Hello and welcome to the film review on bbc news. To take us through this weeks cinema releases is mark kermode. 50 mark, what do we have this week . We have black panther, which opens on tuesday. We have pad man, based on a true, inspiring story. And 50 shades freed, it all comes to an end. Black panther, why isnt it opening until tuesday . I presume it is because it will give it a long opening weekend. It has been eagerly awaited. At the beginning of the film, it is a technologically advanced society and they must keep their secrets away from the rest of the world in case it falls into the wrong hands. Inevitably, to some extent it does. The movie pays great attention to character and detail. Here is a clip. Remote system activated. Wait, which side of the road is it . Just drive. Lets go look at your suit. You have been taking bullets. Run around the track. Where did he go . show off. That is the most generic stuff. Theres much more interesting stuff in the film. Its strengths are threefold. It looks great. The world of wakanda pro is superbly realised. You really feel that youre in that world and it is well it is a really good cast. But the most important thing is, you believe in the world of the film. You believe in the characters and you know and understand the characters motivation. I am not a huge comic book fan. The thing about this is, it works on its own terms as a stand alone piece. There has been a lot written about the importance of this movie at this moment. But it will only work if the film itself works as a rip roaring piece of entertainment, and it does. It is important, but i can look at that and say, as well documented on this programme, action films are not my thing but they are the thing of my other half. Our debate will be, is it two hours of my life i will never get back and she will say, no, we have to go and see it. You get the spectacle, all the stuff you want and it does look and sound wonderful. But you know the characters, you like them and understand them. This is a world where there are no gender imbalances you often get. Women are on an equal playing field. When they have the big fight sequences, even i understood who everyone was, who they were fighting, why they were fighting and what they were trying to do with their time. As a piece of drama, it is well laid out. I enjoyed it. I might have a hope. I am normally nudging going, what . Who is this person . Why are they doing that . No, i understand it. Ifi if i can understand it, anyone can understand it you give me hope. Pad man. Sounds unusual . It is a man in india who invented a machine for making cheap sanitary pads. Hes credited with breaking beta blue around menstruation. The hears a newlywed young man who doesnt understand why his new bride spends five days every month out of the house. Then he is appalled why the women around him suffer every month. He designs a machine to make low cost sanitary pads, which will not only protect the health of the women but provide employment. But he does so in a culture in which there is a lot of shame around this subject. The director of the film said he wanted to make the story as accessible as possible. He does, it has slapstick comedy, music sequences, laughs, romance and tension. It is a joyful and uplifting film. It is telling the story, which has its roots in a real life story. It is a fictionalised version of a real life story, but it does stick close to the truth. It is charmingly done and playing to the widest possible audience, and succeeding in taking that story and making it completely accessible, and it is charming and uplifting. Another hit. Fantastic, wonderful story. Based on a true story, which is more than can be said for 50 shades freed. We do have twilight to thank for this. The story is, having tamed christian grey, anastasia must see if she can find independence and happiness within their marriage. Here is a clip. You do want to have kids someday . Someday, sure. You dont really sound sure. You know what i am sure about . Thats great steak. Christian. Do you not want to have kids . Of course. One day, just not now. Im not ready to share you with anyone. He doesnt want children. I can tell her that now. There is a narrative. It is easy to sneer at the fifty shades movies because they are not very good. The first one, they tried to do something interesting, but it was too restricted. The second one was directed and it stuck to the ear scraping dialogue of the source. It is badly written, the actors are doing their best. James foley is directing on autopilot. He has been given this as a safe pair of hands. It ends up looking like a promo simply for a glamorous lifestyle for fast cars and designer apartments. Although there is some kinky fetishism, it is very peripheral. What the film is interested in, is look at that private jet. It is a film about possessions and about those kind of aspirations. In the end it ends up looking like a commercial or pop promo. It makes you look back to the days of nine and a half weeks and think wow, what a ground breaking, citizen kane like movie that was. I dont know why people get angry because it is playing to a certain audience who are devoted to it. It will pack the audiences out on the first weekend. I am clearly not the target audience. As a cinema goer, the first one was the only one that was vaguely interesting and the next two arejust dull. Fa ntastically fantastically unremarkable. You cannot criticise the cast. If anybody gave you that dialogue to read, Laurence Olivier would struggle to deliver some of those lines, which are on the level of, is everything all right . Can i get you a latte . Laughter i think i will sleep black panther. Have you seen phantom thread again, the last time we met you had seen it four times. No, i have not seen it again. I lovejohnny greenwoods score. Has been oscar nominated. People say they dont like the central character. You are not meant to like him, he is meant to be difficult. Lesley manville steals the show. I think it is Paul Thomas Andersons best film since punch and they make a cracked romance double bill. I would watch phantom thread again but alongside punch drunk love. There is something about it. There was a debate whether the costumes he designs are deliberately not very good. Everybody says he is a fabulous dress designer but the first thing he designs has somebody dressed up like the queen of hearts. But that is kind of the point, i like it. Its certainly a talking point. The dvd, loving vincent. It reminds me of our conversation last week when i said can you watch blade runner on a dvd, it is the same about loving vincent. It is an extraordinary achievement in technical terms. And oil painted animated movie, as far as i know the worlds first. The narrative is a bit flimsy, it is about going back to find out what happened in Vincent Van Goghs life. I have seen it on the big screen and the small screen and it has the same. It is hypnotising, like watching paintings you know, moving around. Slightly odd, but stunning. If you have it on dvd, you can go back and watch it again and marvelling at the hours of work that must have gone into creating it. Six years of painting to create the film. Astonishing. Thank you. An interesting week. A quick reminder, you can find all the film news and reviews across the bbc on the website. All our previous programmes are on the iplayer as well. Thats it for this week, enjoy your cinema going. Goodbye. Good evening. If youve chosen to be outdoors rather than in watching movies this weekend, a bit of everything in the forecast. To mike frost will be the big issue. I see down in the south east and then a weather front pushing in towards those cold areas. Well see some rain, sleet and snow. The east a bright start with temperatures as low as 6 in parts of england. Up to ten centimetres of snow in the hills of scotland. Turning back to rain as south westerly winds dominate. Through the afternoon Northern Ireland and parts of england and wales seeing outbreaks of rain, some of which are heavy. Ii wales seeing outbreaks of rain, some of which are heavy. 11 degrees in the south and on saturday night the mild air is replaced by cold air. A deepening area of low pressure pushing out towards the east. Into sunday, back to north westerly winds with cold air. Some sleet and snow flurries mounting up to the north and west and a noticeable wind chill. This is bbc world news today. Our top stories.
