  50 Shades of Grey is something that immediately came to my mind when I first saw the trailer for Baby. But in sort of a reverse way as Nicole Kidman stars as a rather powerful CEO who puts her career and entire life on the line when she begins a torrid affair with a young intern at her company played by Harris Dickinson. Babygirl is an erotic thriller no doubt as once the relationship between Kidman and Dickson begins it's balls to the wall sexual tension that you could cut with a knife straight threw a lump of butter. With her position of power under the microscope the movie doesn't really focus on her role as CEO instead it solely focuses on her day to day extra activies let's say.  It's an excellent performnce by Nicole Kidman and boy oh boy is she utterly gorgeous here. From her many outfits and totally ripped body she is flawless and almost incapable to resist. As for Harris Dickson who plays her intern he comes across as a bit of a jerk for the most part in a pe...

  From Writer / Director Jesse Eisenberg who also stars alongside Kieran Clukin A Real Pain is a effortlessly witty story about mourning, learning to deal with loss and the love for ones family. The story follows a pair of cousins Benji and David played by Eisenberg and Culkin. After the death of their grandmother they set off on a journey off discovery to learn all about what she endured during the holocaust days before visiting her final resting place to pay their respects. It all takes place in Warsaw Poland and being shot on location it adds so much to the story being told.  Eisenberg and Culkin are fantastic here with some real clever dialogue and funny moments peppered throughout. Eisenberg's David is the classic case of being socially awkward and anxiety fuelled, he struggles to fit in with large groups while Culkin's Benji is the polar opposite. His personality is big and he will interact and get to know anyone at anytime. He ends up leaving a pretty big impact on the ...

  A love story that's out of order but by the time the credits begin to roll on We Live In Time you'll be left reeling in your own emotions of what just unfolde as Andrew Garfield and Florence Pugh take us on a remarkable journey of love, sadness, sickness and a learning to let go. We Live In Time isn't your typical rom-com so to speak. It does feature plenty of elements of said classic romcoms but with a very modern twist I felt. Florench Pugh starts as a once figure skater turned professional and master chef. Her life changes forever when she accidently runs over Andrew Garfield's young go getter who works for Weetabix of all places. Faith comes a knocking and we really are taken on a joruney with these two.  Set in the UK We Live In Time's way of telling a love story out of order does seem weird at first but once you get your head around it not only is it throughouly enjoyable but it is so engaging as you witness love blossom, life given birth to and utter sadnes...

  The fourth film from Writer / Director Robert Eggers is Nosferatu a reimaginng / remake of the 1920's classic. A bit of a passion project for Eggers is this as it's been said that he has been trying to get this movie off the ground since at least 2015. Well 10 years later it's here and it is as bold, inventive and terrifying as it is captivating. At it's core Nosferatu or should I say this version at least is a gothic tale of a haunted young woman's obssession with a Vampire who lusts deeply for her. That's all you really need to know but below the surface of it all lurks something far more sinister indeed.  If you've seen Robert Eggers previous work which includes The Wittch, The Lighthouse and most recent The Northman then you'll feel right at home here. Nosferatu has got to be one of the most artsy horror movies I've ever seen. Every scene leaps off the screen it's beyond spellbinding to watch unfold. Performance wise it is utterly remarkabl...
