Tributary Stu

It’s been a while since I last had such a high quality week strung together. A lot of the stuff could have made a run at the movie of the week title, but in the end it was really hard to argue against… Movie of the Week The Florida Project (2017) When you watch a movie about… Read more

The first fluttering of weakness this week, as I’ve barely covered four lukewarm movies. It makes it that much harder to pick a standout. But here we go: Movie of the Week  Only the Brave (2017) When fire was extinguished by my unrelenting tears Only the Brave (2017): A true-story kind of affair, this movie… Read more

Awards season is looming, which means a bunch of interesting stuff is about to hit the cinemas. One example thereof is this week’s… Movie of the Week The Disaster Artist (2017) When you’re stuck on Netflix Two Weeks Notice (2002): This slushy little romcom of the early millenium, starring Hugh Grant and Sandra Bullock at the… Read more

Once again, this week’s top choice is more commendable for the attempt, not the result. Ah well. Movie of the Week The Wizard of Lies (2017) A Christmas Prince… Read more

A very light week once again, with some foodies, some romcomies, some biopicies…that got out of hand quickly. Hard to pick a stand-out, but I’ll go with nostalgia and feel-good, seeing how Christmas is just around the corner. Movie of the Week Definitely Maybe (2008) The original before the remake Mostly Martha (2001): The original… Read more

The lack of productivity from two weeks ago forced me to postpone all reviewing endeavours. It’s going to be obvious though that Defending your Life and The Trip are part of a different mind frame to the latter choices.
