It's fascinating to watch Yeo tumble down into the depths, but eventually it starts to feel as though he'll never hit the bottom.

Rated: B

Ready Steady Cut

Film noir on the surface, worldly-wise social commentary underneath, this is an excellent arthouse addition to Netflix's international catalog.

Rated: 4/5

Lousy editing that leaves endless stretches of meaningless footage that doesn't add to the story. I'd rather watch paint dry, flake, fall off, and decompose into tiny little particles.

Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars
