Blu-ray Review: WWE Destruction Of The Shield 2 Disc Set (2015)
Featuring: Seth Rollins, Dean Ambrose and Roman Reigns The Main Feature: As a huge fan of The Shield (and yes I was heartbroken when they split), I was thrilled to hear about this new set.

Dir: Alexander Payne Featuring: Bruce Dern, Wille Forte, June Squibb The Film: There is one director who is slowly rising up to be one of my favourite filmmakers working today, and that director is Alexander Payne.

Dir: Phil Lord and Christopher Miller Featuring: Chris Pratt, Will Arnett, Elizabeth Banks, Morgan Freeman, Alison Brie, Will Ferrell The Film: My childhood consisted of making Lego, my mother would buy me some epic sets with Castles and I would have a blast building them or just making my own creations and collecting the figures. … Continue reading
Blu-ray Review: Kiki’s Delivery Service [G] by Bea Harper
Director: Hayao Miyazaki The Film: First thing’s first, I want to thank Marcey for sending me this movie to re-watch, it really means a lot to me!

Blu-ray Review: The Thieves [M15] by Bea Harper
Director: Choi Dong Hoon Starring: Yun-seok Kim, Hae-suk Kim, Jung-Jae Lee, Angelica Lee The Film: Ah, South Korea, again you delight me.

Blu-ray Review: War Of The Arrows [M15] by Bea Harper
Director: Han-min Kim Starring: Hae-il Park, Seung-yong Ryoo, Chae-won Moon, Mu-Yeol Kim The Film: To me, human mythology is human history and vice versa.

Director: Nicholas Jarecki Starring: Richard Gere, Susan Sarandon, Tim Roth, Brit Marling The Film: I’ve been a Richard Gere fan for as long as I can remember, it was my mother who introduced me to him, as he is her favourite actor.

Blu-ray Review: Bernie [M15]
Dir: Richard Linklater Featuring: Jack Black, Shirlley MacLaine, Matthew McConaughey The Film: Without a doubt Bernie is one of the strangest films I have seen for the past few years.

Blu-ray Review: Hell And Back Again [M15] & DVD Review: Trishna [MA15]
Dir: Danfung Dennis Director: Featuring: Nathan Harris, Ashley Harris The Film: Last year I was very impressed by war documentary Armadillo, and generally I do find documentaries on the subject a tough watch.
