London Latest Reviews

Two brothers hatch a plot to make their reunion wish come true.

The intriguing story of a woman discovered in a London flat three years after her death.

Three friends discover surfing as an escape from the violence of late-apartheid South Africa.

Jiang Wen's rumbustious comedy-adventure, set in the 1920s, is an Eastern Western. Chow Yun-Fat, Ge You and Jiang himself star as the three unscrupulous men vying for control of Goose Town: fun performances, and lots of flying bullets.

Director Robert Guediguian returns to his old Marseilles stamping ground for an entertaining, politically passionate drama starring the director's ensemble regulars.

Four men compete for the affections of Garance, a free spirited courtesan.

A dynamic, star-studded study of love in the 21st century.

An Albanian family are caught in a blood feud.

An existential drama about how two people’s relationship survives after one of them has a stroke.

A companion piece to Don't Expect Too Much, We Can't Go Home Again is an experimental vision of disillusioned American youth in the Seventies.
