Silent Night review – John Woo’s US comeback is a minor exercise | Action and adventure films

It’s been 20 years since John Woo last made an American film – the muddled sci-fi thriller Paycheck – and while he’s been absent as a director, his influence has been ever present. Directors David Letich and Chad Stahelski, whose films Bullet Train and John Wick respectively owe a heavy debt to Woo’s sleek operatic style, even keep a picture of him in their joint office. So in what’s become a boom financial period for the action movie (the Wick movies have amassed over $1bn in total), it makes sense that Woo, commonly…

Wish review: Disney celebrates itself in this sweet, minor animated musical

Get our free weekly email for all the latest cinematic news from our film critic Clarisse LoughreyGet our The Life Cinematic email for freeIt’s a small tragedy that Disney’s centenary happened to coincide with a moment of internal crisis for the studio, in which its empire of intellectual property has been stretched so thin it’s on the verge of total collapse (for a cautionary tale about what happens to overzealous conquerors, see Ridley Scott’s Napoleon). We’ve been told this is a year of celebration for Disney, except…
