A superbly assembled superhero movie.

After 4 years of slowly building a movie continuity, Marvel studios has finally released The Avengers (or Avengers Assemble as it is over here), and in short I loved it. As the build up occurred over the past 4 years there have been characters and films I liked more than ...

A solid adventure

Tintin is a character I have know for many years, about 15-20 years ago the original animated series was shown on British Tv during the summer holidays from school and there would be a different adventure everyday for several weeks. This introduced the character to me and when I first ...

80's thrillers don't come much better

I should start this review by stating that I am a big fan of almost all of Michael Mann's work as a director and count him as possible my favourite director, or at least in the top two. Manhunter is a film I first saw many years ago one night ...

Mindless fun that does not take itself too seriously

Upon hearing the that Universal was going to make a film based on the Hasbro board game, I have to admit I was quite excited thinking that a good film about fighting battleships would be worth seeing as the last one made that comes to mind is Battle of the ...

Not so elite

When I first saw the trailer for this I could not have been more excited for a film. It looked like a stupid action film about two professional assassins hunting each other across the world trying to get the better of each other. It was extremely disappointing to discover upon ...

Oh what an odd film

This is a film I had wanted to see for many years simply because I like historical films and the other work from director Richard Attenborough. The film has been on several greatest war movie lists so I picked it up and finally watched it, and while I liked it ...

A solid action film

As a film genre I like war films and films based around conflict and the people who report it, so when I saw 5 Days of War for £3 I decided to pick it up, and I am glad I did. While it is not the most original film it ...

Entertaining but too serious at times

Bridesmaids is a film that I have heard nothing but praise for since its initial release and with the release of the DVD I have now finally seen it, and I have to say I was left feeling a little let down. The film is definitely a comedy and it ...

Not what I hoped for.

Horrible Bosses is a film that upon seeing the trailer for I thought this looks my sort of comedy, I cannot tell you then how disappointed I was upon finally seeing it. There was nothing inherently wrong with the film, it was just not my sense of humor.The story follows ...

Entertaining but something is missing

By the time I have finally gotten round to writing this review it has now been several weeks since I saw the film. This is by no means a bad thing as what I am remembering is what stood out to me, which is what a review should be based ...

A solid vengeance tale

Hang 'Em High is one of the classic westerns starring Clint Eastwood that I first saw many years ago but only saw recently for the first time in about 20 years. Of the film I remembered very little and it is of mixed quality but the shining part is always ...

A good looking if confused film

I have been waiting many years to see this film, I first heard of it and saw the trailer back when it was first released in Europe in 2006 but it never came to the UK and was only available on DVD for the first time this October. To be ...

A fun comedy that goes against the expected

Tucker and Dale is a film that as soon as I saw the trailer I knew it was a film I had to see, and while I missed it on its limited UK release I did pick up the DVD and throughly enjoy the film. It is easy to say ...

Vicious, brutal and fun

Immortals is a film that when I first heard about it I was hoping would be good. I like mythological tales and the ancient gods but then I saw a picture of Apollo and my hopes for the film vanished. I do not think any of the marketing has helped ...

A Rom-Com in disguise

When I first saw the trailer for this I could see it was trying to be sold as a bloke comedy with some heart, much in the same vein as Knocked Up. However after watching the film I can say that this is more of a deception as it is ...
