review: Star Trek (2009)

I saw this about a week an half before it came out… What would have been useful for people would have been if I reviewed it then. Unfortunately I’m pretty lazy… but at least you’re getting it eventually, right?? On with the show. This Star Trek is actually the 11th film in the franchise, this [...]

review: Friday the 13th (2009)

I don’t know if this film, imaginatively titled Friday the 13th, is meant to be a “reboot” of the franchise or what, but I can tell you this. It’s the worst Friday the 13th film that I’ve seen. I’m gonna dispense with my no spoilers rule for once. This movie deserves to be spoiled, anything [...]

review: Watchmen (2009)

I’ve been disgracefully lax of late. I’ve actually seen quite a few new films in the weeks since I reviewed My Bloody Valentine 3D. Well, new to me anyway. In case you’re interested they were… The Wrestler, Frost/Nixon, Confessions of a Shopaholic, The Notebook, The Devil Wears Prada, Bolt 3D, Anvil! The Story of Anvil [...]

review: My Bloody Valentine 3D (2009)

Contrary to popular belief, not all slasher flicks are the same. Ok, the formula tends the same in all of them – take a group of youngsters, add one homicidal maniac and watch the blood fly all over the place – but that doesn’t mean they’re all the same. Ok, there’s lots of bad ones… [...]

review: Body of Lies (2008)

I was pleasantly surprised by Body of Lies. I really didn’t expect to like it, it’s just not my kind of film. I think I’ve mentioned before in the blog (actually just had a look and it was in the No Country For Old Men) – I like films that have to be a film. [...]

review: Scar 3D (2008)

Actually I think Scar was released in 2007 but this was the 3D version that was re-released into cinemas in 2008. Though… I have no idea if the original “flat” version of Scar was ever released in cinemas here… I hope not. As far as I can make out, Scar is not a good film. [...]

review: Saw V (2008)

Another year, another Saw film. It’s all good. Saw IV was in my top 5 for last year so I was really looking forward to this next installment in the franchise. Saw V is the um… fifth film in the Saw series and I, for one, am glad that they didn’t bother with all that [...]

review: Cloverfield (2008)

From the team that brought you Felicity, Cloverfield is a heart-warming tale of a man searching for a love that he had tried to deny. Kind of. Mostly it’s about a monster attacking Manhattan. Cloverfield is really the first big “event” film of 2008. The buzz around the trailer when it was first shown before [...]

feature: The 5 Best And The Absolute Worst Of 2007.

I haven’t really seen any movies lately as I’ve been pretty busy with work and everything and I’ve trying to develop a quick rate graphic but it’s not going well… However, it’s been a while since I’ve posted so I thought I should write something, thanks to Auri for the suggestion! Without further ado and [...]
