About SSP
Sam Sewell-Peterson
I'm not paid to write about film - I do it because I love it. Favourite filmmakers include Bong Joon-ho, Danny Boyle, the Coen Brothers, Nicolas Winding Refn, Clio Barnard, Steven Spielberg, Guillermo del Toro, Paul Verhoeven, Taika Waititi and Edgar Wright. All reviews and articles are original works written and owned by me. They represent one man's opinion, and I'm more than happy to engage in civilised debate if you disagree.

Review: Doctor Who: The Day of the Doctor (2013)
THE DAY OF THE DOCTOR is everything a 50th anniversary celebration of DOCTOR WHO disserves to be. It not only works as a glowing and affectionate tribute to half a century of an icon of science-fiction, but it’s also a cracking episode … Continue reading
