Ambulance (2022) – Crashing
Released: 24th March
Seen: 7th April
Michael Bay is a very specific kind of filmmaker.

Everything Everywhere All At Once (2022) – Absolute Perfection
Released: 14th April
Seen: 6th April (Advance Screening)
The concept of the multiverse has been a pretty major part of the cinematic landscape recently, largely thanks to the MCU using it as part of their recent romp through nostalgia.

Released: 1st April
Seen: 5th April
Looking back on the last two years of the pandemic and how it’s impacted the movie industry, it’s legitimately stunning that we didn’t see more closures of cinemas and studios. The number of films that were even able to shoot during the pandemic was dramatically lower than usual and a lot of films seemed to think they needed to be about the pandemic and so many of them were bad.
