Strange, strange, strange. I have to admit, I wasn’t expecting to like Red State. I liked the trailer but I’m not particularly a fan of Kevin Smith; I can still smell Cop Out from here… then again, I did really like Zack and Miri Make a Porno and I thought Chasing Amy was kind of […]
moreTinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy… Those of you who know me will know, I’m not exactly a reader… but even I’ve heard of John le Carré’s Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy. I couldn’t tell you why though, just that – in my head – it’s an extremely famous and highly acclaimed spy novel. With a class title. […]
moreI am a fan of the Transformers films. I even liked the second one. Yes, it’s true, and I know I’ve lost some of you already… but you know what? I just like seeing giant robots beating each other up on a huge screen. So sue me. Ok. Possibly, I may have given Revenge of […]
moreIt’s been so long since I’d written anything here I had to wonder if I was actually going to remember the password. Turns out I did. All is not lost folks, I am back to give you my many apparently unpopular (if my recent stints on Cinerama have taught me anything) opinions. I’ve decided to […]
moreYou know. I enjoy a lot of films. I rarely slate a film. I know I wasn’t particularly nice about Scre4m last week but I didn’t slate it. It was alright. I think a lot films are all right and I tend to give a lot middling ratings as a result. If I really think […]
moreHave you ever watched a film and thought; I’ve seen this all before? Have you ever watched a film which tells you; You’ve seen this all before? Have you ever watched a film which tells you; You’ve seen this all before, in the films that came before this one in the series? Does that sound […]
moreAs you may or may not have noticed, I have been injected with a spurt of effort for the website lately. The new Clips and trailers section of the website seems to be taking shape and I’ve even managed to write some reviews lately. Unfortunately the “Releasing this week” segment has fallen by the wayside […]
moreYou remember when I said the trailer for Sucker Punch had everything but the kitchen sink in it? Yeah. Turns out the kitchen sink was sense. This was not as phenomenal a mess as The Spirit but it did have a few extra touches of outlandishness that only Zack Snyder is brave enough to throw […]
moreIf you haven’t heard of A Serbian Film by now then… you probably don’t want to. Just, you know, go and look at another review. Might I suggest this one perhaps? Ok, ok, I’ll tell you what it is. A Serbian Film is probably the most notorious film you’ve never heard of. Well actually, you […]
moreI have to admit, up until I saw the trailer in the cinema a week and a half ago, I thought The Lincoln Lawyer had something to do with Abraham Lincoln. I think I was getting it mixed up with Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter. Obviously enough, the trailer corrected that misconception… What can I say, […]
