BARRY ★★★★☆
D: Vikram Gandhi. S: Devon Terrell, Anya Taylor-Joy, Ellar Coltrane, Avi Nash, Jenna Elfman, Linus Roche, Ashley Judd Skilful formative year in the life of Barack Obama biopic, focusing on racial disharmony while he was at university. My review: http://www.filmaluation.com/barry.html Wesley Snipes in CHI-RAQ might be my favourite of his performances (perhaps even more than BLADE and DEMOLITION MAN).
The previous three MUMMY movies were rubbish. Will Tom Cruise’s presence change that? If there’s a Baby Groot toy, surely it has best seller written all over it? Out to own today: Pete's Dragon
Makato Shinkai feature films:
- THE PLACE PROMISED IN OUR EARLY DAYS (2004) - 5 CENTIMETRES PER SECOND (2007) - JOURNEY TO AGARTHA (2011) - THE GARDEN OF WORDS (2013) - YOUR NAME (2016) Only the last really delivers (beyond the director's usual stunning visuals). |

Filmaluation is dedicated to arts culture, with a particular focus on film. I care about intelligence, quality and entertainment. Need some movie and TV show recommendations? See the drop down to the right of the Home tab. Enjoy. The vital ambitions of art and entertainment: - Perceptiveness - Illumination - The unexpected - Innovation Brains and soul are key; but adrenaline junkies do not fret, there is also much love for an experience that delivers a sucker-punch to the guts via stunningly delivered thrills. Noun, “filmaluation”: The evaluation of a film Verb, "to filmaluate”: To evaluate a film I am well aware how difficult it is to make a film, put on a stage play, create a television show, write a novel, let alone make something of note. (That appreciation doesn’t stop me from having high standards though.) This online magazine is edited by Hemanth Kissoon. Filmaluation is owned by Filmaluation Limited (Company number 8549302.
