Big Glittery Sh*t Show – Wonderland Festival 2019

24 November 2019 by Peter Gray Leave a Comment

Beginning with a scantily-clad attired man snorting glitter as if it was cocaine, ending with a dance number complete with an over-sized rubber ducky, and featuring knife juggling, a disturbingly aerobic trampoline number, and a game of darts that opts to use sex toys instead in-between, Big Glittery Shit Show is definitely not your parents' variety show! If you're prepared to … [Read more...] about Big Glittery Sh*t Show – Wonderland Festival 2019

19 November 2019 by Peter Gray Leave a Comment

Fisherman's Friends, one of those predictable feel-good true story tales that recounts the type of event better suited to a morning show segment rather than being extended for 112 minutes, ticks so many boxes in terms of what narrative beats to hit that it feels more design-by-committee rather than an organic telling. Given that it is based on a true story though it's … [Read more...] about Fisherman’s Friends – Film Review

The Report – Film Review

15 November 2019 by Peter Gray Leave a Comment

A damning account of the CIA's use of enhanced interrogation, i.e. torture techniques, on suspected terrorists following the attacks of September 11th, The Report is an uncompromising film that adopts a documentary-type mentality in order to relay its story as unsensationally as possible. The titular report, dubbed "the torture report", is constantly at the centre of Scott Z. … [Read more...] about The Report – Film Review
