The Northman – Movie Review
The Northman written by Robert Eggers and Sjón follows the story of Amleth, a Norse prince who is Hel-bent on avenging his father’s death and his mother’s kidnapping. Despite being visually entrancing with its attention to the minutiae of the Norse world, cinematography and overall atmosphere, The Northman fails in translating the themes that are embedded into the story. #TheNorthman

Belfast, written and directed by Kenneth Branagh is a beautiful but not without fault semi-autobiographical film that explores a wonderful childhood disrupted by conflict.

Despite this, a few others likeContinue reading “Belfast – Movie Review”

The Green Knight – Movie Review
The Green Knight written and directed by David Lowery is a film that ultimately let me down. As someone who’s life has been influenced by Arthurian legends and their honorable and brave deeds I had high hopes for the A24 medieval fantasy. While a visionary work of art evoking the medieval realities of straddling bothContinue reading “The Green Knight – Movie Review”
