WHAT I LIKED: Rightfully earning its pedestal position within modern cinema history, 'Blade Runner' truly is one of the most immersive, intelligent and original sci-fi blockbusters ever made, and this is largely thanks to Ridley Scott who brillian... Read the full review »

WHAT I LIKED: The first Kinsgman was a joy because of how assured and original it was, but its sequel - 'Kingsman: The Golden Circle' - decides to chuck even more into the pan and turn up the heat, and in some places that definitely works. Indeed... Read the full review »

WHAT I LIKED: Now I have to preface this by saying I'm entirely unfamiliar with any of this film's source material, but what we clearly got here was less so a horror pic, and more so an adventure movie with a few horror sketches sprinkled througho... Read the full review »

WHAT I LIKED: What can be said about 'The Hitman's Bodyguard' that hasn't already been said? Well other than the fact its shameless direction should probably receive a little more credit than its getting, it is indeed true that this film is a ligh... Read the full review »

He started his journey to movie-stardom in 1981 with a supporting role in the terrible 'Endless Love,' but since then he's become one of the most famous big-hitters - and arguably big-missers - working in Hollywood today. Yes, from creepy teenager... Read the full review »

'American Made' Review
The true story of 'American Made,' - the latest film from 'The Bourne Identity' director Doug Liman - looks set to be the better Tom Cruise movie of 2017 as it sends him back to the pilot's seat and us right into the era where he first made it to... Read the full blog post »

WHAT I LIKED: I'm no avid Harry Potter reader, but I'm told that 'The Order of the Phoenix' is by far the most lengthy and heavy-going book of them all, and that only makes this snappy film adaptation all the more impressive. Yes if anything reall... Read the full review »

WHAT I LIKED: 'Reservoir Dogs' is of course an intelligent and stripped-down thriller that aims to be gritty and exciting, but first and foremost - as is the case with virtually all of his subsequent pictures - it is a Quentin Tarantino movie. Yes... Read the full review »

Films that everybody hates that you love?
Revenge of the Sith is definitely my favourite prequel, but then that doesn't really do it justice because that's a bit like chosing a favourite type of wart...

WHAT I LIKED: There is certainly some engagement to be unlocked here when it comes to the journey of our lead characters, as the story itself is rather interesting and the performances certainly have their high-points where real chemistry is felt... Read the full review »

WHAT I LIKED: There sure is a lot to admire in Ridley Scott's award-winning theatrical debut 'The Duellists,' as it's clearly a film made with a lot of care and confident consideration. Yes in portraying his thematically significant story through... Read the full review »

WHAT I LIKED: In the words of Michael Mann himself, there is certainly some merit here to be found in the production design, the practical effects and the eerie direction of tension during some of the opening scenes.
WHAT I DIDN'T LIKE: Unfortunat... Read the full review »

WHAT I LIKED: If Denis Villeneuve tried to direct a comedy, one could imagine it might wind up looking something a little like 'Cop Car,' and that is in every sense a huge compliment to pay. Yes Jon Watts' sparse and thrilling direction really doe... Read the full review »

WHAT I LIKED: Like his 'John Wick,' David Leitch's 'Atomic Blonde' is an action film all about the cool factor, but the layers here are actually very different indeed. Yes for one this is a far grittier film than you might expect as whilst all the... Read the full review »
