END SEAT

Certificate: 12 Running time: 122 minutes Starring: Millie Bobby Brown, Louis Partridge, Henry Cavill, Sam Clafin, Burn Gorman, Helena Bonham Carter Directed by: Henry Bradbeer The story: Intrepid teenager Enola Holmes, sister of famous detective Sherlock, is tasked with her own mystery to solve when her mother goes missing and she meets a runaway lord. The verdict: Sadly, due to what is currently going on in the world, more and more films are being postponed and pushed back from theatrical releases. With that in mind, new films dropping on streaming services are more appreciated than ever. This week, Netflix dropped their latest film Enola Holmes. And frankly, this may be the film that we all need right now. Based on the book of the same name by Nancy Springer, Enola Holmes intrigued me with its description and its cast but I had no particular expectations for the film. I ended up thoroughly enjoying it. Firstly, this is a film that everyone can enjoy....

Certificate: 18 Running time: 138 minutes Starring: Tom Holland, Eliza Scanlan, Robert Pattinson, Haley Bennett, Bill Skarsgård, Riley Keough, Sebastian Stan Directed by: Antonio Campos. The story: Spanning a number of years from the late 1940's to the 1960's, The Devil All the Time follows a group of people living in southern West Virginia and Ohio and the dark truth behind small town life in rural America. The verdict: This was a film that I had been looking forward to for awhile. When it was first announced and the cast involved was named, I thought that The Devil All the Time would definitely be a contender for one of the best films of the year. And then the film was released to a number of very mixed reviews, and suddenly I was a lot more apprehensive to watch this film. Was The Devil All the Time actually going to be a massive disappointment? Well, having just watched the film, I have to say that I firmly disagree with the negative ...

Running time: 65 minutes Starring: Nathaniel P. Erlandsson, Robin Franzén, Carl Sundström Directed by: Carl Sundström The story: When three documentary filmmakers hear about a lake where innocent women accused of witchery were drowned in the 17th century, they set out to find the place known as The Witch Path which leads to The Witch Lake. However, with both the path and the lake closed off and the local township unwilling to answer why, the three filmmakers set out to discover why. The verdict: The found footage genre is a tried and tested genre in film, especially horror, and so any new found footage film will need to provide audiences with something new if it wants to stand out. Documenting the Witch Path, whilst similar to other films such as The Blair Witch Project, does make an attempt to differentiate itself - however to explain exactly how would be a plot spoiler and End Seat does not believe in plot spoilers! Documenting the Witch Path begins...

Certificate: 15 Running time: 93 minutes Starring: Caren Pistorius, Russell Crowe, Gabriel Bateman, Jimmi Simpson, Austin P. McKenzie, Juliene Joyner. Directed by: Derrick Borte. The story: A woman is terrorised by a violent stranger after a road rage incident. The verdict: Unhinged is a special film, but probably not for the reasons that you might be expecting. It is not special because of its content but rather because it was one of the first films to be released back at theatres following several months of closures. With the current limited release schedule, it is great to see Unhinged make that decisive step to still go for a theatrical release. Unhinged makes an effort to play on our disenfranchisement and unrest, and by setting the action in 'The City' and calling the antagonist 'The Man,' the audience is invited to feel that this could happen to anyone and could happen anywhere. The fact is that yes, incidents of road rage and terrible ...

Certificate: 15 Running time: 133 minutes Starring: Jessie Buckley, Jesse Plemons, Toni Collette, David Thewlis Directed by: Charlie Kaufman. The story: A young woman, contemplating ending her six week relationship with her boyfriend, travels to a remote farm house in the countryside to meet his parents. The verdict: If you are familiar with Charlie Kaufman then you know to expect nothing less from him than labyrinthine plots, philosophical musings and a general leaning towards the weird and the wonderful. And for those not familiar with Kaufman - come in and welcome to the craziness. I'm Thinking of Ending Things certainly falls into the above sphere. I have pondered over this review for slightly longer than normal and if I'm honest, I'm still not entirely sure of what I think of this film. This is very unusual for me as I nearly always have definitive feelings on the films I have watched, and especially how I have felt whilst watching them and w...
