Movie Matinee Madness - Unsane


Unsane is pretty much as original as new movies come, in a world full of Avengers having almost every session at every cinema, we look to new and interesting ideas, Unsane is nothing 100% new, but at least there are no Hulks or magic hammers insight, or is there?

The film stars Claire Foy, our Queen from Netflix's hit series The Crown and Jay Pharoah from Showtime's not so hit series White Famous.

Even Matt Damon makes a little guest appearance and Juno Temple plays a fantastic supporting role as Violet.



Claire Foy is outstanding in this very different role and in Australia with a release against the titanic Avengers movie, this film id need some star power.

I am no Marvel hater, I see all the films and watch a few (or all) the series however I love films like this that bring us something new. In this case Steven Soderbergh shot the entire film on an iPhone 7. Amazing right, a good plug for Apple too, apparently they have a product release soon, good timing right?

I'm keeping this short, this was a fun ride, a tense ride and the ending leaves you still guessing. Not really a spoiler alert.

I am happy to conclude my three movie run with this different and interesting picture, will more phones save on production costs and be shot on HD iPhones? Who knows but this is a 3.5 Star film, easy. Good stuff and great to see Claire Foy less royal and more raw, YASS Queen, sorry couldn't resist.
