Digger review: Tom Cruiseâs wildest, best performance since last century (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Yes, Tom Cruise is back with a bang in the Oscars ring in his best performance since 1999âs Magnolia (itâs unbelievable to think it was in another millennium when Cruise last earned an acting nod). However, Cruise ainât gonna win nothing if the Academy voters are repelled by the massive roll of the dice of perception that Mexican director Alejandro González Iñárritu (himself no stranger to Oscars glory, having triumphed with both Birdman and The Revenant) takes here.

Yes, Tom Cruise is back with a bang in the Oscars ring in his best performance since 1999’s Magnolia (it’s unbelievable to think it was in another millennium when Cruise last earned an acting nod).

The Odyssey review: Christopher Nolan has made an epic worthy of the gods - AOL (opens the original)
Read excerpt
When the floor of the BFI IMAX quakes and the sound thunders up through the seats and into people’s bodies, it’s no false omen. It’s a pant-shaking signal that for the next three, humdinging hours you’re in for a colossal piece of cinema. Arguments will rage for aeons among Nolanites, but forget Oppenheimer (too biopic-y, not bomb-y enough), Inception or The Dark Knight — this is Christopher Nolan’s most towering achievement yet. And as we open with that mythic Trojan Horse lying beached in mile
