Bright


After attempting career Suicide, Smith keeps gasping for Ayer, this time as the Neo-cop protagonist of Fantastic Bigots and How to Bind Them.

Collateral Beauty


Life is Cynical continues Will Smith’s Pursuit of Oskars but falls like so many dominos as it drifts from clichéd to conniving to contrived.

Suicide Squad


DC Dozen’s editing, writing, music and tone are more schizophrenic than its ‘characters’ allegedly are.
