Review of Nope (2022)

By Clarisse Loughrey (259) for The Independent (259) on 25 Aug 2022

Review of Day Shift (2022)

By Clarisse Loughrey (259) for The Independent (259) on 11 Aug 2022

Review of Bullet Train (2022)

By Clarisse Loughrey (259) for The Independent (259) on 03 Aug 2022

Review of Joyride (2022)

By Clarisse Loughrey (259) for The Independent (259) on 28 Jul 2022

Review of Thirteen Lives (2022)

By Clarisse Loughrey (259) for The Independent (259) on 28 Jul 2022

The tension of Thirteen Lives is implicit, and ramps up like a vice – how long until all these people’s luck finally runs out…

Review of The Railway Children Return (2022)

By Clarisse Loughrey (259) for The Independent (259) on 19 Jul 2022

The Railway Children Return is part-sequel, part-remake, with a carefully selected smattering of callbacks for the fans…

Review of The Gray Man (2022)

Review of Persuasion (2022)

Review of Thor: Love and Thunder (2022)
