6 d. ago Ballerina review – Ana de Armas racks up the kills as she pirouettes into John Wick spin

De Armas is fun as a feisty assassin trained in ballet and martial arts, combining delicacy and violence in her quest for vengeance, with a cameo from Keanu. She doesn’t wear a tutu to fill goons with lead though That title could cause confusion. The film might accidentally tap into the Frozen customer-base, and millions of wide-eyed little girls in sparkly tutus and tiaras will show up at cinemas with their mums and dads to watch Keanu Reeves let a heavy-set gangster have it in the chops with a round from his specially customised Glock. Well, the confusion is deliberate. Here, the delicacy of ballet and the violence of martial arts are conflated. In this new spin-off feature from Keanu’s John Wick action franchise – an auxiliary episode on the timeline, between Wick episodes Three and Four, when JW was lying low, recovering from injuries – a mysterious new action-slash-classical-dance heroine called Eve now grands-jetés her way into the franchise, played by the always stylish Ana d...

1 week ago Impossibly frustrating: why Mission: Impossible 8 was a major letdown

Audiences may have flocked to the Final Reckoning but Tom Cruise’s latest mission ends up being incredibly underwhelmingIf the title is sincere, and this really is the final reckoning, then it’s been a franchise of two halves. Mission: Impossible diehards tend to underrate the first half (which ran from Brian De Palma’s brisk 1996 original to 2011’s fun Ghost Protocol) as much as they overrate the second (which launched with 2015’s Rogue Nation). Yet the rumbles and grumbles emanating from public screenings suggests a disgruntled consensus is forming around the concluding instalment: that this is an altogether disjointed way to resolve the affairs of Ethan Hunt and his IMF crew, and a shaky way to ignite the movie summer season. Ninety minutes in which nothing happens over and over again, followed by 70 minutes of M:I B-roll.To better diagnose this latest glitch in the Hollywood machine, we need to return to the relighting of the fuse. This was the franchise to which Tom Cruise retr...
