Last Night in Soho is an Overwhelming Experience
Cass is here with a review of the latest Edgar Wright film.
Last Night in Soho (2021)
I need to show my cards here – I am a huge Edgar Wright fan. I have been ever since I have seen Shaun of the Dead (2004). I have learned a lot about him, mainly the fact, he’s an avid cinephile. I would imagine he’s the only one who comes anywhere near Quentin Tarantino and/or Martin Scorsese regarding the film knowledge, the […]
Last Night in Soho (2021) Review – Definitely Won’t Be My Last Night
“Luzzu”
“Luzzu” is a simple but gripping drama about a Maltese fisherman facing the end of his generations-long profession in a world of globe-trotting trawlers, international trade and climate change. Its star is a real-life Maltese fisherman, a man so intimately acquainted with his way of life and the desolation of losing it that what we’re […]

A crowded field of screenwriters, including several newcomers, will duke it out for five slots. (Constantly updated.)
“Last Night in Soho” (2021)
With so many films coming out this year, we never know which one is good and which one will disappoint us. In certain cases, it hurts when you anticipate bigger but get less than that. Because the director either fails to convey the message, actors were not in sync, […]
The Exorcist
The seventies really were, in my opinion, one of the best decades for film. For better or worse it really changed the way films were being made and brought in a new generation of inspiring and challenging filmmakers. It was also a great decade for horror and a lot of my favourite films are from […]

Halloween Kills
Halloween Kills brings the terror back to Haddonfield in the sequel to 2018’s Halloween – the true sequel to the 1978 classic of the same name. Like the 1981 sequel, this story picks up the same night the events of 2018’s terror took place. We last saw Michael Myers trapped in a burning basement of […]
The Sunday Intertitle: Pilgrim Versus the World
At four reels, THE PILGRIM isn’t quite a short and doesn’t seem quite a feature, but the IMDb classes it as one. Excitingly, I don’t think I’ve ever seen it, not all the way through. Chaplin is recycling the escaped convict routine from THE ADVENTURER and having another go at the mistaken identity gag from […]
The Big Mouth
I was curious about Errol Morris’ AMERICAN DHARMA, about Trump advisor and Breitbart exec Steve Bannon, but not apparently curious enough to see it when it was new. I finally checked it out. Essentially, it conforms to the conclusions I’ve already drawn about Morris’s filmmaking. When he was making documentaries about ordinary people, he had […]
