                                                                'What a fine thing capital punishment is' – Fagin Before Rita Ora was flouting lockdown rules by having a birthday party and flying to Egypt, she was out filming Twist , with permission I assume.  The modern day adaption of novel Oliver Twist overuses camera tricks and roof jumping and brings nothing of value to Dickens’ classic. Oliver, called Twist by friends, has lived on the streets for a large part of his life. When trying to escape from his latest run in with the police, he meets fellow rascals Batesey and Dodge who invite him to join their criminal family. The age of Twist and his newfound friends is ambiguous. They look like twenty-year-olds and behave like teenagers. Along with “The Charmer”, Red, Batesey and Dodge are the oldest children in Fagin’...

  ‘Well I’m not trying to land him, I’m just using him for sex.’ – Vivian Pretty Woman is one of those films that I was vaguely aware off but know nothing about it other than it’s supposed to be good. And after watching it, I’ve concluded that good is an understatement when describing the film’s effortless cool charm. The 1990 romantic comedy film follows fledgling prostitute Vivian Ward as she spends time with businessman Edward Lewis and struggles to keep things professional.

Vivian isn’t even confident about what her nightly rates should be having to ask her friend Kitty how much she should charge, let along if it's a good idea to spend the weekend wit...

‘Well I’m going to heaven lieutenant Dan’ – Forrest Gump The innocent Forrest Gump is loveable from the start. The 1994 film adaption of the Winston Groom novel of the same name tells the story of Forrest Gump, played by Tom Hanks, who was born with a curved spine as he navigates through life. Forrest has an admirable drive and focus on everything he does which enabled him to succeed in each of his new endeavours, all of which have a surprising historical impact. He literally does everything he is told or whatever his heart desires, such as drinking an abundance of Dr Pepper. When explaining himself he simply states, ‘stupid is as stupid does.’ He has the same dedication in maintaining his relationships with both friends and family particularly Jenny(Robin Wright) whom he loves but she spends the film struggling to find herself. Her adventures are more varied and less successful than Forrest’s, they even push her to the edge but still Forrest remains committed to thei...
