Movie Reviews

Birth.Movies.Death. - 8/10 by Emily SearsIn his debut feature Starfish, first-time filmmaker A.T. White (frontman of the UK band Ghostlight) mixes science fiction, Lovecraftian monsters, and a stirring indie soundtrack to convey a deeply personal story about grief and loss.
Battle Royale With Cheese - 8/10 by Rosalynn Try-HaneThis is a biopic by numbers in reverse order so the worse is at the beginning of the film.
The Mail on Sunday (UK) - 8/10 by Matthew BondIt's a slow, agonising and, at times, heart-breaking watch, but it's brutally honest and very well acted.
MovieMail - 8/10 by Mike McCahillThe film doesn't quite connect emotionally as it might.
Eye for Film - 8/10 by Amber WilkinsonClark has crafted a film with restrained resonance that highlights a devastating disease while remembering that those who are dealing with it are what's most important.
Daily Mail (UK) - 8/10 by Brian VinerIt is gruelling to watch. But all the more important for it.
Radio Times - 8/10 by Trevor JohnstonClark's film treats bracing subject matter with honesty and often startling intimacy but never loses sight of the courage shown by this particular family and the many others in the country affected by a truly horrifying condition.
Guardian - 6/10 by Peter BradshawFroggatt's performance finds some strong notes. And a more sophisticated and complex film might well have failed to approach the painful realness of this story.
The List - 6/10 by Allan HunterStarfish is commendably restrained, thoughtful and well-acted but that doesn't stop it being a tough film to endure.
Scotsman - 6/10 by Alistair HarknessFeatures good performances from Tom Riley and Joanne Froggatt as the couple trying to come to terms with very altered lives.
