Couple to look out for this week, Edge of Darkness and Precious: Based on the Novel Push by Sapphire. Precious is really the one I’m looking forward to but unfortunately it’s only releasing on 4 screens in Ireland so it may be difficult for people to get to see it. Edge of Darkness on the […]

film review: Nowhere Boy (2009)

No Comment

Saw this a few weeks ago and since it got a few BAFTA nominations the other day I thought I’d better get my act together and do the review. Hey maybe it’ll convince someone to go and see it, after all it only seems to have 424 ratings on IMDb… Nowhere Boy is a biopic […]

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 […]

And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. REVELATIONS 6:8 I was looking forward to The Road. As I mentioned in some previous posts, I’m all about post-apocalyse movies.

film review: Sherlock Holmes (2009)

Apparently there have been many many many screen incarnations of Sherlock Holmes…. I haven’t seen any of them though. I actually know pretty much nothing about Sherlock Holmes beyond the fact that he’s a detective, he’s got a friend called Watson and he lives at 221B Baker’s Street. That last one was courtesy of a […]

There is only one film worth seeing in the cinema this week. Avatar. Well, if we are to believe the hype anyway. Personally, I had been rather apprehensive about this whole Avatar business. I can’t remember the last time a film promised so much (well… maybe Snakes on a Plane but that was really a […]

I haven’t actually seen many Roland Emmerich movies… well ok, looking through his IMDb I’ve seen Stargate, Independence Day and 10,000BC but I didn’t know he did Stargate so… anyway… The point is I haven’t seen The Day After Tomorrow.
