Busy few days of film

Good Boy – Glasgow Film Festival Review - . Jan Komasa’s Good Boy arrives as one of those unsettling, genre‑slippery films that resists easy categorisation, operating somewhere between psychological thriller, social parable and pitch‑black char...

Our first review from @glasgowfilmfest.bsky.social 🤩

Jan Komasa's #GoodBoy is "unsettling" and "genre‑slippery" with powerhouse performances from Stephen Graham and Anson Boon ⛓️

Favourite of the fest so far #GFF26

Willem Dafoe is, as ever, a compelling presence in Miguel Ángel Jiménez’s 70s-set melodrama The Birthday Party but the film around him is bland and boring. We’re invited into a lavish celebration but stuck with the worst people in the room, we’re left looking for an excuse to leave early #GFF26

My day two at #GFF26!

Today’s films are My Father’s Island, Couture, and One Last Deal.

Heading west for my 13th year at Glasgow Film Festival.

Today’s films are The Good Boy & The Birthday Party! #GFF26 #FilmSky

Everybody to Kenmure Street | TAKE ONE Magazine | Glasgow Film Festival 2026 Felipe Bustos Sierra’s latest documentary is a fitting one to open Glasgow Film Festival 2026 as a thoughtful exploration of Glasgow’s political history and how a community can come together to make a...

For @takeonecinema.net, I reviewed EVERYBODY TO KENMURE STREET, the opening film of this year's Glasgow Film Festival. It's a stirring documentary focused on the individuals who chose to defend their neighbours that day and the Scottish context of the protest. People Make Glasgow. #GFF26

It Will Only Take You One Hour to Fall in Love with ‘Industry’ Less than an hour, actually. Just 51 minutes.

Hearing a lot about this show Industry but not sure whether you want to take the plunge? I've got good news: Everything good about Industry is right there in the series premiere, and it only gets better from there. As I wrote last season, all you'll need to decide if it's for you is one hour

Aye it borrows a lot but it felt like it was wearing its influences on its sleeve.

Throwing its many influences at the wall to see what sticks, Gore Verbinski’s anti-AI sci-fi adventure Good Luck, Have Fun, Don’t Die doesn’t have an original bone in its eccentric body but it’s fun and thought-provoking nonetheless. I’d happily watch a spin-off with Haley Lu Richardson’s character!

My reviews of new releases Wasteman & If I Had Legs I’d Kick You are live!

cinemaperspective.com

Wasteman is a showcase for one of Britain’s most exciting young actors – review Cal McMau’s feature debut doesn’t offer much new to the prison drama genre, but it boasts complexity and grace in the performances of its leading men

everyone needs to get on the david jonsson train asap. watch WASTEMAN to understand why

The Chronology of Water Film Review - Seensome.com Kristen Stewart’s directorial debut is reviewed through its fractured form, fearless performances, and emotionally unflinching approach to trauma and memory.

Still in some cinemas, it's well worth seeking out Kristen Stewart's emotionally raw directorial debut The Chronology of Water.

Had a chat with Kleber Mendonça Filho about THE SECRET AGENT not long after he and Wagner Moura got a mysterious call from President Lula. For @theskinnymag.bsky.social:
www.theskinny.co.uk/film/intervi...

A big flashy LA heist thriller with a starry ensemble, Crime 101 is a throwback to the cops & robbers flicks of the 90s. It’s slick and intricate storytelling from Bart Layton and its engine purrs all the way to a gripping finale. Ruffalo is made to be a salt n’ pepper haired dishevelled detective.

Getting that last Best Picture nominee ticked off this evening ✅
