Six films out this week and I’m gonna be highlighting two very different ones – MacGruber, a big screen spin-off of the popular US comedy sketch show, Saturday Night Live and Irish documentary His & Hers. I’ve never actually seen Saturday Night Live, I’ve heard a lot about it and I’ve seen the “cowbell” sketch […]
moreUnfortunately it’s one of those weeks where there isn’t much new stuff coming to the cinemas. There’s only four films this week and to be perfectly honest, none of them look particularly fantastic. I’ve seen one of them. It’s really not fantastic. I settled on Brooklyn’s Finest and Letters to Juliet. They’ll have to do […]
moreIt was with surprising lack of trepidation that I wandered into Cineworld on Monday 7th June for the one night only showing of the new Rush documentary, Rush: Beyond The Lighted Stage. As we passed the bar I couldn’t help but notice it was awash with stringy ponytails and tour t-shirts. Not quite the usual […]
moreJust think of this as not as late as last weeks one. This week I am highlighting two pretty different films –She Out Of My League, which I’ve seen, and The Killer Inside Me, which I haven’t. I kinda want to highlight The Brothers Bloom too… I might just write a bit more than usual […]
moreBack in 2008 a little comedy called Forgetting Sarah Marshall, from first time director Nicholas Stoller caused quite a stir. It was romantic comedy that actually delivered laughs. Many of those laughs came from Aldous Snow, the narcissistic English rock star played by Russell Brand)… So many in fact, that they decided to make a […]
moreCOMPETITION CLOSED I mentioned this in the review of A Nightmare on Elm Street but I thought I’d better actually get the box set before trying to give it away. I have it now so… without further ado…. It’s competition time! To make the passing of the Krueger torch… err… maybe not torch… let’s say […]
moreThere’s a couple of big films coming out this week… one which I will talk about and one that I don’t really want to talk about. So I won’t. The films I AM going to talk about are…. Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time and Cop Out. I’ll deal with Prince of Persia first […]
moreI can’t say I was overly excited about a film based on a video game. Uwe Boll has made me wary… If you haven’t had the delight of watching a Uwe Boll video game adaptation I’d recommend Alone in the Dark… it truly is awful. Seriously. It’s terrible. So, I wasn’t sure if I was […]
moreAs I’m sure you’ve noticed, I’m only highlighting one film this week. It’s not that I particularly think that Robin Hood is going to be so amazing that it’s worthy of being out there on it’s own… It’s really just that this is a blog focussing on the average films that everyone will have a […]
moreAs I’m sure many of you will have noticed by now. I’m a pretty big fan of horror films. Course, more often than not, being a horror fan involves watching a lot of terrible horror films. And, more often than not, those terrible films are sequels or remakes. It was with this in mind that […]
