Rust and Bone remains humanistic throughout but slowly meanders into the vast sea. French cinema just keeps getting better, and that's partially down to two of the finest actors working today. Marion Cotillard and Matthias Schoenaerts. Put these t... Read the full review »

Sleepless has nothing to do with sleep, but it sure made me fall asleep. Granted, I was generally fatigued and knew I shouldn't have watched it but not to worry, I'm always on the case and attempted it again the next day. Was it worth it? No. Howe... Read the full review »

Solo: A Star Wars Story may be wholly unnecessary but remains another enjoyable ride on the Millenium Falcon. If ever there was a franchise film with major production issues, this is it. "Fired" directors, tight deadline, unfinished script...suffi... Read the full review »

The Quiet Ones, despite the loud piercing jump scares, remains too quiet with its thrills. Parapsychological thrillers will always interest me. Blending supernatural tension with the complexity of psychology can make for some intriguing themes, ma... Read the full review »

The Woman In Black: Angel of Death is the perfect tame remedy for insomnia. First time I watched this, I fell asleep. Thought to purchase it to give it another go and guess what? I fell asleep. There is something about this dull monotonous horror... Read the full review »

The Zero Theorem questions the meaning of life but gets lost in its quirky style. At the time of this review, this is my first Gilliam film. Having heard how zany 'Brazil' and 'Twelve Monkeys' were, I thought to attempt one of his flicks. So the u... Read the full review »

Epic (2013)

Epic (2013)

6 / 10
Epic may have shot itself in the foot with its title, but provides leaves of family entertainment. Really? You choose to name your film 'Epic'? That's like naming a film 'Colourful' and it turns out to be black and white, you just know you are nev... Read the full review »

Attack The Block is probably the most exciting film featuring a London council block. Although that's not saying much, let's be honest. Aliens tend to strike landmarks or major capital cities. We've seen the White House explode, The Great Wall of... Read the full review »

Viceroy's House is a historical drama with enough Indian spice to maintain viewer engagement. Honestly looking at the trailer, I was expecting a story that was made for TV but attempted to be bold enough to grace the big screen. I couldn't be anym... Read the full review »

Citizen Kane might just be the most important motion picture in the history of cinema. "The greatest film of all time". "The most influential piece of cinema ever". "Orson Welles is the best actor to have ever lived". "Technically flawless". Can w... Read the full review »

Akira (1988)

Akira (1988)

9 / 10
Akira is arguably the most influential anime classic of all time. Garnering a title such as that automatically inserts high expectations upon everyone. Well, from what I just witnessed, it pretty much floored me. Two school drop outs, Kaneda and T... Read the full review »

Knight and Day is teeming with forgettable energy that will only last the day and night of you seeing this. Vanilla Sky 2? Hmm...maybe not. Charlie's Angel? Nope, not feeling that either. Mission Impossible 4.5? Getting warmer. Tom Cruise: Typical... Read the full review »

Deadpool 2 is more of the same, just for another two hours. Whether you view that as a negative or positive will depend on how much you enjoyed its predecessor. For me, it was decent with enough violence, fourth wall breaks and referential comedy... Read the full review »

Homefront is easily one of Statham's stronger action dramas. With every film I watch of his, my admiration for him heightens to explosive levels. His commitment to the stunt work, the cheesy one liners, the mediocre American accent. He negates the... Read the full review »

Breaking In feels broken even before breaking into its generic thrilling stride. Thriller. Easily my favourite genre in all of cinema. There's something invigorating about sitting on the edge of your seat, chomping at your fingernails as you glanc... Read the full review »
