We Own The Night

3/5 I expected this to be a bit better, it was pretty average and it kind of dragged in parts. The acting was fine for the most part, Eva Mendes isn’t a very good actress she was better in this but still not very good. She almost just seemed to not really know what to … Continue reading →

The Machinist

3.5/5 What a fucking weird ass movie. That was basically my first reaction after it finished. I had such a hard time watching it to start with as Christian Bale looked like a rotting corpse! How the heck did he manage that? The lengths people go to for a role! Although just another reason why … Continue reading →

Velvet Goldmine

5/5 I want to have sex with this movie over and over and over again! I do love just everything about this film and I do mean everything! The acting is fantastic, the cast is fantastic! I love the script, I love the story and the costumes are just brilliant! I’m not sure how many … Continue reading →

[Mini Review] The Brave One (2009)

[Mini Review] The Brave One (2009)

I thought this was pretty average, sure Jodie Foster can carry a film and she’s great. But the actual script and storyline really let this one down. It was really just too unbelievable, and I really thought it could have been done in a way which seemed more plausible and because of that it really … Continue reading →

[Mini Review] 3:10 To Yuma (2007)

What a movie! I loved this! I expected to like it, but not totally fall in with it! Everything about this was great, I loved the story (Yes I know it was a remake), and I liked the way our two leads developed over the course of the film. Russell Crowe is amazing in his … Continue reading →

[Rewind] Mini Review: Heathers

Heathers The ultimate teen high school black comedy! Who didn’t love this movie growing up? This totally go me through my youth and watching it again was just truly awesome. The script is great, so clever and funny and for back then very daring. I’m not even sure they’d dare do this today honestly! Winona … Continue reading →

Gone Baby Gone

4.5/5 I’ve been looking forward to this for quite some time, I was really impressed by the trailer and wanted to see how Ben Affleck would do behind the camera. Glad to report, Affleck has done a great job! Perhaps he should do more behind the camera, what he has here is a very good … Continue reading →

Jack Ketchum’s The Girl Next Door

4/5 Firstly this isn’t an easy movie to get through, the subject matter is quite disturbing and depressing. The fact that this was based on a real story makes it even more so. While it is a fictionalised account of that story (Based on the book of the same name) the main things which make … Continue reading →

[Mini Review] A Scanner Darkly (2006)

[Mini Review] A Scanner Darkly (2006)

What a bizarre film! At first the animation put me off, but after a few minutes I got used to it. It was very well done though, the scramble suit looked awesome. I wouldn’t mind hiding out in one of those! The story was an interesting one, one about drugs in the future, paranoia, different … Continue reading →

Juno

4.5/5 I really enjoyed this alot, it certainly is my kind of film. I didn’t think it was over-rated, I can how this would appeal to a wide audience. Ellen Page is the next new star (Now dear, stay off the drugs, keep chosing good roles you’ll have a bright future ahead of you!) she … Continue reading →

[Rewind] Mini Review: Fargo

Fargo One of the classic films from the 90’s, always great to revisit this one. Everything about it is just perfect, the script, the actors, just everything! A simply storyline where things just keep going wrong. What is great about this, is it just goes by so quickly, one of the awesome qualities of this … Continue reading →
