REVIEW: Meg 2: The Trench (2023, dir. Ben Wheatley)
Meg 2: The Trench is a gloriously dumb B-movie monster sequel that, critically speaking, is perhaps too stupid to fathom, but thanks to some playful filmmaking by Ben Wheatley and a cast led by Jason Statham who are similarly refusing to take this material seriously, it’s a brainless blast that’s best experienced with a bit of booze in your system.
REVIEW: Joy Ride (2023, dir. Adele Lim)
Joy Ride is a largely amusing raunchy comedy that, in addition to some very funny set-pieces and gags, offers a liberating perspective on female sexuality as well as intriguing commentary on racial identity, and is held together by four dedicated lead turns, even when the film starts to fall apart in the third act.
