    LAMBScores: Alice Through the Apocalypse of Love & Friendship

    I forgot to mention last week that the very well received Sing Street sent ripples through the LAMBScores table by becoming our highest rated film so far this year! Alas no such luck this week, with some lacklustre sequels and a little-seen period piece not making too much of an impact. Maybe we’ll have better luck next week with Out of the Shadows. Up for review this week: Alice Through The Looking Glass,...

    Lambcast #323 X-Men: Apocalypse

    The X-Men franchise continues this week as we take a look at Bryan Singer’s latest mutant melange, X-Men Apocalypse.

    Jay Cluitt was joined by Kristen Lopez, Dylan Fields, Nicole Ayers and Justin Polizzi to look at why reviews have not been overly favourable, and spend some time dissecting exactly where things might have gone wrong. Is the villain too over the top? Does the story take too long to get going? Or is it the lack...
