Cinderella (2021) - Movie Review

After knocking it out of the park with her directorial debut in Blockers, I’ll admit to being excited for what Kay Cannon had planned next. But at the same time I was waiting for news of that film’s release, I was also hearing some less-than-glowing reactions to an adaptation of Cinderella that Amazon Studios had put together. Then I suddenly realised that these two films were indeed one and the same and… well, I was still hoping for something good, but that expectation has significantly dampened.

The Prom (2020) - Movie Review

James Corden really, really, really needs a new agent. His choice of scripts is getting out of hand. The Emoji Movie, Peter Rabbit, Cats, even the British dub of Norm Of The North; whatever potential he may have had in Hollywood, he has pissed away entirely by contributing to some of the absolute worst movies of the 2010s, and dragging down the few good ones he gets (like being the biggest sticking point in the otherwise-excellent Smallfoot). He is a walking warning flare for any movie he’s attached to, but his presence within those movies is only a symptom of much larger problems with those productions. And the same is true for this one, to the point where watching this brought something… ugly out of me.
