Keanu 3.5 stars
Holy shit! A film called Keanu with loads of John Wick references and a cameo from THAT Keanu got me so hot under the collar that the only thing that could calm me down right now is a cool breeze over the mountains.

John Wick Chapter 2 Trailer Goes 50 Shades Darker: “Will Somebody Please Give That Man My Number!”
The new John Wick Chapter 2 trailer is brilliant, though it looks pretty standard action for Valentine’s Day to me. I am hard as nails though. The sequel to the Keanu Reeves slow-burner from 2014 is out in a few days and I can think of far worse ways to spend Valentine’s Day than at the cinema… John Wick Chapter 2 Trailer Goes 50 Shades Darker: “Will Somebody Please Give That Man My Number!” Read More
Best WTF Movie Moments
I can honestly say I have NEVER had so many imaginary exclamation marks whizzing round in my head since I started reviewing films. I LOVE wtf? moments in movies though. Clunky, major plot hole-causing, or simply unexplained and then never spoken of again, they may be caused by simple errors, bad editing, or just someone a bit dim… Best WTF Movie Moments Read More

Films Adaptations That Are Nothing Like The Book – Part 1
I’ve been reading Baba Yaga. It’s a great story but it’s nothing like the film version. (See all the trailers for John Wick: Chapter 2 here)
I’ve Found The Perfect Free Gift For John Wick’s Favourite Magazine
There’s a glossy-yet-shadowy magazine for assassins coming out this month, and I really hope that a pencil is the free gift with the first issue. (A decent quality pencil, tested to ensure each one can kill three people in a bar before breaking*). The new magazine is called Continental Quarterly and is the in-house publication of… I’ve Found The Perfect Free Gift For John Wick’s Favourite Magazine 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).

Another day, another John Wick Chapter 2 trailer
John Wick is BACK!!! And just in time to ruin your Christmas party. John Wick trailers are like buses, none for ages then about three in a row (well, strictly speaking, looking at Wick’s mashed up face in the latest one, they’re like night buses going through a really dodgy part of Sarf London). See the 58th… Another day, another John Wick Chapter 2 trailer Read More
