A collection of short writing on the film of LFF 2025!

Has there ever been a worse title for a bigger movie than this summer lynchpin? Brad Pitt and Damson Idris flatline in this bloated excuse for a Maverick B-side.

For about 5 minutes, the most daring and mature animated feature made by a major American studio. And then it's not.

Romance, dancing, leaf humans, swashbuckling pirates and nude streaking; Scott Derrickson's 'The Gorge' has enough to fill that crater and then some.

Starship Troopers, Verhoeven, Trump, Guns, Hitler and the impossibility of satire in an evermore literal world.

The mountain lives and breathes in Paul W.S Anderson's Pompeii.

Red Notice and The Gray Man have set the standard, and Lift has come in and lowered the ante.
