With the Jameson Dublin International Film Festival just a couple of days away, it occurs to me that I never wrote that Korean cinema @ JDIFF article I promised in my intro to JDIFF article. Whoops. I’d be lying if I watch a lot of Asian films at the moment, but I used to… When […]
moreIt seems like people have been talking about The Lovely Bones for ages… Well actually they have been. The fact that the Irish release date was moved back twice has not particularly helped with this but with a very staggered worldwide release and the presence of Irish actress, Saoirse Ronan, we really have been hearing […]
moreI guess it’s all about the men this week. My two picks for the week are The Wolfman and A Single Man I love the ol’ horror so The Wolfman first. I may have mentioned in my earlier feature about the original version of The Wolf Man, this new version is really being billed as […]

moreAh the awards season, don’t you love it? I do, it gives me a list of new films I can watch and judge. Today’s list comes from the British Acadamy of Film and Television Arts. I’m gonna throw in a few comments as I go but I’m not a seasoned BAFTA Award watcher by any […]
moreTwo films releasing this week, well actually there’s three films but I’m gonna just talk about the two. The other, Un Prophète, is only opening on 5 screens and they’re all in Dublin so not everyone will have a chance to see it. In case you’re wondering it’s on in Cineworld Parnell Street, IMC Dun […]
