Director Jason Reitman, writer Diablo Cody and star Charlize Theron reteam after their semi-successful 2009 drama Young Adult, with another dramatic tale concerning the trials and tribulations of family and motherhood in that of Tully. A film that suffers from a final ten-minute reel that just about derails the interconnected tissue of events leading up to it. A similar issue, depending on one’s opinion that plagued and only affected the final product and initial entertainment of both 10 Cloverfield Lane and Split. Not completely cauterising the first two acts containing a heart wrenching and honest depiction of loneliness within motherhood, but drastically reducing them to a mere juvenile and condescending rebuttal on every single re-watch for all...

As that massive galactic battle between hordes of heroes and a nearly unstoppable still rages after obliterating box office records last weekend, a new smaller film concerning a more down-to-Earth, but still desperate struggle. will be occupying some of the non Imax 3D theatre spaces at the multiplex, along with certain “art-house” cinemas. While the former flick is a big uniting of several action/fantasy franchises, this new film is a uniting, or rather a re-uniting of some very creative, almost superheroic talents. In 2007 the “dynamic duo” of screenwriter Diablo Cody and director Jason Reitman scored a critical and box office hit with a tale of teen pregnancy, Juno (Cody nabbed a well-deserved Best Original Screenplay Oscar for it). The duo became a titanic trio four years later when Charlize Theron starred in their darkly comic tale of thwarted high school reunion romance, Young Adult. Though that film has many...

There are some filmmaking teams that just seem to bring out the best in each other. In terms of writers who pair with directors, few have the winning bond that scribe Diablo Cody has with auteur Jason Reitman. Between Juno and Young Adult, the pair have crafted some truly memorable cinema. This week, the duo team up again for Tully, which also marks their second union with star Charlize Theron (after the aforementioned Young Adult). This dramedy is a whole new type of flick for the trio, which is a definite compliment. All three have done tremendous work in the past, and this stands right up there with the best of it. In fact, few films in 2018 have been this good. The film is described on IMDb as such: “The film is about Marlo, a mother of three including a newborn, who is gifted a night nanny by her brother.
