Tag shouts "You're It!" through fun slow motion carnage and true friendship. You would think a group of grown men playing tag once a month every year would make for a silly disposable comedy, right? Well, you're right. Is that necessarily a negati... Read the full review »

The Atticus Institute nearly institutionalised me into an early nap. Pseudo-documentaries can be an interesting narrative structure to convey a story. It automatically heightens the realism and enables creative use of camera placement, whether it... Read the full review »

Better Watch Out wishes you a "Merry Christmas" by giving you 'Home Alone' on way too much mulled wine. Having completely unacknowledged this horror for quite some time, I actually removed it from my mind. It caught me by surprise one day, bought... Read the full review »

Ricki and the Flash feels more classical than rock 'n' roll. The late Jonathan Demme had a illustrious career of acclaimed titles including 'Silence of the Lambs' and 'Philadelphia'. He was undoubtedly a pioneering director in the early 90s. So it... Read the full review »

Sicario: Day of the Soldado (2018) added to 2018 Movies Ranked list.

Sicario 2: Soldado lacks the finesse of the original but increases the brutality and darkness of a continuous war. Its predecessor had the perfect formula. Villeneuve, Blunt, Deakins and the late Jóhannsson. All vital components into making a hyp... Read the full review »

Terminator Salvation does not save the franchise but instead leads it down a dark generic apocalyptic tunnel. McG. Really? That was the best director you could obtain to act as your salvation for this franchise? Mc-flipping-G!? Christ. Let me clea... Read the full review »

Phenomena may not be phenomenally scary, but bathes in a pool of decomposing B-Movie corpses. My first Argento experience and the my first film within the giallo horror sub-genre, a specific Italian production that excels in body horror. And oh my... Read the full review »

Ted is easily the least cuddliest teddy bear, and surprisingly the unfunniest. I like MacFarlane. 'Family Guy' was one of the first animations to genuinely make me laugh, his profane use of comedy felt refreshing. Over ten years later, his comedy... Read the full review »

Troy relishes in lavish epic battles and set pieces but has all the depth of blood-soaked sand. Having seen the theatrical version, I thought to give the director's cut an opportunity at winning me over. Totalling at a gargantuan 196 minutes, the... Read the full review »

Le Manoir Du Diable utilises its spooky themes to evoke amusement rather than fear. Titled 'The Devil's Castle' here in the UK, it is claimed to be the very first "horror" film due to the imagery of spectres, demons and vampirism. In actual fact,... Read the full review »

Borg vs McEnroe (2017) added to 2017 Movies Ranked list.

Borg vs McEnroe presents an unbalanced rivalry of mentality from two of the greatest players. As a huge fan of tennis and the ATP rankings, I was immediately attracted to this biopic. John McEnroe and Björn Borg were arguably two of the finest le... Read the full review »

Fright Night does not make me frightened of night, rather instead makes me tolerate it. Within the dark depths of Hollywood, some mortal thought it would be a genius idea to remake the 1985 cult classic. Whilst it retains some enjoyment, it is mes... Read the full review »

The Host took control of my body and nearly forced me to turn it off. "By Stephenie Meyer, author of The Twilight Saga". Three young beautiful adults on the front cover. Wonderful taglines like "choose to love". The warnings were there, and I did... Read the full review »

In This Corner Of The World frantically captures a young woman's struggle during Japan's darkest years. Japanese animation commonly use World War II as a backdrop for their characters enriched with traditionalisms and virtuous optimism, Ghibli are... Read the full review »
