The Assistant might be the most unsparing portrayal of modern workplace toxicity since In The Company of Men.

Noble but frustratingly uneven attempt to revitalise stale haunted house conventions.

Should keep anyone with an appetite for bloodthirsty action satiated.

A much-needed gasp of air from tentpole franchises.

If you came for a doll saying profanities, this isn’t it.

The film is low-boil Soderbergh-lite.

This could have made for a rich, elegant, atmospheric horror flick.

Warning: this one will hurt.

May heat up your déjà vu meter, writes Aaron Yap.

It’s also Welles’ giant last-gasp fart at Hollywood, a deeply cynical meta-movie.

Should’ve made for a unique, even potent, supernatural period piece. Unfortunately, it doesn’t writes Aaron Yap.

I’m still uncertain if I buy 31-year- old Armie Hammer as a 24-year- old, but man, Luca Guadagnino’s Call Me by Your Name sure does sell its love story.

Borg vs. McEnroe remains watchable on the strength of its leads, who’re effective beyond the uncanny physical likeness to their real-life counterparts.
