[Review] The Conjuring (2013) by Bede Jermyn

[Review] The Conjuring (2013) by Bede Jermyn

Australian director James Wan has definitely come a long way in the nine years since his debut film in 2004. He directed a film that started one of the biggest horror franchises in the last decade with SAW and then went on to make many more really good films in either the action and horror genres. … Continue reading

[Review] The Lone Ranger (2013) by Bea Harper

[Review] The Lone Ranger (2013) by Bea Harper

I have always had a huge affinity for the pulp serials of the 30’s- oh yeah, they were HARDLY politically correct when it came to matters such as ethnicity, gender roles and the portrayal of human condition, but they were also simple and most importantly, escapist. Considering the time when this media was available, tough … Continue reading

Bea’s Facebook Follies: Resident Evil

Bea’s Facebook Follies: Resident Evil

Speaking objectively, as a general film in terms of entertainment, the first ‘Resident Evil’ really isn’t a bad effort. If we forget for a moment what the series would become (that is an entire CLUSTERFUCK of money, time and potential talent), this movie made more of a concious effort to be a standalone rather than … Continue reading

Bea’s Facebook Follies: Breaking Dawn Part 2

First impressions are indeed everything when it comes to making a reputation of oneself. Thusly, welcome to my inaugural new article “Facebook Follies”, which is similar to The Terrible Australian’s Bad Movie Tweet-A-Thon, only on Facebook and hopefully more movies that are less likely to make Baby Jesus cry. I will be doing a blow-by-blow … Continue reading

[RRFF ’13] A Long And Happy Life

[RRFF ’13] A Long And Happy Life

A Long And Happy Life might be the title of the film, but it is certainly misleading and purposely so. I think the title is about the longing for a happy life, which is what I feel our main character Sasha (Aleksandr Yatsenko) wants. He’s moved to rural Russia hoping for that long and happy … Continue reading

[Review] Monsters University (2013)

[Review] Monsters University (2013)

Monsters University is the long awaited prequel to Pixar’s 2001 hit Monsters Inc. While the company has done sequels, this is their first prequel and it is an intriguing idea. Kids and adults alike were introduced to the world of the monsters, and more specifically two monster friends Mike (voiced by Billy Crystal) and Sully … Continue reading

[Review] World War Z (2013)

[Review] World War Z (2013)

Zombies really have been such a big deal in pop culture for many years, at times the market does feel a little saturated. It is hard to pick and chose from what’s on offer, with so many things being very much alike. Fans do pay attention when the sub-genre offers something a little different, with … Continue reading
