Underground Film Club – The Nuge.
https://thenuge.co.uk/2014/11/26/underground-film-club
November 26, 2014. Cinemas are awful, aren’t they? I’m not talking about the artform. I like. Unsurprisingly, savvy Londoners have been turning to alternatives, and a veritable popcorn-flavoured smorgasbord of pop up cinemas have, in a very literal sense, popped up all over the city. One such pop-up is the Rooftop Film Club, in which hardy souls surrendered themselves to the Great British Weather for movies under the stars. Inside the auditorium itself, the curvature of the tunnels gives the whole thing ...

November 6, 2015. A spectre is haunting Bond movies. Ever since the Berlin Wall fell, 007 has had a bit of an identity crisis: caught between cold assassin and cosy quip merchant, between serious espionage and groan-nuendo misogyny, between eras and attitudes. Austin Powers-grade cliches abound. Here is the villain openly inviting Bond to his evil lair for some reason! Here is the villain monologuing his evil plan in detail! In a sense, this is all fine. If you’re after a familiar Bond, you’ll find e...

April 17, 2014. Most thrillers tend to follow a fairly rigorous formula. More often than not, it’s a murder or crime that triggers the thrills. Perhaps a web of conspiracy that goes all the way to the top. Most likely a trigger-happy hero at its centre. Click to email (Opens in new window). Share on Facebook (Opens in new window).

June 10, 2015. I didn’t know anything about Timbuktu. Going in, which is fitting, I suppose, for a film named after a place considered by Westerners as unfathomably distant and unknowable. (Do Africans have a ‘Timbuktu’ equivalent? Do Saharan villagers say things like from here to Milton Keynes? Put aside their extreme religious or murderous elements and you arrive at one incontrovertible truth: ISIS are just massive, massive arseholes. They ban cigarettes, music, and footballs. They force women ...Witne...

Ant-Man – The Nuge.
https://thenuge.co.uk/2015/07/12/ant-man
July 12, 2015. As one of over a thousand Marvel superheroes all presumably making their way to the big screen, Ant-Man is no easy proposition. To those not versed in Marvel’s prolific comic book heritage, the superhero sounds, well, a bit ridiculous, really. A man who can shrink to the size of an insect makes for a less than impressive superhero when stacked up against Thor, the God of Thunder. As Lang, Rudd has a fantastically dopey charm, which grounds the movie into something approaching believable, a...
