Jane Got A Gun Film Review.

 
Picture
By Adam Ray Palmer
 
Today’s review is a film that was on The Black List in 2011 where great scripts for films are yet to be picked up by a production company.
 
Luckily, Relativity Media and Co. picked up the movie and decided to give it the green light a couple of years ago.
 
After a few hiccups and tribulations, The Weinstein Company distributed Jane Got A Gun earlier this month with a fresh new cast and team…

Dheepan Film Review.

 
Picture
By Adam Ray Palmer
 
Today’s review comes courtesy of French filmmaker Jacques Audiard and his usual production gang. The team behind A Prophet from 2009 and Rust And Bone from 2012 have returned with their 2015 effort called Dheepan.
 
Audiard has been making headlines, critically, since the early noughties with awards and nominations galore. Jacques latest film is another award-winner from his impressive canon.
 
Dheepan is currently showing at the Phoenix cinema in Leicester and that is the place I managed to catch it too…

Victoria Film Review.

 
Picture
By Adam Ray Palmer
 
Today’s review is actually a joy to write. This Silver Bear-winning feature from last year’s Berlin Film Festival is quietly being shown around the UK but it’s certainly making loud statements.
 
I caught this delight at the Phoenix cinema in Leicester. As I left the theatre, I felt so pleased that such a great cinema shows these types of films else I would have missed it. The mainstream pictures are not always the way to go as the Phoenix can prove that.
 
Victoria is a great piece of film to rival the mainstream, perhaps even claim the victory…

The Jungle Book Film Review.

 
Picture
By Adam Ray Palmer
 
Today’s review is the rebooted version of a fifties classic. 50 years on from the original Jungle Book, and 20 years since the last outing, the film has been revisited by Walt Disney once again.
 
This time around, Jon Favreau is at the helm to direct and produce the fantasy adventure movie with an impressive cast and a sizeable budget.
 
Everyone knows the tale of Jungle Book, but with live-action pieces mixed in with CGI sequences; this can only be a joy surely?

High Rise Film Review.

 
Picture
By Adam Ray Palmer
 
Today’s review comes courtesy of Ben Wheatley via the Toronto Film Festival, London Film Festival and now the Phoenix cinema in Leicester.
 
I had the pleasure of catching a sneak peak of High Rise last October but once I read that the Phoenix were showing it, I had to revisit the movie again.
 
High Rise is just one of those films where you can take different things away from it each time you see it, but did I still enjoy it the second time around?

Eddie The Eagle Film Review.

 
Picture
By Adam Ray Palmer
 
Today’s review is a humble biopic. Eddie The Eagle documents the life and challenges Eddie Edwards faced on his run-up to Olympic stardom.
 
I caught this feel-good movie earlier this week at the Phoenix Cinema in Leicester. There was something about the little screening I was in that made this film hit home even better. It felt like the perfect setting for an underdog story – up, close and personal.
 
I had been worried about seeing this film because I wanted to love it… But with talented Dexter Fletcher at the helm, nothing could go wrong surely…

The Huntsman: Winter's War Film Review.

 
Picture
By Adam Ray Palmer
 
Today's review is the second instalment in a big-budget fairy-tale franchise. This movie follows the 2012 hit, Snow White and the Huntsman, which starred an array of talent - most of which return for this outing.
 
The Huntsman: Winter's War serves as a sequel, yet also a prequel, to the 2012 film. Kristen Stewart does not return to this follow-up as it tells a side-story where Snow White is only briefly mentioned.
 
Chris Hemsworth, Charlize Theron, and Sam Claflin all return with extra talent in Jessica Chastain and Emily Blunt coming aboard…

Disorder Film Review.

 
Picture
By Adam Ray Palmer
 
Continuing with Cineroom’s objective to cover a more diverse range of film, I visited the Phoenix Cinema in Leicester on Wednesday to catch a French drama named Disorder.
 
Cineroom has decided to review more foreign films and the Phoenix is great place to visit for these movies with its friendly and homely environment – let alone a great choice of movies.
 
Today’s film stars Hollywood’s Diane Kruger and soon-to-be a household name Matthias Schoenaerts, who I luckily had the pleasure of meeting last September in Venice…
