The Brown Note Movie Review

I fell hopelessly in love with director, Luca Guadagnino's beautiful tale of first summer love.

Fearless auteur Denis Villeneuve wasn't afraid to tackle the thankless holy Bladerunner legacy and astonishingly made an entirely worthy followup.

My best and worst films of 2017! That year my number one film of the year was a TV show, something I totally forgot about in my end of decade list.

Doug Liman remains one of the most unpredictable of American directors, with this Tom Cruise starring true-crime drama about former smuggler, CIA operative and Pablo Escobar courier Barry Seal. What sounds great on paper sadly and bewilderingly decides to focus too much on being a silly action film.

The only, single time the DC movie universe outdid the Marvel one was in this hugely watchable first female led superhero film.

Esteemed British black-comedy director John Michael McDonagh may not have hit the height of something like, The Guard here but it's still well worth fans of very on the nose humor. Stars Michael Pena and Alexander Skarsgard both shine and are usually hilarious.

I have as yet not given a perfect 10/10 score to a new release film, solely a few retrospective reviews, so this is as close as it comes. Maybe the pinnacle of David Lynch's career, this jawdropping, arthouse, challenging eighteen-hour movie redefined what both a movie and television could be or even aspire to be. It was also my "movie" of the year.

A half-way look at the most memorable TV event of the decade.

Director Michael Winterbottom and stars Steve Coogan and Rob Brydon's nearly real foodie travelogues have been a uniform, hilarious delight, best seen in their TV format than the truncated film versions, that overwhelm with impersonations.

An astonishingly inept and awful attempt to boot off a franchise.
