Irish theologian, Kevin Hargaden
While good, this is not the classic comedy that I thought it was but a sad and painful movie about poor people struggling with their mental health and freaking cancer!
Your Correspondent, Sits around the house like a dead weight watching TV, sleeping all day, getting arrested at weddings.
One gets the impression that this two-star movie could have been a four-star classic had Rodrigo Cortés left this draft of the screenplay in a drawer for a year or two and come back with fresh eyes to tighten the whole thing up.

The definitive trailer-is-better-than-the-film movie.

At this point, it is undisputed among the scholars but that Awesome; I Fuckin’ Shot That is both the greatest movie of Nathaniel Hornblower’s career and the best movie title to feature a semi-colon but such acclaim too easily passes over the simple fact that this rocks.

Your Correspondent, Likes Scarlett a whole lot.
I didn’t want to like this movie but I really did and I don’t want to be like Penelope but I really am.
Your Correspondent, Doesn’t believe in the god of carnage but finds him very amusing
This is an extended musing on propitiation and atonement, an argument that heroism is impossible in a culture that is nihilistically self-centred and also a hugely enjoyable silly horror movie about monsters in the woods.
Your Correspondent, Anatomically incapable of a husband bulge
It is an uncommon children’s movie that deals with questions of legacy, the appreciation of artistic genius, the moral abomination that is war, the decency in tinkering with things and most of all the magic of movies but in Hugo we have the film that does all this, ends by honouring the book as the chief of all art forms and should by rights have won the Oscar.

This is our generation’s Driving Miss Daisy.
Your Correspondent, Completely underwhelmed and not just because the dialogue lacked sparkle.
