On the outskirts of a village by the sea, lives a Fisherwoman; smelly, single and perpetually ridiculed.

3.5/4

Alex Huston Fischer and Eleanor Wilson’s ribald fable casts a comedic spell as it leads to a Satisfying finale. You’ll have a good time with this one.

3.5/4

Quite like her Oscar-winning performance in “The Favorite,” Colman, who’s never afraid to act ridiculous, is untethered and batty until things get real. Or, as real as things can get when one’s hubby is an oversize vessel for potpurri.

2/5

Ultimately, there’s too much here that doesn’t gel, a tonally uneven mix of mostly unfunny bawdy humour, dark fantasy and unlikely romance, too much wood but not enough fire.

Aug 8

Shot in curling mists and the rustling flicker of dappled sunlight through leaves by The Brutalist cinematographer Lol Crawley, Wicker’s lushly drawn world is all the more remarkable for it being Wilson and Fischer’s sophomore feature.

The problem isn’t just that ‘Wicker’ lacks ideas, but that it treats folklore more as decoration. Beneath the wicker and straw, the film is missing something essential, a beating heart.

In many ways, Wicker feels like medieval Edward Scissorhands, with every frame bursting to life with artistic brilliance.
