What I think about films, TV and celebs!
The Fast and Furious franchise is just the gift that keeps on giving. Who would have predicted what it would become from its humble beginnings in 2001? And now we have its first spin-off – Hobbs and Shaw, which is very good fun and as ridiculous as you would expect.
A new month is upon us once again which means it’s time to look ahead at which cinema releases I’m looking forward to most this August.
I wanted to check out Yardie purely to see what Idris Elba was like as a feature film director. This is an impressive and assured debut, but I wasn’t particularly wowed by the story.
This week Aml Ameen and Shantol Jackson, the stars of Idris Elba‘s directorial debut Yardie, sat down for a post-screening Q&A and spilled the beans about making the movie, and here are some of the highlights.
Sundance London, bringing us highlights from the Sundance Film Festival, is coming to the capital later this week and I cannot wait! Here are the films I want to see:
I didn’t care the slightest about Pacific Rim when it came out in 2013 – I didn’t even go to watch it in the cinema because giant monsters versus giant robots aren’t appealing to me whatsoever. I did eventually watch it on TV but I didn’t give it my full attention so I made sure to do that with its sequel Pacific Rim Uprising, which is just okay.
Jessica Chastain is one of my favourite actresses – she always gives an excellent performance and always picks interesting roles. She makes no exception with Molly’s Game, which tells an absolutely fascinating true story.
On Wednesday night, Jessica Chastain and Idris Elba hit the poker-themed green carpet in London’s Leicester Square for the U.K. premiere of Molly’s Game alongside writer/director Aaron Sorkin and the real Molly Bloom, and you can check out all my pics below!
You know what time it is! Movie preview time! Here’s where I list what I want to see/recommend people check out each month.
This week Tom Hardy was the latest actor to be named “the favourite” to play James Bond and to be honest, I just rolled my eyes. I am fed up with this speculation and the endless list of people who could be in the frame.
