James Gunn’s The Suicide Squad takes off like a bat out of hell, sprinting through its set-up with an air of surefooted arrogance. ‘Don’t worry about it,’ Gunn seems to say, as he vaguely acknowledges the events of David Ayer’s 2016 Suicide Squad—perhaps thinking that…
REVIEW: Concrete Cowboy (TIFF 2020)
As adolescents, we’re hard pressed to believe that we’re any stretch of the imagination away from adulthood. Stubbornly, we deny ourselves any admittance that we lack the scope and depth of understanding of what it actually means to be an adult. We push ourselves into…

Thor: Ragnarok (2017): THE INFINITY SAGA
I like to think of superhero cinema as not so much a genre itself, but as a mould. At no disrespect to superhero cinema, it’s rare to find films featuring caped crusaders or intergalactic heroes that break away from storytelling convention and craft plots built…
Thor: The Dark World (2013): THE INFINITY SAGA
Easily the most maligned film in the MCU – I have heard many people say “All MCU films are good. Well, except The Dark World, obviously” – I am here, dear readers to launch a defence of the black sheep middle child of the Thor…
