DENIAL ★★★☆☆
D: Mick Jackson (Volcano, The Bodyguard).
S: Rachel Weisz, Tom Wilkinson, Timothy Spall, Andrew Scott, Alex Jennings.
Solid legal procedural. Scott is the stand out. Conveys clinical defence tactics contrasting layered emotionality.
THE HEADHUNTER'S CALLING ★★☆☆☆
D: Mark Williams.
S: Gerard Butler, Alison Brie, Willem Dafoe, Gretchen Mol, Alfred Molina.
Simplistic, weepy morality tale about a douche learning obvious life lessons. Add in an awful miscalculation.
KATI KATI ★★½☆☆
Ambitious directorial debut from Mbithi Masya. An after life mystery drama is hampered by scope and scale.
ASURA: THE CITY OF MADNESS ★★★★½
D: Kim Sung-soo (Flu, Musa: The Warrior)
S: Hwang Jung-min, Kwak Do-won, Ju Ji-hoon, Jung Woo-sung.
Hardcore crime thriller offering no salvation. An urban cesspool of corruption. Ultra violent. Funny
