February 28, 2012 // No Comment

It’s Spy vs. Spy when Chris Pine and Tom Hardy find themselves fighting for the affections of Reese Witherspoon… This Means War. Apparently.

film review: Chronicle (2012)

February 4, 2012 // 5 Comments

There was a plethora of new film releases this week, from a raft of genres, but on paper, this is the one I was most interested in.

film review: Underworld: Awakening (2012)

January 22, 2012 // No Comment

Kate Beckinsale is back in her PVC catsuit, corset and leather jacket for the fourth installment of the Underworld series, Underworld: Awakening. Actually, I didn’t know she had gone, I checked out of this franchise after the first film. Not that I’d hated it or anything. As far as I recall. I think it was […]

film review: Anonymous (2011)

October 26, 2011 // No Comment

I’ve never been a poet. I waffle about films here on this site but I’ve never actually thought about the structure of prose, never mind spared a thought for the rhythm of writing. Like most people I know, I had to read poetry in school but I don’t think I’ve ever read poetry for pleasure. […]

film review: Transformers: Dark of the Moon

July 14, 2011 // 4 Comments

I 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 […]

film review: The Hangover part II (2011)

May 31, 2011 // 6 Comments

It’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 […]

film review: The Crazies (2010)

April 11, 2011 // No Comment

As 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 […]

film review: True Grit (2010)

March 2, 2011 // 14 Comments

This is the first year that I’ve ever seen all the Best Picture nominees before the Oscar ceremony and it’s only occured to me now that I probably should have done reviews for all of them BEFORE they were awarded. I’m really not great at putting 2 and 2 together. Anyway, this means that I […]

film review: The Reef (2010)

January 24, 2011 // No Comment

I’d heard about The Reef… vaguely. I’d heard it was a low budget Australian film about some people who get caught out at sea. It featured in the Horrorthon in the IFI in 2010. However, having not been a big fan of Open Water and being limited by funds, I skipped it… … Then I […]

film review: Get Him to the Greek (2010)

June 28, 2010 // 2 Comments

You’ve heard me talk about it so you’re probably wondering… what did I actually think of it? Here goes. Or maybe first I’ll do the intro. The ads for Get Him to the Greek have been tryin’ to sell it as this year’s The Hangover… It’s probably a fairly apt description. Looking through the slate […]
