The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor utilises a new location for the undead, it's just unfortunate there is no life to this film. I have to give credit for the idea of using ancient China as the backdrop, the Egyptian mythology was quickly growin... Read the full review »

3:10 To Yuma succumbs to the slow pace of classic westerns but its conclusion is satisfyingly gripping. A remake of the 1957 classic heist western with a modern visualisation that allows a new generation to enjoy the thrills. Y'all know westerns a... Read the full review »

Don Jon tackles a taboo subject and utilises it to create a witty subtle comedy. This is Joseph Gordon-Levitt's baby. Directed, written, produced and starring the man himself. Technically he shows flair and promise, but the film itself lacks quite... Read the full review »

Coco (2017) added to 2018 Movies Ranked list.

Coco is a heartwarming tale that hosts an array of memorable characters on a beautiful Mexican canvas. Pixar rarely put a foot wrong, but lately their animations have become slightly uninspired (I'm looking at you 'Cars' franchise). Fortunately th... Read the full review »

**500TH FILMFED REVIEW** Bridge to Terabithia has the essence of a children's fantasy with a hint of adult drama. This was not the film I thought it was going to be. Looking at the cover, I see plenty of fairies and a luscious kingdom as a backdro... Read the full review »

The Commuter is 'Non-Stop' but on a train. That sentence alone, is how everyone will describe this film. Why? Well, because it is. It's the exact same formula (with the additions of a few twists) that descends into a messy and coincidental plot. Y... Read the full review »

Atonement uses a creative narrative to detail a young romance during WWII. Sprawling across six decades, it chronicles a crime and the unfortunate consequences that follow. I have yet to see all of Joe Wright's filmography at the time of this revi... Read the full review »

The Post (2017) added to 2018 Movies Ranked list.
TheMovieDiorama rated and reviewed a movie.

The Post takes an important subject, uses a masterful director and casts two powerhouse actors to create a thrilling journalistic drama. I consistently read "this is so Oscar-bait" or "another nomination for Streep again!" to which I just have to... Read the full review »

Splice exudes scientific jargon that amounts to stupidity. DNA splicing is a hot topic, taking characteristics from other organisms to create an entirely new one that theoretically should be superior. That's all well and good, but when that concep... Read the full review »

E.T. The Extra Terrestrial is the epitome of 80s family adventure. Consistently referenced in modern day films, a pop cultural phenomenon and rated highly as one of Spielberg's best. Unsurprisingly, I can see why! It has stood the test of time. A... Read the full review »

Up In The Air lures you in with its witty humour, and then smacks you in the face with depression. Much like a plane, this flies past at a speedy pace and somehow takes loneliness to refreshingly elevate it to atmospheric levels. Such an easy watc... Read the full review »

An Education is deliciously sumptuous powered by a stellar cast. This, unfortunately, went under my radar completely. A vintage coming-of-age drama that oozes British charm. How could I not love this!? A young girl with promising prospects for Oxf... Read the full review »

The Great Wall literally is what you expected it to be. A CGI-fuelled action epic that has a by-the-numbers plot and no characterisation. You know what? I actually enjoyed this. I just wanted to be entertained whilst stuffing my face with homemad... Read the full review »

Rings made my head go round in circles, trying to determine how diabolical it was. Can we just take the time to appreciate the original Japanese horror and the American remake. Just...a little bit longer...ok done. The scariest thing about this co... Read the full review »
