The Movie Diorama

Back to the Future accelerates its time traveling nostalgic adventure to a whopping 88mph. Great Scott! Finally managed to watch the quintessential 80s flick that combines a plethora of genres to generate an astounding 1.21 gigawatts. Enough to ma... Read the full review »

Men in Black International had me wanting to be neuralysed over and over again. I can’t. I physically have so much rage within me after watching this, that I’m struggling to keep myself together for the betterment of this review. I’m done. T... Read the full review »

The Hills Have Eyes veers off the road and into a dusty narrative landscape. Having watched Aja's remake a good few times, I felt obliged to watch Craven's cult classic for the first time. Y'know, so I can compare and see how identical the remake... Read the full review »

Justice seeks out equity and morality but instead is guilty of being criminally boring. Nicolas Cage. My man. What happened? You had such a good career, and now you'll do anything for a pay cheque. Including this dribbling mess of a thriller. A hi... Read the full review »

Kick-Ass 2 puts the "ass" in "sucks-ass". Vaughn settled for producing credits, Carrey famously withdrew from supporting the film due to its depiction of violence (yet seemingly filmed a fight scene or two...) and Taylor-Johnson is now a beefcake.... Read the full review »

The Spy Who Shagged Me is as "shagadelic" as a distastefully leopard patterned van used for cruising. Yeah baby, yeah? No baby, no! The sequel to Myers’ international hit, that relished in spoofing popularised spy films, is as groovy as a freque... Read the full review »

Dark Phoenix unleashes its messy, often incoherent but entertaining fire in all its finality. Twelve films. Two decades. Nearly the entirety of Hollywood's A-list actors. All to climatically end on the re-telling of the epic Dark Phoenix saga. How... Read the full review »

4 Months, 3 Weeks and 2 Days harrowingly tests how far one is willing to go for a friend. Immediately I must confess two statements. Firstly, this will be the most challenging review I've ever written due to the subject matter in hand. Secondly, t... Read the full review »

Scooby Doo! Stage Fright! acts out all of the formulaic mystery solving antics in an operatic talent show. Jinkies! It's a cartoon adaptation of 'Phantom of the Opera' with a cynical, yet often rather humorous, perspective on talent shows. You sur... Read the full review »

The Crazies maddeningly spreads its atrocious editing like a virus. Having seen the remake a fair few times and coming to the conclusion that it's actually pretty decent, I wanted to equip my gas mask once more and dive into the original. I find i... Read the full review »

Grease still is the word. Well, I certainly got chills after this first time watch, pretty sure they were multiplying. Oh, and I most definitely was losing control. Mostly because of the power this musical was supplying. Gosh darn it, t'was electr... Read the full review »

Scream 4 revitalises its slashing origins with one last frightened shriek. A vicious storm is approaching. It can only mean one thing. Gale Weathers is back! Oh yes! Craven has returned, baby! All it took was a decade-long pause for him to deliver... Read the full review »

Ma should've invited the writers over to her place for writing lessons. C'mon! Nearly every film is letting me down this year massively! Oh Tate Taylor. How far you have fallen since 'The Help'. What could've been an outlandish psychological thril... Read the full review »

Geri's Game plays its move and delivers a "Checkmate!" worthy short film. The greatest opponent we could ever face is ourselves, and Geri certainly faced a formidable alter ego. This elderly innocent man essentially becomes both players in a role... Read the full review »

Saw The Final Chapter has dismembered every limb and sense of logic. Remember I said 'Saw VI' was an improvement? Yeah. I miss those days. Oh boy! I can categorically confirm that this seventh and "final" chapter is quite simply the worst. Think o... Read the full review »

Saw VI improves on the arduous torturous formula ever so slightly. Well, didn't think I'd be saying this. Sixth instalment in, and an improvement has been made. Woo. Hey, Jigsaw! Pop those confetti blasters. You've done it! Good job! But, it's by... Read the full review »
