Predators travels back to its jungle roots but feels drier than its humid environment. After a lacklustre sequel and collaboration with a far more successful sci-fi franchise, Rodriguez attempts to resurrect this carcass of a film series. While th... Read the full review »

Red's Dream may just contain the most nightmarish clown ever. Pixar were starting to experiment. After the success of their previous short 'Luxo Jr', Lasseter attempted to recreate the technicality and wonderment of the animation by introducing ne... Read the full review »

Surrogates is another exercise in "great concept, poor execution". Ever thought to yourself "wow, actually that would make for an intellectually stimulating and philosophically provocative film challenging both morals and ethics"? No? Really? Just... Read the full review »

Gaga: Five Foot Two chaotically illustrates the pressure and idolisation of being a pop star. Lady Gaga is quite simply known everywhere. From the tiniest of countries to the most desolate of wastelands. She has made a name for herself through her... Read the full review »

Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within is criminally overlooked with its ghostly photorealistic animation. If ever there was a film that deserved more attention, demanded more respect and warranted as one of the most groundbreaking animations of all ti... Read the full review »

Deep Blue Sea swims around in stupidity, yet offers a chomp of pure entertainment. This film...is swimmingly good. It makes a splash and dives so far down the depths of entertainment, that it doesn't allow itself to breathe. It has one heck of a b... Read the full review »

Mimic (1997)

Mimic (1997)

5 / 10
Mimic imitates previous creature features but fails to copy their innovation. Low budget horrors were of high saturation during the 90s, as directors attempt to blend CGI with prosthetics to enhance the quality of their films. From 'Tremors' to 'A... Read the full review »

The Limehouse Golem resembles a classic gothic murder mystery but less malleable than clay. Period mysteries set in 19th century London are rather frequent. The era of Sherlock Holmes, "Jack the Ripper" and a plethora of unsolved crimes. Its own g... Read the full review »

Yardie (2018)

Yardie (2018)

7 / 10
Yardie mixes mellow character driven reggae with violently noisy bass. A directorial debut for the talented Idris Elba, and what a promising start this is. Flourishing in its Jamaican roots with a hint of Hackney on the side, Elba manages to adapt... Read the full review »

The Machinist is entangled in paranoia, delusions and a disturbingly thin Bale. Everyone has heard of it. Hosting what is possible the most method performance of all time. But, unfortunately, not many have actually sat down and watched this dark p... Read the full review »

Slender Man should've taken me instead. Five years too late I'm afraid, although to be quite frank the year of release does not matter. It's still a terrible film regardless. Have Hollywood seriously run out of ideas that they are now resorting to... Read the full review »

The Happytime Murders had me wishing I was getting stuffed (take that as you will). What the fluff happened here? As transgressive as this premise was, with its rather pronounced social commentary, it failed on nearly every element. Not only was t... Read the full review »

BlacKkKlansman doesn't hold back addressing the current political/racial climate. Truth be told, I've not been looking forward to reviewing this. Much like Spike Lee, I have much to say regarding the apparent racial clash in America's modern-like... Read the full review »

Devil (2010)

Devil (2010)

5 / 10
Devil paints a mildly thrilling picture to the phrase "Devil in Disguise". Ding! Floor 666 please. Essentially a mystery thriller with a religious overtone that hones in on forgiveness and sin confession. Except it lacks the depth required to conv... Read the full review »
