As one season ends, another begins – and for once, we’re not talking about TV. Last month we received a huge amount of Haiku Reviews, which is fantastic! We love reading your short form poetic reviews, so keep tweeting them using the hashtag #haikureview. If you’re looking for some film inspiration, look no further – as chosen by our followers, we here present a selection of the very best, worst and most contraversial.
INVASION OF THE BLOOD FARMERS (@nicholascpappas)
A drive-in “classic.”
Chief Spano snubbed for Oscar?
It’s so bad it’s good.
KUBO AND THE TWO STRINGS (@airjoshb)
A fable unfolds.
Evocative. Poetic.
Laika’s masterpiece.
THE ADVENTURES OF TINTIN (David Brook)
This CG reboot
Overplays some set pieces
But remains great fun.
THE SHALLOWS (Darren Bolton)
It’s made in a way
That presumes audiences
Are beyond stupid.
THE BFG (Damien Beedham)
Technically superb
But very disappointing.
Read the book instead.
THE INVITATION (Darren Bolton)
A pretty bad script
Is helped by great direction
And performances.
GHOSTBUSTERSÂ (@airjoshb)
Night at the improv
Nostalgia turned against you
Empty on its own
GHOSTBUSTERS (@lornarabbit)
Ghost themed comedy.
It’s not that deep – can’t we all
Calm down and have fun?
LIGHTS OUTÂ (@nicholascpappas)
Full of surprises.
Strong character based horror
Leads to better scares.
HELL OR HIGH WATER (@possiblyevenme)
Chris Pine’s handlebar
moustache? Superb. Bridges plays
his standard role well.
