Ramona has flowered

Rating: 6/10 (23 March 2016)

Not knowing anything about this film - and not having seen the film it is supposed to be related to - I was genuinely happy to see the girl Scott Pilgrim quite rightly battled for, Mary Elizabeth Winstead. John Goodman is also exceptional with the world collapsing in his grizzly fizog.
In reality the true relation to this film is the other recent three hander, the much superior Ex Machina. That film kept you wondering till the end, whereas 10 Cloverfield Lane felt like a roll your own adventure, a Frankenstein's monster made of parts you have seen elsewhere. The film satisfies at the time, but holds no memories.
Suffice to say it is a thriller that is both fresh and in no part original.
