The Movie Diorama

Rampage ferociously ravages the senses and brings our worst fears of biological weaponry to life. Sounds dark and savage, right? Surprisingly, one of the unexpected elements to this blockbuster is just how gritty and ruinous the narrative's tone i... Read the full review »

The Losers may win in style, but loses in conveying an exciting plot. For me, this is a difficult one to judge. It's full of bumbling personalities, exciting set pieces and comedic one liners, yet it lacks depth. A dull clichéd plot that is as un... Read the full review »

Truth or Dare daringly goes where no horror has gone before, to the realms of stupidity. Incomprehensibly dumb. Categorically absurd. Insultingly boring. I'm done. I'm just done. I know, let's play a game! Truth or Dare? Oh no no, you can't pick t... Read the full review »

The Bye Bye Man resulted in me wanting to "Bye Bye" myself to death. I should've known, all the evidence was there. First January weekend release, low budget horror, negative reviews, all the signs indicating that this was going to be terrible. I... Read the full review »

White Chicks is the equivalent of devouring fattening foods. You know you shouldn't, but it's just too damn good to shout "No! Objection!". Much like with my 'Transporter 2' review, there are films I acknowledge as bad. I know in my head that this... Read the full review »

The Purge portrays a politically unexplored murderous concept. Never has an idea, particularly in the current modern age, such as an annual purge been so relevant. Rise in gun crimes, murders, robberies and all round destructive behaviour has gran... Read the full review »

Mortdecai has all the finesse of a homeless person's moustache. Oh Johnny, why must you do this? Sometimes you can say no, in fact it's good to say no when you are given this absolute drivel. A dash of 'Austin Powers', a splash of 'Pink Panther' a... Read the full review »

The Sense of an Ending is a balanced drama regarding lost time and untimely deaths. Before I begin, as with most adaptations I have not read the source material, although I've heard Barnes' novel is tantalisingly thought-provoking. It's also not o... Read the full review »

Frozen allowed me to let myself go and succumb to the icy musicality. Disney have this structure hands down, they've been doing it for decades. Yet, every so often, one of their animations glisten like a snowflake in the cold breeze. Frozen is jus... Read the full review »

Death Wish made me wish that this remake would die. Having never seen the Bronson original, it was still clear where the plot was heading...I mean it's on the poster. Revenge. Taking the law into your own hands. Buying firearms from your local sto... Read the full review »

The Walk balances heightening visuals with a towering aspirational story. The true story of a man, just one individual, walking across the twin towers of the World Trade Center. Yes, Philippe Petit had the audacity to disobey the law and chase his... Read the full review »

Thoroughbreds is a thorough teen thriller that was thoroughly intense. As I watch more films and let my film taste grow as an amateur critic, dabbling into indie contemporary productions most certainly impress me more than big budget blockbusters.... Read the full review »
