From the start of his filmmaking career, Ridley Scott has been fascinated by the beginning and the end; themes of birth and death, sex and bloodshed, god and man. Bitter children meeting their makers. Creation myth. It’s in Alien, it’s definitely in Blade Runner, and with Prometheus, the essential sci-fi director took his philosophical musings to the next level, expanding and explaining his world of extraterrestrial creature and creations with the divisive Alien prequel no one expected. In Alien: Covenant, Scott finds himself stuck between two constructs — the action-horror beats of an Alien film, and the weighty, ponderous themes of a Prometheus movie — and by indulging both, he never fully satisfies either. The result is a messy film that is at turns, exquisite and infuriating.

Last night, I had the absolute pleasure of attending the premiere of Bad Boys 4: Ride or Die with my ride-or-die best mates, and let me tell you, it was one of the most fun cinema experiences of the year! From the quality of the movie to the electrifying vibe of the cinema, everything about the night was extraordinary. The communal laughter, the spontaneous shouting at the screen—it was an experience that almost rivalled having an entire cinema to myself.
