British auteur Michael Morros directed the excellent, To Leslie (2022) then took the reins of a beloved series of romantic stories all about clumsy unlucky in love Bridget Jones (Renee Zellweger) in a fourth film. Our discussion was brief but covers a lot of ground, behind the scenes of Bridget working with Renee, knowing when a joke lands, being a romantic, the soundtrack then obvious praise for Andrea Riseborough (To Leslie) and more! Enjoy, but my voice is a bit 'bugs bunny', sorry a...

My quick rundown of better than expected rags-to-riches and beyond story of pop star Robbie Williams shot primarily in Australia, directed by Michael Gracey;the maestro responsible for The Greatest Showman (2017) So it makes sense why this is a brazen, showy film with memorable musical sequences, all taken from Robbie's 'mostly' wild life. Yes Robbie is a CGI monkey.BETTER MAN a memorable cast includes;Damon Herriman, Jonno Davies, Raechelle Banno, Kate Mulvaney and Robbie hims...

There's a new Lord of the Rings film, it's anime, I really enjoyed it. Australia's own Miranda Otto returns as Eowyn to narrate this Middle Earth adventure and we had a conversation I hope you enjoy as much as I did.

Likely to make one think twice about having a one-night=stand. Relatively spoiler free rundown of a movie that stuck in my mind long after it had finished, Strange Darling, full of wild suspense from unpredictable situations. Excellent cast in high octane mode, fine plot threads told in non linear order enhance the wild thrills.STRANGE DARLING Directed by JT MollnerStarring Will Fitzgerald, Kyle Gallner, Madisen Beaty, Ed Begley Jr, Barbara Hershey, Jason Patric.

Flop environmental thriller The Happening, from M Night. Shyamalan was the beginning of a major low point of his directing career, although some may say his previous film "Lady in the Water' which I will defend, started the ball rolling until he sprung back to creative life with The Visit (2015) and beyond.Dialogue is key to the ridiculousness here and a premise of outrunning the wind!Enjoy my rundown of The Happening with brief look over a Shyamalan trajectory.The Happening (2008)Directed by...

Low key young adult paranormal action thriller is mostly forgettable, the cast are at least convincing in an all too familiar and not well directed premise with an even worse soundtrack. I rewatched after not seeing it since original release, enjoy my reasonably fair rundown with minimum spoilers.
