Never Let Me Go
Good 83 Points 2010

Never Let Me Go never fully had me. It starts well enough, setting up a sensitive love triangle amongst a bunch of Stepford Kids at a remote British boarding school, and then reveals an intriguing SciFi ethical dilemma. However, the movie is atmospheric in the extreme and low key to a point o…

Dark Shadows
Great 83 Points 2012

There’s lots to sink your teeth into – lots to like and chew over – in the reimagining of Dark Shadows. Camp-classic TV soap opera, it stands up to eccentric genius Tim Burton’s silver screen amplification.
