Northern Soul (2014) 🎬🎬🎬🎬 An obvious passion project 15 years in the making, and shedding light upon a time and movement that has been severely misrepresented and certainly overlooked through the mainstream lens, 'Northern Soul' is exactly what it says on the tin. With an emotionally charged soundtrack pulling you through an almost 'Quadrophenia-esque' narrative, this is an film experience that pays homage to a time when there was as much to live for as there was to give up, and with decent pacing and a linear storyline, it's no surprise that its cinematic debut drew in capacity crowds most likely relieved that at long last this mesmerisingly hypnotic dance scene is being given the proper respect it so deserves. If you love great soul music, and you can remember there's blood pumping through your veins, then 'Northern Soul' is an excellent slice of nostalgic cinema, while anybody remotely curious about the subject matter needs to get it on their playlist rotation sooner rather than later, and I challenge you not to move your legs and feet as the movie plays out. #northernsoul #2014 #music #film #nostalgia #dancing #wigan #soul #community #movies #moviereview #filmreview #2010s #cinema #movietime #watchfilms #greatfilm

Training Day 🎬🎬🎬🎬🎬 Directed by the highly talented Antoine Fuqua (Tears of the Sun, The Equalizer 1& 2), 'Training Day' is a dark window into police corruption and ingrained racism left unchecked to bubble and boil away at the social moral fabric of American life, and it's a frequently unsettling account of the psychology used by those often trapped within the walls of their career choices, if only to survive a hierarchy so polluted the lines of power become lost in translation. Direction is tight, the narrative is compellingly crafted and there's nary a flaw to bemoan aside from the obvious poetic and artistic licence used in films of this genre, however it's perhaps more likely that much of that witnessed is simply drawn from first-hand perspective rather than fictitious embellishment, and so for me this is a timeless and critically accomplished example of precise character-driven filmmaking. In closing, if you enjoy thrilling cop flicks, then 'Training Day' towers above many of its ilk, and I can think of no good reason why everybody shouldn't grab hold of this title and watch the two leads deliver stellar performances amidst a concrete jungle built to swallow the vulnerable whole. #trainingday #denzel #denzelwashington #ethanhawke #antoinefuqua #cops #thriller #greatmovie #filmreview #cinema #corruption #2001 #2000s #2000smovies #film #films #excellent

I Spit on Your Grave (1978) 🎬🎬🎬🎬 I've known about this slasher revenge movie since my childhood, and yet never gave it a second thought until when reviewing my horror knowledge I remembered how this 'video nasty' had escaped my attention for many years, and so took the time to watch what many have considered a mindless, gratuitous depravity vehicle unworthy of time nor attention. I'll be brutally honest in saying that the first act is enough to make anybody switch off, primarily because there appears to be no discernible narrative to remotely justify what unfolds, and yet shortly afterwards the unquestionable heroine of this disturbing film emerges with a power and courage that few could only display both as an actress and rape survivor. Having walked down the remaining cast with such focus and deliberation you cannot help but feel that when this title played in theatres, women everywhere were suddenly given a voice and legitimised reaction against the normalised violence dispensed by the hands of men, all of which lifts this 'flick' beyond its visual parameters and into a forced perspective leaving its detractors foolish and ignorant as to a truth experienced by women the world over. In closing, 'I Spit on Your Grave' begs watching for the simple reason that to look away or cast disdain towards its bloody premise is to deny that these acts can and do still happen even now, while I can only tip my hat to the frankly amazing Camille Keaton for her incredible courage and willingness to immerse herself into a world of pain, confusion and rage in order to send a message to those who might otherwise see themselves as helpless victims. #women #ispitonyourgrave #1978 #revenge #camillekeaton #heroine #survival #videonasty #1970s #70smovies #courage #films #filmreview #moviereview #cultclassic #movies #cinema

Underwater (2020) 🎬🎬🎬 Allegedly inspired by the H.P. Lovecraft imagining of 'Cthulhu' (an aquatic monster of some design), 'Underwater' follows a small crew of drilling workers as they navigate one point of operation to another in the wake of what's perceived as an explosion of sorts. The protagonist is Kristen Stewart (Twilight), and although she evidently puts her best foot forward, the overall narrative feels somewhat reduced in favour of immediate tension, and although I can see a degree of logic in such a shift, any sense of scale and complexity is left to visual interpretation as opposed to knowing enough about this tight ensemble to care about their potential demise, while the inky darkness of the Mariana Trench often means confusion in action scenes, and little sense of the onscreen activity, all of which leaves 'Underwater' crushed under the nautical weight of its ambition. If you're into claustrophobic sci-fi and can appreciate decent production values, then 'Underwater' might prove buoyant enough to keep you locked in through to the end, however I doubt there's enough for most people to want a return visit, while I see no reason to go back myself any time soon, so at best this is a one-time dose of competent entertainment that pairs well with a few beers and a bowl of popcorn. #underwater #movies #kristenstewart #2020 #films #deepsea #cthulhu #mythology #marianatrench #mexicangulf #ocean #filmreview #moviereview #scifi #twilight #cinema
