The latest Harry Styles vehicle My Policeman recently released on Prime Video and Streaming Wars host Colin Chisholm tries his hardest to be polite while saying ‘don’t quit your day job’ to the global superstar.
Styles plays Tom, a policeman in 1950s England who falls in love with a museum curator at a time when homosexuals were heavily persecuted.
Much of the story is told through flashback and there’s some good ingredients here, but Styles’ portrayal of the character feels out of place in an otherwise perfectly competent film.
