Zola (2020)
An Incoherent mess
Supposedly based on real life events and cobbled together from over a hundred "tweets" , this 'strippers in trouble cum road movie ' is nothing more than an ill conceived , incoherent mess.
From its pseudo-flashy styling - which ALREADY looks dated , slack direction right through to the wafer thin , pointless excuse of a script. The characters are completely unlikeable throughout with absolutely no redeeming features whatsoever. The performances - with the possible exception of Taylour Paige who does at least attempt some semblence of emotion - are one dimensional and massively annoying throughout.
Do yourself a favour and give this utter drivel a VERY wide berth.
We the Kings (2018)
Underwhelming
I was very keen to see this slice of "Orpington Noir" , following its positive reviews on here and other media but , despite nicely claustrophobic photography & fine performances by Timothy West and , particularly , Amanda Abbington as a detestable care worker, I found the script disjointed and distinctly overwrought - given its allegedly realistic format. The time frame and age of Timothy West's character was also a fair way away from being remotely plausible. A shame but I have to say that I found it underwhelming and disappointing for me and certainly not something I would want to see again or recommend to anyone, sadly.
