A Quiet Place Part II. Film Review.

Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating 8.5/10

Cast: Emily Blunt, Millicent Simmonds, Noah Jupe, Cillian Murphy, John Krasinski, Djimon Hounsou, Okieriete Onaodowan, Scoot McNairy.

Step lightly upon this Earth, for in the shadows lay those waiting for our footsteps to falter and for us to cry out in pain, and they will tear us apart.

If A Quiet Place was one of the surprise, and deserving hits of the last decade, then its sequel was almost a sure gone conclusion; it just demanded the continued involvement of John Krasinski, and in A Quiet Place Part II, the same racked up tension, of delivery without dialogue in some of its more observed and focused scenes, is key and astutely pursued.

Free Fire, Film Review. Picturehouse@F.A.C.T., Liverpool.

Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating 9/10

Cast: Enzo Cilenti, Sam Riley, Michael Smiley, Brie Larson, Cillian Murphy, Armie Hammer, Sharlto Copley, Babou Ceesay, Noah Taylor, Jack Reynor, Mark Monero, Patrick Bergin, Sara Dee, Tom Davis.

A film in which so much happens in the space of 90 minutes can either leave you so breathless that it will make you forget most of what has transpired on screen or reeling from the shock of it all that it stays with you forever; imprinted into your mind like a seared brand and smouldering long into the memory. These are the films that you want to see again because you know deep down that in between each involuntary blink, you missed so much, so much reference to the greatness that has unfolded; these are the films to absolutely love and defend to the death.
