Irish Wish (2024) 41% EDIT “Irish Wish is an excellent advertisement for a variety of Irish touchstones. But, as a film, it’s as dumb as a box of rocks.” – The Times (UK) Mar 18, 2024 Full Review Million Dollar Pigeons (2022) 83% EDIT “Ordinarily, gaps in a story and lurches of this magnitude would be fatal, but the saving grace of Million Dollar Pigeons was its consistently good-value cast of contributors.” – The Times (UK) Jul 31, 2023 Full Review Cumar - A Galway Rhapsody (2019) EDIT “A lyrical but occasionally barbed hymn to the western city's reputation as a hothouse for artistic endeavour.” – The Times (UK) Sep 24, 2020 Full Review Abbeyfealegood (2019) EDIT “An elegantly crafted portrait of an impeccably groomed bailiwick where getting your hair done has become the signature means of letting your hair down.” – Sunday Times (UK) Jun 10, 2020 Full Review Elizabeth is Missing (2019) 93% EDIT “The sensitivity and intelligence lavished on the set-up was squandered by a third act that was overloaded with fanciful heroics and wishful thinking.” – The Times (UK) Dec 16, 2019 Full Review EDIT “Like a candle in the wind, Elton John: Uncensored was a spectacularly ineffectual effort at illumination.” – The Times (UK) Dec 5, 2019 Full Review EDIT “Plain-spoken wit and wisdom abounded throughout Seamus Heaney and the Music of What Happens, a cleverly constructed and consistently absorbing profile of the late Nobel laureate.” – The Times (UK) Dec 2, 2019 Full Review EDIT “Presented by Joe Duffy, with investigative assistance from Derry-based reporter Freya McClements, the documentary was dignified yet hard-hitting.” – The Times (UK) Nov 19, 2019 Full Review EDIT “[Mark] Cousins is an astute commentator but his TV essays are an acquired taste, due to his mannered delivery and pretentious weakness for fancy-pants French phrases. Here, however, his affectations were kept in check.” – The Times (UK) Oct 8, 2019 Full Review EDIT “Smart satire is supposed to sting and singe its targets, not tickle them pink.” – The Times (UK) Oct 8, 2019 Full Review Keepers of the Flame (2018) EDIT “Clear-sighted coherence is the key to incisive documentary-making, and Keepers of the Flame burnt itself out in a blur of overambition and confused purpose.” – The Times (UK) Aug 26, 2019 Full Review The Day Mountbatten Died (2019) 100% EDIT “It was the contemporary interviews with the individuals who have lived longest with the consequences of that day that distinguished the film, elevating it from a historical account to something more relevant and resonant.” – The Times (UK) Aug 26, 2019 Full Review EDIT “Despite the richness and complexity of the central narrative, the programme degenerated into a high-end promo for the golf tourist trade. Some links to the past are impossible to break.” – The Times (UK) Jul 1, 2019 Full Review
