) (826) on 26 Apr 2019

The final battle is giddily cathartic, but the catharsis arises from prioritising character development over plot and spectacle…

Review of Greta (2019)

By Simran Hans (401) for The Observer (UK) (826) on 21 Apr 2019

Mostly, though, as a B-movie, Greta works; the moments in which it leans into its own silliness are its best…

Review of mid90s (2018)

By Simran Hans (401) for The Observer (UK) (826) on 14 Apr 2019

The attempts at authentic stoner dialogue soon become tedious, with too little plot or character development grounding the inanity (Hill’s…

Review of Shazam! (2019)

By Simran Hans (401) for The Observer (UK) (826) on 07 Apr 2019

There’s a sense of Stranger Things camaraderie among Billy and his foster siblings, who are actually fun to spend time with, and the film’s…

Review of The Sisters Brothers (2018)

By Simran Hans (401) for The Observer (UK) (826) on 07 Apr 2019

The film’s sometimes tiresome sense of humour is laddish in its embrace of viscera (blood, boils, vomit and live spiders all feature), but…

Review of Happy as Lazzaro (2018)

By Simran Hans (401) for The Observer (UK) (826) on 07 Apr 2019

Inviolata is Italian for “unspoiled”, and the word could apply to its people as much as their straw-gold land…

Review of Missing Link (2019)

By Simran Hans (401) for The Observer (UK) (826) on 07 Apr 2019

The film feels more like an elbow in the ribs than a slap on the wrist, revelling in the miscommunications between Susan the Sasquatch’s…

Review of Ben Is Back (2018)

By Simran Hans (401) for The Observer (UK) (826) on 18 Mar 2019

The material feels more like a play than a film, its drama shrunk down into a single, digestible day, but it’s affecting in its muted seriousness…

Review of What Men Want (2019)

By Simran Hans (401) for The Observer (UK) (826) on 18 Mar 2019

Cameos from Pete Davidson and 30 Rock’s Tracy Morgan are enjoyable diversions but the jokes themselves are less high-concept, hinging on…

Review of Capernaum (2018)

By Simran Hans (401) for The Observer (UK) (826) on 24 Feb 2019

Rafeea, a non-professional actor and Syrian refugee, is the film’s secret weapon…

Review of The Kid Who Would Be King (2019)

By Simran Hans (401) for The Observer (UK) (826) on 21 Feb 2019

I’m a huge fan of Cornish’s 2011 debut Attack the Block, but this film isn’t nearly as energetic or enjoyably wacky as its predecessor…

Review of Instant Family (2018)

By Simran Hans (401) for The Observer (UK) (826) on 21 Feb 2019

The tone is weird, seesawing between broad comedy (Tig Notaro and Octavia Spencer as hardened adoption agency workers) and manipulative melodrama…

Review of All Is True (2018)

By Simran Hans (401) for The Observer (UK) (826) on 13 Feb 2019

I like Branagh’s eye for landscapes too; space is used elegantly, while widescreen canvases glow green and orange…

Review of Boy Erased (2018)

By Simran Hans (401) for The Observer (UK) (826) on 13 Feb 2019

The film feels thin, drab and ultimately unable to harness the collective power of its otherwise talented cast…

Review of The Lego Movie 2: The Second Part (2019)

By Simran Hans (401) for The Observer (UK) (826) on 09 Feb 2019

The final set piece is a little protracted, but the jokes are mostly sharp and enjoyably self-referential and the songs still catchy (one track…

Review of Monsters & Men (2018)

By Simran Hans (401) for The Observer (UK) (826) on 22 Jan 2019

Inevitably, some chapters work better than others but it’s an interesting, sideways look at how violence can serve as a catalyst rather than…

Review of Glass (2019)

By Simran Hans (401) for Observer (UK) (2,398) on 20 Jan 2019

The metaphors are messy (trauma makes people extraordinary…
