3 d. ago Mr Blake at Your Service review – John Malkovich does worst French accent ever in baffling comedy misfire

Gilles Legardinie’s broad dramedy set in a chateau, co-starring Fanny Ardant and Émilie Dequenne, is an ordeal to watch. Sacré bleu! This truly bizarre film has a substantial reserve of goodwill to draw on: among its blue-chip cast are John Malkovich and Fanny Ardant, and it’s also the final film of the Belgian star Émilie Dequenne, famous for winning the best actress award at Cannes for her nonprofessional debut in Rosetta in 1999, who sadly died of cancer in March at the age of 43. It is a broad and baffling dramedy, directed by the bestselling French author Gilles Legardinier, and adapted from his 2012 novel Complètement Cramé! (Completely Burnt Out!).Malkovich plays a wealthy grieving widower called Andrew Blake, supposedly from England, who, to ease his broken heart, takes a job as a butler in a French chateau whose owner (Ardant) has fallen on hard times. It is a sentimental journey for him, as many years ago he first met his French wife, Diane, in the chateau’s sumptuous grou...

3 d. ago Chad Powers review – Glen Powell gives one of the most magnetic and magical performances in memory

This goofy sports sitcom may sound like a Ted Lasso retread, but Powell turns a wacky premise into something funny, moving, deliberately uncomfortable and totally irresistible. What a feat!You don’t have to look too hard at Disney+’s new sitcom to see the stitches. This is a flagrant Frankenstein of a show; a grab bag of elements from things that are already incredibly popular. It’s a good-natured sports comedy in the mould of Ted Lasso. Its star is Glen Powell, a man with the fairly miraculous ability to unite both warring sides of 2025 America. It shamelessly lifts the plot of Mrs Doubtfire (the second highest grossing film worldwide in 1993, fact fans) and, according to the credits, it is based on a funny video of an American football player that went viral in 2022.It is thin gruel indeed, the sort of programme you imagine gets created after a particularly desperate ChatGPT session. And yet, despite this, Chad Powers is actually good. Better than good, in fact. It’s a funny, touc...

The Alchemised author shares why they were drawn to a war-torn love story, how a conservative upbringing shaped their writing, and the snobbery around fanfictionIn recent days, bookish pockets of TikTok and Instagram have been talking about one thing only. “I’ve been looking forward to this day more than I look forward to my wedding day,” says one creator, holding up to the camera a copy of the 1,040-page novel that was Penguin’s most pre-ordered debut of the year and has already netted a potentially record-breaking seven-figure film rights deal.How does a first-time novelist get out of the starting blocks quite like that? The thing is, the author behind the doorstopper dark fantasy novel, Alchemised, is no unknown debut: SenLinYu, 34, started off writing Harry Potter fanfiction that blew up online during the pandemic, racking up more than 20m downloads.

7 d. ago The Guide #210: Is One Battle After Another finally Paul Thomas Anderson’s Oscars moment?

In this week’s newsletter: The latest from the American virtuoso director is a big, swing-for-the-fences hit that looks certain to be an awards season contenderTruly, it is a hallowed date for cinephiles, Letterboxd addicts, film bros and people who will only watch movies in 70mm. Yes, happy One Battle After Another release day to all who celebrate.For card-carrying members of the tribe (and I’m absolutely one of them), the arrival of a new Paul Thomas Anderson film is an event equal in magnitude to Christmas Day meets the World Cup final meets McDonald’s bringing back the McRib. PTA – as the heads call him – may not be the most famous director of his age (Spielberg, Cameron, Scorsese, Nolan and even namesake Wes Anderson are more recognisable to the average filmgoer), but he is surely the most adored among his fans, a film-maker incapable of making a bad film.
