Rounding the year off, these are my top 4 films of 2019.
Loach delivers an uncompromising, humane exploration of the precarity and pain caused by today’s ‘gig economy’.
The director’s First World War action-drama drags us right into the mud, blood and despair with unflinching force.
Waititi’s “Boy In The Nazi Uniform” is unexpectedly ticklish and tender, yet unsteady around its difficult subject-matter.
Lacking elegance, charm or quirky subversiveness, Hooper’s perplexing yet passable musical adaptation never lands on its feet.
My worst films of 2019: the woeful, shameless and disappointing.
While faith in the cast is rewarded, Abram’s concluding chapter struggles with this trilogy’s lack of vision.
