film review: Burlesque (2010)

No Comment

With snowmageddon going on here, it’s hard to think about going outside at all, let alone going out to go to the cinema. But then that’s just what I did today. Not to this though. I went to this weeks ago. Today I went to Catfish. But that’s not important right now. Wikipedia (today, 21st […]

film review: Paranormal Activity 2 (2010)

1 Comment

You may wonder why, after how little I thought of Paranormal Activity, I decided to see Paranormal Activity 2… Let’s just accept that I did and get on with the review. It was a beautiful sunny afternoon in Dublin when I pegged it down from The Barge to Movies@Dundrum to catch a half empty screening […]

film review: The Kids Are All Right (2010)

No Comment

A week or two ago I tweeted an interesting article from Awards Daily discussing some of the early contenders in the Oscar race for Best Lead Actress. Thankfully it looks like this year is going to be a much better year for women than last year and one of the movies that’s providing a lot […]

film review: The Human Centipede (First Sequence) (2009)

3 Comments

So the other day I mentioned on my own facebook that I was going to take a stab at watching The Human Centipede. Or to give it its full title, The Human Centipede (First Sequence)… apparently the writer/director, Tom Six has plans for a follow up. Anyway, a couple of people asked me to let […]

film review: Piranha 3D (2010)

Bouncing boobs and buckets of blood… … that’s right, Piranha 3D is most definitely, and unashamedly… … a B movie. Then again, what were you expecting from a film about prehistoric killer fish? Truth be told, there isn’t much to be said about Piranha 3D. It’s pretty much exactly what they promised. Between the fake […]

film review: Splice (2010)

No Comment

It’s been a while since I wrote a review. I feel bad about this. I’m sure you’ve missed my endless waffling about topics wholly irrelevant to the films in question. Never fear though! I’m back… Splice was one of those films that sounded interesting enough to take note of but not interesting enough to actually […]

film review: His & Hers (2010)

No Comment

I had to think about this one. Well, I think about all my reviews – words don’t appear on the screen by themselves* – but usually it’s less about what I’m going to say and more about how I’m going to say it. This film had me thinking about… stuff. Ah ok, there’s no point […]

film review: Get Him to the Greek (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 […]
