I’m a huge fan of Aaron Sorkin‘s work so of course, I was excited for The Trial of the Chicago 7, which he has written and directed, and he didn’t disappoint – this is one of my favourite films of the year so far.
Emmys nominations: My thoughts
Today the nominations for the Primetime Emmy Awards were announced and this is a summary of my thoughts reading the shortlist:
The Gentlemen: Film Review
It was good to see Guy Ritchie returning to his gangster roots and doing what he does best – a crime caper – but The Gentlemen just wasn’t my cup of tea.
Serenity: Film Review
I had heard very bad things about Serenity but I tried to go in with an open mind, thinking a movie starring Matthew McConaughey and Anne Hathaway can’t be that bad, but I’m here to tell you it can!
The Judge: Film Review
This is the first time I’ve seen Robert Downey Jr. as anything besides Tony Stark/Iron Man and it’s quite hard to imagine him as anyone else – especially as his character here is still the same egotistical, arrogant fast talking big shot. The film is good but it just doesn’t quite reach the emotional mark it is clearly aiming for.
