Endgame finalises eleven years of meticulous planning in an epic superhero extravaganza. The Marvel Cinematic Universe is a behemoth. A cultural phenomenon that has enveloped the minds of audiences everywhere. Since 2008 when 'Iron Man' graced our... Read the full review »

Thor The Dark World soars endlessly in Asgardian light instead of Elvish darkness. Continuing on from the events of 'The Avengers' and acting as a sequel to 'Thor', which is incredibly underrated and overlooked, The Dark World shrouds itself in an... Read the full review »

Annabelle dresses up its chills in frivolous uninspired jump scares. A welcomed spin-off to 'The Conjuring', considering its sub-plot involving the titular wretched doll certainly terrified many, if only it was handed to a more experienced directo... Read the full review »

The Conjuring summons intelligent camera trickery to produce one of the best horrors of the decade. James Wan is an innovator when it comes to crafting horror pictures. He cemented his technical capabilities with 'Saw' and perfected his invigorati... Read the full review »

The Last Witch Hunter offers a plague of fantastical visual effects yet eternally damns all to boredom. If you told me that Vin Diesel would be cast as a witch slayer who is cursed with eternal life, I would've joked that his other 'Fast & Furious... Read the full review »

The Wolfman tamely howls in the full moonlight. Modernising Universal's classic monster movie was inevitable, with the likes of 'Frankenstein' and 'Dracula' garnering several adaptations over the last few decades. Fortunately, horror/monster films... Read the full review »

Into The Storm blows its severe blustery weather across an incredibly boring story. The essence of a B-Movie is to create something so ludicrous from a low budget, that it actually manifests its own charm. 'Sharknado' for instance. Inherently ridi... Read the full review »

Contraband smuggles a decent cast into an unfocused forgettable story. Remaking one of Iceland's biggest films 'Reykjavíc-Rotterdam' was inevitably going to happen at some point. Surprisingly one of stars of that film, Kormákur, helmed the direc... Read the full review »

The American substitutes outlandish action for a vacuous yet restrained dramatic thriller. It was only a matter of time before I watched this. A film hated by audiences for its misrepresenting marketing and rarely discussed amongst cinephiles due... Read the full review »

Wonder (2017)

Wonder (2017)

7 / 10
Wonder combats prejudicial bullying by presenting a tender story that warmed my heart. As an avid watcher of dark dramas tackling depression and suicidal tendencies, the thought of experiencing Wonder wasn't one that rushed to my mind. Light mains... Read the full review »

Die Hard 4.0 hacks through a generic plot and grants access to exciting set pieces. The fourth Die Hard film, or as I like to call it "the last good Die Hard instalment", sees John McClane do what John McClane does best. Singlehandedly saving the... Read the full review »

Noah (2014)

Noah (2014)

6 / 10
Noah is flooded with artistic interpretation creating an inconsistent fantasy. Aronofsky is a visual auteur. One for infamously producing evocative imagery to convey the very essence of humanity. For him to helm the retelling of possibly one of th... Read the full review »

Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun-literally becoming Caucasian. Come on! Even if Kreuk is of Asian descent, she's blatantly miscast considering her character is predominantly Asian when portrayed as a young girl (and the source material). Laughab... Read the full review »

Missing Link safely adventures across the globe showcasing Laika's stunning craftsmanship. The love and admiration I share for this production company knows no bounds (as you may be well aware). They are able to turn even the most simplest of stor... Read the full review »

Hitman (2007)

Hitman (2007)

4 / 10
Hitman nearly assassinates its source material through a mundane plot. Let me go on record by saying this is not the worst video game adaptation out there. It's not. Have you seen Uwe Boll's films? I would go as far as saying I do not hate this fi... Read the full review »

Hostel Part II butchers its way through another franchise. Roth's original Hostel wasn't a masterpiece by any means, only really being a tame horror of the "torture-porn" variety. But it had a underlying sense of morality whilst presenting a hyper... Read the full review »

Hellboy should've remained in the fiery inferno of the underworld. Critics banished it, audiences failed to connect with it and production was apparently a nightmare. Some may say this unnecessary reboot was doomed from the start. But you know wha... Read the full review »
