Wicked Little Letters review
As well-meaning and sporadically funny as it may be, Wicked Little Letters is too dated and tepid to be anything except forgettable.
Chloe Walker, Paste Magazine, 4th March 2024Boat Story review
Daisy Haggard's hilariously dark drama is worthy of Tarantino or the Coen brothers.

British Comedy Guide, 19th January 2022The Larkins review
I'm sure the 1950s Kent countryside was lovely but I'm willing to bet it wasn't the multicultural liberal utopia as depicted in The Larkins, what with a carousel of Black and Asian characters circling the family. Not a hint of racism in this nostalgic wonderland; I wonder what changed in the subsequent decades?
Stevie Gallacher, The Sunday Post, 21st October 2021The Larkins review
The trouble is, though it rattles along at pace, it keeps veering off the path, like a wonky pram. Some of the dialogue is especially suspect.
