There’s a new 50 Shades Darker trailer just been released, to keep us just on the edge until the film itself – the sequel to 2015’s smash hit 50 Shades of Grey – comes out on 10 February 2017. And the best news is… KIM BASINGER IS IN IT! Anyway yes they really are releasing the movie just… Extended 50 Shades Darker Trailer Shows They Can Keep Going For 2 Whole Minutes Read More
An American Werewolf In London 4.5 stars
There is, apparently, a remake planned. I don’t usually mind remakes – the original film still exists, after all. And at least with American Werewolf In London mobile phones haven’t made the plot obsolete (you think I’m kidding? Have you ever tried getting a phone signal up on Britain’s remotest, werewolf-ridden moors?). But if you haven’t seen the… An American Werewolf In London Read More
2017 Movies I Want To See Either Side of John Wick 2
That’s 2017 the year, not the number of movies. And these are the 10+JW2 I’m most looking forward to seeing – don’t let me down, film makers! As I keep pointing out, it costs me a tenner to go to the cinema and that’s before you factor in the drinks afterwards to help me cope with… 2017 Movies I Want To See Either Side of John Wick 2 Read More
2016 – The Year We Didn’t Know If A “Best Of” Film List Was Numerical or Alphabetical
Ah yes, Arrival. Anyway I can assure you this is an in-order, 1st to 10th best, numerical list which by chance happens to be almost… ALMOST, alphabetical. 1. Arrival What “best of” film list this end-of-year won’t have Arrival at the top? Maybe one written by Cillian Murphy. It’s really hard to talk about Arrival without spoiler-ing – so… 2016 – The Year We Didn’t Know If A “Best Of” Film List Was Numerical or Alphabetical Read More
My Worst Films of 2016 But Not Including Gods of Egypt Because It’s Suffered Enough
Luckily for me I love a bad film. Most of these weren’t awful (Home Alone 4 will always be my line-in-the-sand for cinematic awfulness) but they were, in some way, disappointing. And it cost me ten quid to see each one. 1. Batman v Superman – Dawn of Justice BVS sounds like a yeast infection doesn’t it. I’m guessing watching… My Worst Films of 2016 But Not Including Gods of Egypt Because It’s Suffered Enough Read More
OMG John Wick has killed Santa!
He knows when you are sleeping! (as if I’d be asleep). He knows when you’re awake! (hell yes). He knows when you’ve been bad or good (bad John, so very bad). So be good for goodness sake (I’ve been practising!). Come on, this is 2016, WORST YEAR ON RECORD, of course Santa turned out to be… OMG John Wick has killed Santa! Read More
Hunt For The Wilderpeople 4.5 stars
It’s fair to say that films about lost boys looking for a father figure and settling on the least likely candidate aren’t exactly rare. But you’ll be hard pressed to find a more satisfying example of the genre than Hunt for the Wilderpeople. Charming, funny, and moving, it still manages to avoid the cloying sentimentality of many… Hunt For The Wilderpeople Read More
“Drowned In Moonlight, Strangled By My Own Bra” – RIP Carrie Fisher
Carrie Fisher has died aged 60. Lots of people are remembering her as Princess Leia, General Organa, but she was also a hugely influential mental health activist, a successful script doctor and a brilliantly funny and insightful author. Star Wars rather passed me by when it came out, then in the 1980s anything 70s seemed hideously… “Drowned In Moonlight, Strangled By My Own Bra” – RIP Carrie Fisher Read More
Pandemic 3.5 stars
God why are zombies always so MESSY? Streets strewn with debris, rubbish everywhere, sofas and chairs lying in the road, any old how. Tidy people just don’t seem to succumb to these near-constant apocalyptic worldwide infections, do they. They should use this information when creating a vaccine. Or maybe the tidy people are simply stuck… Pandemic Read More
Rare Exports – a Christmas Tale 4.5 stars
Don’t be fooled by the twinkly eyes, round tummy and red suit: “the real Santa was totally different. The Coca Cola Santa was just a hoax” relates little Pietari to his friend, as he explains what he’s discovered about the original Bad Santa. Unnerving, funny, and inventive, Rare Exports combines an off-the-wall premise with… Rare Exports – a Christmas Tale Read More
The Alien: Covenant Trailer Is Here To Save You From Christmas Hell
Mouths dripping with acid. Strange and terrifying creatures seemingly from other planets. Screaming. And NO ESCAPE. Yes it’s Christmas with the family. But don’t worry, as the new Alien: Covenant trailer is finally here! And it’s good! Though pretty much like previous Alien stuff, with lots of running down long industrial looking spaceship corridors, and things bursting… The Alien: Covenant Trailer Is Here To Save You From Christmas Hell Read More
