Watching The Waterfront on Netflix and totally did not have Topher Grace as quirky drug kingpin on my 2025 bingo card.

I didn't read the clues because I opted out of this one.

I wondered if it might be weapons because it comes out next week.

#FilmSky #CinemaSky, check out what the critics have been saying about #TheMireFilm, our latest feature.

Fancy a contained, psychological thriller film? A film about a cult leader trying to escape the web of his own lies?

Pretty mad to me that the best versions of #MobyDick are a 1950s film and an 80s cartoon my parents bought me when I was six.

Would you be interested in a psychological thriller about cult leader caught in a game of cat and mouse with his two most loyal followers on the eve of a planned mass suicide?

Do you review indie films, Kieran?

I get the same way when I hear people talk about aspect ratios.

He was right.
