film review: Sherlock Holmes (2009)

3 Comments

Apparently there have been many many many screen incarnations of Sherlock Holmes…. I haven’t seen any of them though. I actually know pretty much nothing about Sherlock Holmes beyond the fact that he’s a detective, he’s got a friend called Watson and he lives at 221B Baker’s Street. That last one was courtesy of a […]

film review: 2012 (2009)

I haven’t actually seen many Roland Emmerich movies… well ok, looking through his IMDb I’ve seen Stargate, Independence Day and 10,000BC but I didn’t know he did Stargate so… anyway… The point is I haven’t seen The Day After Tomorrow. Though, I’ve seen bits of here and there and it looks an awful lot like […]

There’s only really two directors that I would say I’m a big fan of, Michel Gondry and Wes Anderson, in case you were wondering… but I do admire the films of Quentin Tarantino. They’re always so stylish, so cool. I met him briefly once at a signing in HMV Dublin and he was just as […]

film review: Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (2009)

Just to be clear about things. I loved Transformers. I know there are people who didn’t like the first one, to those people I say… don’t bother watching this one. If, like me, you thought that the first film was the most fun you’ve had in the cinema in years, then read on. Transformers: Revenge […]

I saw this about a week an half before it came out… What would have been useful for people would have been if I reviewed it then. Unfortunately I’m pretty lazy… but at least you’re getting it eventually, right?? On with the show.

review: The Spirit (2008)

No Comment

I’d never really heard of The Spirit (the film or the comics) until I started seeing the tv ads about a week before it came out… I like the visual style and I’m interested in films of comic book stories but mostly what swung it was that it had Samuel L. Jackson in it. I’ll […]

review: Quantum of Solace (2008)

In case you were wondering about the… odd title. Quantum of Solace takes it’s name from the title of a short story from a collection of James Bond stories called For Your Eyes Only written by Ian Fleming. So now you know. We’ll start at the start. It was great to see the familiar style […]

review: Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull (2008)

In a fit of honesty I’m going to admit it… I don’t really remember much of the old Indiana Jones films. I think Indiana Jones is cool but honestly, I really don’t remember what happens in any of the films and I never really watch them when they’re on TV. There, I said it, I’m […]

My my, I have been lax lately, I really need to write more reviews… it’s not like I haven’t seen any films lately… it’s just that I haven’t had a chance to write any reviews… Anyway so… I saw Iron Man the other day. You may have heard of it, it’s directed by the multi-talented […]
