  • Trigger | UKFRF 2022

    Watch Trigger at the 2022 UK Film Review Festival. See the UKFRF 2022 lineup and buy your festival pass. Trigger Listen to our review on the film podcast What our film review said: READ FULL REVIEW London is wonderfully realised – even from the back of a cab – by high-quality production and inventive visual storytelling. The lights of the city giving way to the unlit suburbs marks for a telling tonal shift, as the story literally and figuratively gets darker. The positioning of the camera in the early scenes gives the impression that the viewers are sat opposite the women in the cab, bringing the audience into their situation effectively. Proudly supporting MediCinema for our 2022 film festival.

  • Chris Buick Film Critic | UK Film Review

    Chris Buick writes movie reviews for UK Film Critic. As one of the talented UK film critics, find out more here. Chris Buick There are a couple of things in my life I am passionate about; music, Lego, Batman, Lego Batman. But the one thing that always stands miles above all others is film. My informal education started from a very young age with my parents, especially my mum, introducing me to classic films and taking me on countless trips to the local cinema to see the latest big releases. Since then I have never looked back and my passion for film keeps growing every day and it still amazes me the power cinema can have and the experiences it can give you. Having the opportunity to write for UK Film Review has given me the amazing privilege of experiencing a wide range of works from all different genres, topics and directors that I would otherwise have probably never seen, as well as being able to learn from the other writers and improve my own writing in the process. Listing my favourite films can be hard, but there are some that always come back to me. Jaws (my all-time favourite), Inglourious Basterds, Baby Driver, The Dark Knight and Young Frankenstein, as well as being a fan of the works of great directors such as Damien Chazelle, Edgar Wright, Taika Waititi and Christopher Nolan.

The film begins as a cosy almost nostalgic snapshot of a simple life. The coach is a microcosm of a close knit community where people lived in each other’s pockets. The death then changes the tenor and everyone on board becomes a suspect. Proudly supporting MediCinema for our 2022 film festival.

Ruth Listen to our review on the film podcast What our film review said: READ FULL REVIEW Ruth is one of many films exploring dementia, and the effects it has on those afflicted and their families. However, the clever decision to film in one take sets it apart. It is a fascinating experience, at once keenly empathetic and distant, acknowledging how we can never truly understand something like this unless we, too, experience it. The single take attempts to put us in Ruth’s shoes, and it definitely succeeds. Proudly supporting MediCinema for our 2022 film festival.

  • Brady Clark Film Critic | UK Film Review

    Brady Clark writes movie reviews for UK Film Critic. As one of the talented UK film critics, find out more here. Brady Clark As a novelist currently completing my PhD in Creative Writing at Brunel University, my passion for fiction is strong and perhaps more so when it comes to film. My particular loves are all things Marvel and any work by Scorsese, but I'm not restricted by genre so long as the plot is strong and the acting solid. I have been reviewing films for around a year, and enjoy seeing my words published where people want to read them as opposed to boring the non-cinephiles with my daily rambles. I am probably not very easily impressed as I enjoy grit, subtlety and being true to character, all of which can be hard to pull off well. My favourite films in order are The Departed (2006), Walk the Line (2005), Warrior (2011), Good Will Hunting (1997) and The Dark Knight (2008).

Award-winning director Kelly Reichardt (Meek’s Cutoff, Wendy and Lucy ) returns with the eagerly awaited First Cow , a gripping and glorious story of friendship and petty crime in the Old West. A taciturn loner and skilled cook (John Magaro) has travelled west and joined a group of fur trappers in Oregon Territory, though he only finds true connection with a Chinese immigrant (Orion Lee) also seeking his fortune. Soon the two collaborate on a successful but precarious cake-making business, the longevity of which is reliant upon the clandestine participation of a wealthy landowner’s prized milking cow – the very first, and only, in the territory. With this simple premise, Reichardt paints an authentic portrait of harsh frontier life in the early nineteenth century, depicting the immense, unsettling quietude of rural America and interrogating the very foundations on which the country was built. Following its premiere at the Telluride Film Festival, First Cow screened at the Locarno Film Festival, the New York Film Festival, and competed for the Golden Bear award at the Berlin Film Festival. It won Best Film at the 2020 New York Film Critics Circle Awards, and last month was nominated for three Film Independent Spirit Awards including Best Feature and Best Director. Combining sumptuous cinematography with a gently melancholic tale of pilfered dairy, sweet cakes and old-fashioned camaraderie, First Cow is the celebrated magnum opus of one of cinema’s most vital independent filmmakers. First Cow will be released by MUBI in UK cinemas on May 28 , and will be available to stream exclusively on MUBI starting 9 July The King's Man UK Home Release Date Announced The Latest King’s Man Film Will be Available on Digital February 9 and 4K Ultra HD™, Blu-ray™ and DVD on February 21.
