What Went Wrong With… Greed (2019)?

By What Went Wrong Or Right With...? on February 3, 2020 • ( 2 Comments )

Greed is a so-called satirical film written and directed by Michael Winterbottom. The movie is “inspired by” the life of billionaire Sir Philip Green, chairman of the Arcadia Group, a company which owns multiple high street clothing stores in the UK including Burton and Topshop. Green famously bought […]

A review of The Rhythm Section (2020)

What Went Wrong With… The Rhythm Section?

By What Went Wrong Or Right With...? on January 31, 2020 • ( 1 Comment )

Based on the book of the same name, The Rhythm Section is billed as an “action drama”, although I’m certain that genre designation was tacked-on after the movie’s first screening. Given the plot (a woman whose family is killed in a plane crash sets out to kill the […]

A review of The Turning (2020)

What Went Wrong With… The Turning?

By What Went Wrong Or Right With...? on January 24, 2020 • ( 3 Comments )

I’m no literature buff (or “book nonce” as I like to call them) so I’ll admit from the outset that I’ve never read The Turn Of The Screw by Henry James. I have however, watched the most famous adaptation; The Innocents starring Deborah Kerr and The Others starring […]

A review of Bad Boys For Life

What Went Wrong With… Bad Boys For Life?

By What Went Wrong Or Right With...? on January 17, 2020 • ( 7 Comments )

Remember when Beverly Hills Cop got to part III and everything became trashy and unfunny? The movie was disappointing on many levels, especially since it looked and felt nothing like the first two. Well, unfortunately for fans of Bad Boys, this has also happened to your favourite franchise. […]

An image of an almost empty Watch Now window in Apple TV+ app

What Went Wrong With… Apple TV+?

By What Went Wrong Or Right With...? on January 10, 2020 • ( 8 Comments )

Apple TV+ has a 7 day free trial and unfortunately for Apple, you can watch their entire catalogue during that time. You may think I’m exaggerating but no, if you binge-watch, you can literally view every single Apple Original programme in that time frame because the service only […]

A poster for Guy Ritchie's The Gentlemen acknowledging the racism

What Went Wrong With… The Gentlemen?

By What Went Wrong Or Right With...? on January 1, 2020 • ( 16 Comments )

Guy Ritchie is back with his latest film The Gentlemen, which on the surface, purports to be a back-to-his-roots offering in the same vein as Lock, Stock And Two Smoking Barrels or Snatch. The trailer and promotion seems to be completely misleading however, as what we actually have […]

Photographs of actor Adam Driver young and old

What Went Wrong With… Adam Driver?

By What Went Wrong Or Right With...? on December 27, 2019 • ( 17 Comments )

When I first saw Adam Driver on screen, I thought he had the appearance and demeanour of a second-rate serial killer. According to Wikipedia, as a child, Driver set fire to things and set up a “Fight Club” after being influenced by the film. This means I wasn’t […]

A review of Star Wars: The Rise Of Skywalker and the Star Wars franchise

What Went Wrong With… Star Wars: The Rise Of Skywalker & The Star Wars Franchise?

By What Went Wrong Or Right With...? on December 19, 2019 • ( 7 Comments )

Star Wars has been going downhill ever since George Lucas began inserting mediocre CGI into his original trilogy so they’d match his inferior, digitally-created prequel trilogy. In my opinion, A New Hope, The Empire Strikes Back, and Return Of The Jedi are massively overrated but I’ll also admit […]

A review of Black Christmas (2019)

What Went Wrong With… Black Christmas (2019)?

By What Went Wrong Or Right With...? on December 12, 2019 • ( 7 Comments )

2019’s Black Christmas is described online as a “loose remake” of the 1974 film of the same name, but that’s putting it mildly. This is in no way a remake. This movie has hi-jacked the title of a semi-classic horror and superimposed it’s own narrative, a messy narrative […]

A caricature of Chris Evans (the radio and TV presenter)

What Went Wrong With… Chris Evans?

By What Went Wrong Or Right With...? on December 3, 2019 • ( 4 Comments )

Chris Evans (no, not the actor) is a radio and television presenter who routinely makes it into various “rich lists”. In 2017 for instance, Evans was the BBC’s highest paid presenter, earning approximately £2.25 million. To many people (mostly blinkered morons), wealth indicates talent and it apparently shows […]

A review of 21 Bridges by What Went Wrong Or Right With...?

What Went Wrong With… 21 Bridges?

By What Went Wrong Or Right With...? on November 22, 2019 • ( 3 Comments )

There’s nothing more disappointing than a thriller that misses the mark. 21 Bridges had potential, after all, it was described as the kind of thriller “they don’t make any more”. I took that to mean gritty, realistic, and edge-of-your-seat but unfortunately the film-makers must have meant straight-to-DVD. It’s […]

A review of The Good Liar for whatwentwrongwith.com

What Went Wrong With… The Good Liar?

By What Went Wrong Or Right With...? on November 11, 2019 • ( 2 Comments )

It’s very disappointing when a thriller that claims to be labyrinthine turns out to be completely predictable. The Good Liar sports the tagline of “Read Between The Lies” but as soon as it begins (or even when you’re watching the trailer) you can see what’s coming a mile […]

A review of Midway (2019) for whatwentwrongwith.com

What Went Wrong With… Midway?

By What Went Wrong Or Right With...? on November 10, 2019 • ( Leave a comment )

Roland Emmerich’s films are getting progressively worse. Universal Soldier and Independence Day were corny but there was something likeable about them, and whether it was the actors or the playful, non-serious premise, they successfully entertained. Once Emmerich abandoned miniatures and moved over to computer generated imagery, his films […]
