Grethe Kemp City Press (South Africa) Jan 8, 2020 It's all so formulaic, so intentional, so transparently focused on a specific audience to milk a specific dollar. Go to Full Review Ant-Man (2015) 83% 80%

Grethe Kemp City Press (South Africa) Jan 8, 2020 4/5 Bateman is superb in his role as, well, an arsehole, and Edgerton's subtle portrayal of a quietly off kilter outsider about to snap is masterful. Go to Full Review The Gift (2015) 92% 75%

Grethe Kemp City Press (South Africa) Jan 8, 2020 The Hateful Eight still stands head and shoulders above most other fare on offer in cinemas right now, and it's a worthy addition to the Tarantino library. Go to Full Review The Hateful Eight (2015) 74% 77%

Grethe Kemp Channel24 (South Africa) Jan 7, 2020 Mills, to his credit, creates realistic scenarios with natural dialogue, but this also happens to make the movie, well, very boring. Go to Full Review 20th Century Women (2016) 88% 74%

Grethe Kemp Channel24 (South Africa) Jan 7, 2020 Jenkins' Diana is vulnerable but strong, compassionate but fierce, good-hearted but no pushover. This film is a solid springboard for Diana to be fleshed out in further instalments. Go to Full Review Wonder Woman (2017) 93% 83%

Grethe Kemp Channel24 (South Africa) Jan 7, 2020 Instead of painting a dapper Indiana Jonesian picture of a valiant white man making friends with the natives and conquering the jungle, it shows Fawcett as self-obsessed. Go to Full Review The Lost City of Z (2016) 85% 58%

Grethe Kemp Channel24 (South Africa) Jan 7, 2020 Though there's still plenty in the film that should be lauded - the saturated and claustrophobic cinematography, and potent performances from most of the cast, for instance - it's a film that should be watched with a disclaimer.

Grethe Kemp Channel24 (South Africa) Jan 7, 2020 1/5 She (Bella Thorne) is the clichéd Goth girl incarnate, made even more laughable by the fact that almost no teenager in 2017 still wears the studded belts and corset tops that is Belle's "sad girl" costume.

Grethe Kemp Channel24 (South Africa) Jan 7, 2020 What we get is a weird survival romance with tedious dialogue. I love Winslet, as I'm sure we all do, but after a while her character goes from witty to whiny. Go to Full Review The Mountain Between Us (2017) 39% 49%

Grethe Kemp Channel24 (South Africa) Jan 7, 2020 3/5 The Post should be a clarion call for the US media to do better, instead of an ode to its apparent infallible nobility. I found that the film was undone by its self-congratulatory message. Go to Full Review The Post (2017) 88% 74%

Grethe Kemp Channel24 (South Africa) Jan 7, 2020 4.5/5 The Disaster Artist is unique, off kilter and strangely inspiring in the end. To his credit, it's a movie only a fellow wierdo like James Franco could make. Go see it. Go to Full Review The Disaster Artist (2017) 90% 85%
