- Licorice Pizza. Film. Comedy. What a joy Paul Thomas Anderson’s freewheeling film turned out to be. It cartwheels around the San Fernando Valley armed with all the local knowledge you’d expect (PTA, of course, grew up there), a cast of maverick characters – real (Bradley Cooper’s deranged movie exec Jon Peters) and otherwise (Sean Penn’s William Holden-like Hollywood warhorse, Jack Holden) – and a script loaded with zingers.

- The Green Knight. The Green Knight features castles, giants, witches and damsels in distress, just like countless swords-and-sorcery adventures before it.
- Raya and the Last Dragon. Funny, colourful and action-filled, this Disney family film set in the fictional ancient Asian kingdom of Kumandra is a delight.
Don’t Look Up. Comedy. 138 minutes ‧ R ‧ 2021. Nick Allen. December 24, 2021. 6 min read. It takes a certain kind of touch, a populist brilliance, to know that “Milk was a bad choice” could help launch a comedy empire. Adam McKay had that when he scoured through the many improvised lines of “Anchorman,” and co-created what will ...
