Rating-Matinee'     Now this movie might sound like the stupidest movie in the world when you hear its story: Abraham Lincoln basically grabs an axe and decides to go out and kill vampires. But believe me when I say that once you get past its stupid premise, the movie becomes so much fun.…

Where do I begin with this one? For months, I have been anticipating this movie’s release; not because I thought it’d be good, but because I wanted to see how bad it was. Every time this film came up in conversation, I lambasted it to death. A film based on a board game that has…

After years of development, HERGE's classic comic book series has finally made it to the big screen. And I'm happy to tell you that it is one of the best films of the year.

 

The basic story is as follows: a young reporter Tintin (JAMIE BELL) comes across a model ship at a market and, after…

TINKER TAILOR SOLDIER SPY is one of the best films of the year so far, and could easily get a nod at the Oscars in February. With an interesting plot, brilliant performances and great production values, it stands as the best spy thriller of the year.

 

The basic plot is this: George Smiley (GARY…

A montage of all the movies I have seen or will see this summer, set to the awesomeness of Led Zeppelin. Enjoy!

 

The next great alien invasion is occurring, and who is there to stop them? A bunch of South London teenagers armed with fireworks and blunt instruments. This is ATTACK THE BLOCK, the best British horror-comedy since SHAUN OF THE DEAD.

 

As said above, the basic premise is meteors contain aliens that…

At long last, the Mighty Thor has come to the big screen and, since the film has arrived early here in the UK, I have seen it. But can it match the quality of the previous Marvel Cinematic Universe movies?

 

In short, yes. In long... well, just read the rest of the review. I don't want to talk to much about the plot, but it's your basic fish-out-of-water story by a lot of betrayal and action thrown in. It flows well and makes sense, but suffers the same problem the Iron Man…

Eclipse can best be described as a dumb romantic epic. I use the word "dumb" to say that the

film isn't very clever. While an improvement over the atrociously bad New Moon, Eclipse still suffers

from a mundane plot, unlikeable characters, and the acting can only be

described as lifeless and wooden (not to insult wood at all). At a

glance the story seems more competent and more straight forward than New Moon but if you look

into it a bit further you will see exactly how… Continue

A double bill for you this weekend to make up for not uploading one last week, bringing you my look at two REALLY bad movies. Continue

This took a lot of time to get the timing right, but I think the results have come out well on this one. Hope you enjoy!… Continue

Another new trailer for you to enjoy.

This issue was honestly behind me, but then I re-visited the movie (thanks Rifftrax, some movies DO have it comin’…) and with the release of the second film installment upon us (in much the same way that H1N1 is "upon us") it brought back all of the thoughts that plagued me before. I am not a fan of this franchise, and there's no way anyone could mistake me for one especially if you’ve talked to me or read my review of the first movie. But there are a few things that generally irk the shit out… Continue
