Joe Cole delivers one of the years best performances as Billy Moore in this harrowing biopic about life in a Thai prison and suffering with drug addiction.

31 Days of Film: Downsizing
Alexander Payne’s near future environmental dystopian black comedy is neither funny enough nor insightful enough to make up for its lack of focus and over-long plot.
31 Days of Film: Mary Queen of Scots
Saoirse Ronan and Margot Robbie deliver typically excellent performances but ultimately Josie Rourke’s historical drama lets down its two stars.
31 Days of Film: Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse
Marvel and Sony’s most recent collaborative Spider-Man movie is one of the most fun movies of 2018 and behind excellent voice performances and visually stunning art is one of the best superhero movies in a long time.
31 Days of Film: Roma
Alfonso Cuarón returns after a five year break to tell the beautiful and affecting story of a family drama set on the backdrop of a politically turbulent 1970 Mexico City.
31 Days of Film: Bicycle Thieves
The 1948 classic Bicycle Thieves is a film worthy of the moniker and its hyper-realistic story and timeless performances make it a stand out of its era.
31 Days of Film: Kodachrome
Netflix’s family drama/road trip movie is an unworthy vehicle for its three leads but they give good enough performances to make the film at least worth the audience’s while.
