AUGUST & SEPTEMBER FILM RELEASES
02/08 Valerian and the City of a Tousand
IT It’s Stephen King-tastic this summer,
as September kicks off with the remake of the movie that did more harm to the world of clowns than John Wayne Gacy – IT. It may not have Tim Curry in it (sorry, in IT) but it does have a budget, and that’s almost as good. Is it (Sorry again, IT) scary? Well Stephen King apparently thinks so, and he thought that The Shining was shit so what does he know.
enhanced to be the perfect soldier and tasked with bringing down dangerous criminals. Johansson is good as Major/Motoko and it all looks spectacular. It’s not the Anime or the Manga, but it is worth a watch.
Teir Finest A talented copywriter, a grumpy
Planets. Overly long-titled action/sci-fi movie from French auteur Luc Besson (The Fifth Element). Besson’s sense of style has previously served him well in space, and this looks promising. It’s full of shining stars, from T Tauris such as Dane DeHaan and Cara Delevingne, to Red Dwarves such as Rutger Hauer and John Goodman. Vers l’infini et au-delà!
29/09
Flatliners Remake/reboot/rebirth of the cult 80s classic. Kiefer Sutherland (Flatliners, duh!) returns to find a whole new gang of students willing to top themselves in a controlled way to find out the truth of whether there’s an afterlife. It didn’t quite go to plan the first time, will he be better at it by now? Ellen Page, Diego Luna, and James Norton are among the would-be quacks about to find out.
18/08 Te Dark
SMILEY
screenwriter and a pompous actor come together to create some pro Britain propaganda films during the Second World War. Gemma Arteton, Sam Claflin and Bill Nighy have fun as the three respective leads in this surprisingly enjoyable film.
Guardians Of Te Galaxy:
Volume 2 The Guardians continue to bond as a family in their own unique way, whilst discovering the truth about Peter Quill’s (Chris Pratt) parents. Dave Bautista steals the show again as Drax, and the Mary Poppins line is the funniest thing I’ve heard all year.
Tower Long awaited (nervously, by fans of the books) Stephen King fantasy about an alternative wild-west- esque reality where a gunslinger called Roland (Idris Elba) is hunting a demonic sorcerer known as the man in black (Matthew McConaughey). By the way, if you’ve read the books and you’re hung up over the fact that Roland is black in the movie, have a fucking word with yourself.

Handmaiden Chan-Wook Park’s retelling of Sarah Waters’ novel Fingersmith sees Sookee (Tae-Ri Kim), a young Korean girl hired as a handmaiden to Japanese heiress Hideko (Min-Hee Kim), who is secretly involved in a plot to rob her new employer of her fortune. Utterly mesmerising.
