Sinners review | Finally, a studio blockbuster that bites

Ryan Coogler’s Sinners delivers a pair of Michael B Jordans, a whole lot of music, and is the best studio genre movie of the year to date. Our review:
As a regular listener to the Kermode & Mayo film podcast, I’m well aware of its ‘six laugh test’ criteria. That is, a film comedy needs to generate half a dozen chuckles at the least to earn its keep.
I have a slight variant on it: the six characters test. I’m increasingly finding with big Hollywood films that I struggle to remember the names of more than two characters by the time I get to the end credits. It might be my failing faculties, but I also think a lot of blockbusters struggle to generate characters who you can remember the day after. James Cameron’s Aliens? I can reel off a bunch of names. James Cameron’s Avatar?...
