clips and trailers: Battleship (2012)

Last updated: 10 April 2012 I have to admit, when I first heard there was going to a movie based on the game of Battleship… I was skeptical. Particularly because the only Battleship games I ever played consisted of taking a piece of paper and pencil, drawing a dotted grid, and shading in squares for [...]

last updated: 28 March 2012 I was thinking and well… I do a lot of looking up new movies and all that kind of thing and I thought, why not write about it? I reckoned the easiest way to organise it was by genre and the genre I probably watch the most is Horror. So… [...]

last updated 23 Mar 12 All hail Gareth Huw Evans and the star of his films, Iko Uwais, for they are the new kings of Action. I’ll have a review of the film up tomorrow so there’s no real point in going on about it too much here. All I’ll say is that The Raid [...]

If you’re looking for an Oscar prediction ballot form for 2012, I have one over here. With the Oscars 2012 only hours away I thought… uh oh. I still haven’t done my predictions post.

This year’s Jameson Dublin International Film Festival is going to be a little different for me. Usually I go along to the surprise film and a couple of other random films, usually Asian ones or any interesting looking documentaries that I think might not get a full cinema release. This year however, I am on [...]

Wild Bill is the directorial debut of actor Dexter Fletcher. You may remember him from such tv shows as Hotel Babylon and Band of Brothers. I don’t… because I’ve never watched those shows… but you might. In any case, Wild Bill is a British family driven drama. Not usually my kind of thing but there [...]

Or rather, they want you to serenade your loved ones… yes. That’s more accurate. I’m sure they’d sing to you if you asked them to though. Well, maybe. Anyway, obviously this is a little different from my usual posts. It’s a sponsored post but then I wouldn’t write about it if I thought it was [...]
