[Film Review] The Hunger Games

Unless you’ve been living under a rock lately, I am sure you’ve heard about The Hunger Games. The books are being read by just about everyone and the inevitable film adaptation has been made. But is it any good? In one word … YES! Now I haven’t read the book by Suzanne Collins, the first … Continue reading

[MQFF ’12] Absent (Ausente) (2011)

Absent (Ausente) is a film that kind of lives up to its title on the surface but when one digs deeper, it is anything but. I have to say I found this Argentinean effort to be quite interesting and it took me off guard. I wasn’t quite sure what to expect from it, and the … Continue reading

[MQFF ’12] Ballroom Rules (2012)

Ballroom Rules is an Australian documentary about same-sex ballroom dancing, and it follows several couples as they prepare and then compete at the Gay Games in Germany (2010).

[Review] Shame

I won’t lie, the appeal of Shame for me was really the fact that this was about sex addiction and the sex addict was Michael Fassbender. As a hot-blooded woman, yes I do find Michael Fassbender extremely attractive, but I am a huge fan of him as an actor. He has been so impressive over … Continue reading

[Review] Chronicle

Chronicle turned out to be an unexpected gem, I would put this down to the marketing for the film. It was very unique, it didn’t reveal itself for what it truly was, but it certainly placed an idea of what it may be in my mind, and as it turned out it was quite a … Continue reading
