This thriller 'from the world of John Wick' has been a long time in the making: over three years since its leading lady was announced and eight since the script was first optioned following reshoots and reports that franchise creator Chad Stahelski took an active hand alongside director Len Wiseman. Happily, it emerges at last with enough inventive action to stand alongside its murderous predecessors, and makes Ana de Armas into a likeable assassin hero – a phrase that makes more sense in her killer-filled world than our own. She plays Eve, a girl orphaned by Gabriel Byrne's Chancellor. She is raised under the care of Anjelica Huston's director at a ballet school-stroke-assassin training academy, learning arts both delicate and deadly. But Eve never planned to simply make her living punching people's tickets: she has vengeance in mind. So far, so standard revenge plot: a nice twist here is that when her desire threatens all-out war between her tribe and the Chancellor's, Keanu Reeves' John Wick is pressed into action to stop her. There's a bit of business with Norman Reedus, as a defector from the Chancellor's cult, and Catalina Sandino Moreno as a rival assassin, but that's largely beside the point. Any Wick-adjacent film comes with the expectation that extreme violence will be dispensed and kill shots administered with abandon, and there this film eventually delivers. After a faltering first mission, Eve gets the hang of things, as demonstrated wittily via the bloody aftermath of a killing spree a few months later. You don't see enough flamethrower duels these days But it's when she finds a clue about her past and sets off on her own hunt that the film comes to life. You don't see enough flamethrower duels these days, and there are pleasingly inventive scenes, with smashed plates in a restaurant kitchen and grenades used as close-quarter weapons, that make up for the by-the-numbers plotting. If it's not quite as visually distinct as the neon-soaked Wick movies, it's close enough thanks to some nifty red smoke bombs, deployed early on, and all that fire. It helps that de Armas, like Reeves, makes a convincing ass-kicker: not invincible and prone to error, as befits a beginner, but formidable when she sets her sights on a target. Where Wick is reluctantly returning to the fray, wounded by loss and grief, she's all eagerness and rash enthusiasm, and must learn restraint. Well, some restraint. There are still flamethrowers to be fired up, after all, and idyllic mountain villages entirely peopled with murderers to be cleared out. This is a John Wick spinoff, after all.

Period drama fans have just days to watch 'emotional' film before it's axed

The British biographical drama film stars Felicity Jones, Kristin Scott Thomas, and Tom Hollander A highly praised period drama directed by and featuring Ralph Fiennes is ready to depart from BBC iPlayer soon. The biographic film, The Invisible Woman (2013), is set in the Victorian era and centres around an important cultural figure. ‌ Adapted from a 1990 novel bearing the same title, it unfolds the tale of Charles Dickens's clandestine affair with Nelly Ternan, played out over 13 years with a budding young actress. ‌ Haunted by memories, an older Nelly, now a teacher and a wife, grapples with her concealed past involving the illustrious author, as flashbacks unravel their complex connection. The movie delves into Charles Dickens's mental landscape, the societal dilemmas presented by their relationship, and Nelly's trials following their separation. It provides insight into the difficulties faced by someone entangled with a renowned personality through the lens of Nelly, as the drama investigates themes of love, individuality, and the ramifications of keeping secrets, reports the Express. Regarding his dual role as actor and director for the piece, Fiennes confessed his initial unfamiliarity with Charles Dickens' body of work to Vulture, stating: "I was ignorant. "I had only read Little Dorrit. I knew his obvious ones - Nicholas Nickleby, Oliver Twist, Great Expectations - through adaptations. And Christmas Carol. I didn't know much about the man." ‌ Nevertheless, Fiennes's portrayal earned widespread acclaim, with many reviews commending his and Felicity Jones's acting prowess. The film has garnered a positive consensus on Rotten Tomatoes, where it boasts a rating of 76%, reflecting the viewers' commendations. Critics have praised the film, with one saying: "This is everything a period drama almost never is: underplayed, witty, poignant and, above all, real". Another reviewer simply put: "Beautiful to watch. Acting perfect. Based on truth". ‌ Other viewers have also shared their thoughts, with one commenting: "This is a slow and emotional watch, ideal for fans of period drama. I found it quite engrossing and intriguing to get to know Charles' love interest at the time its set." The cast's performances have also been commended, with one viewer noting: "The cast do well giving good performances and the dialogue was quite thoughtful at times, although at other times it's more a case of what isn't said, than what is. "And indeed I enjoyed the dialogue-free scenes as they had an almost dream-like quality to them and allowed the viewer to contemplate what the characters on screen may be thinking." Upon its release in 2013, The Invisible Woman was not only well-received by critics but also achieved box office success, grossing £2,380,130.78 worldwide. The Invisible Woman (2013) will no longer be available on BBC iPlayer after June 7.

Miley Cyrus takes cheeky swipe at ex-husband Liam Hemsworth after bitter divorce

Miley Cyrus took a cheeky swipe at her ex-husband Liam Hemsworth during a fan interaction this week. The Climb hitmaker, 32, was married to the Australian actor, 35, from 2018 to 2020, but things ended abrupty 10 years into their relationship. In 2023 Miley burst back onto the scene with her fist-pumping, Grammy Award-winning Flowers, which included heavy nods to Liam and celebrated single life. Now, a fan has taken to social media with an amusing story about meeting Miley at a recent album signing. Posting a photo of Miley's scrawl on a vinyl of her album Something Beautiful, which dropped on May 30, X user Liam explained: 'Miley writing 'the best Liam' on my vinyl.' Taking this as a nod to her ex-husband, many fans said on how 'real' the Angels Like You hitmaker is for comment. 'Lol she's so real for that,' said @Pstigger, while @anth0nvy said: 'I love this woman so much.' 'This is HILARIOUS,' commented @1975XO, as @anabiebsmiler wrote: 'HAHAHAHA WHAT AN ICON.' Fans were shocked when Liam and Miley announced their split in August 2019, just seven months after tying the knot. Both have moved on since in relationships kept largely out of the public eye, as Miley has been with Lilly drummer Maxx Morando since 2021, while Hemsworth has been seeing model Gabriella Brooks for even longer. 'Everyone close to Miley says Maxx brings out the best in her,' a source told US weekly of their relationship recently. 'They work very well as a team,' the source shared. 'Maxx shares the same passion for music, and he's one of Miley's biggest cheerleaders.' In August 2019, Cyrus shared a series of posts on X, formerly known as Twitter, where she explained why she and the Hunger Games actor ended their relationship. 'Liam and I have been together for a decade,' she wrote. 'I've said it before & it remains true, I love Liam and always will. BUT at this point I had to make a healthy decision for myself to leave a previous life behind. 'I am the healthiest and happiest I have been in a long time. You can say I am a twerking, pot smoking, foul-mouthed hillbilly but I am not a liar. I am proud to say, I am simply in a different place from where I was when I was younger.' Meanwhile, Liam wrote: 'Hi all. Just a quick note to say that Miley and I have recently separated and I wish her nothing but health and happiness going forward.' To view this video please enable JavaScript, and consider upgrading to a web browser that supports HTML5 video Having previously attributed the untangling of her relationship with Liam to her Malibu house burning down in November 2018, just a month before their wedding, Miley recently reflected on this time again. 'When my house burned down, that was the biggest blessing I've ever had in my life, actually,' the star said during a Q&A at her Something Beautiful event earlier this month, according to People. 'Losing everything and being able to rebuild, and to be able to be purposeful and choose every piece that I'm gonna collect or also just about the people in my life. 'And I guess for me, when my house burned down, a lot of my relationships also burned down, and that again just led me to such magic and to have so much gratitude.' Got a story?
