Kick-Ass

4.5/5 A film that actually lives up to its title, this film actually does Kickass! Kickass is based on a comic of course, but this is quite a different type of Superhero film (and comic I assume). There aren’t any superpowers here, just a regular guy who wants to make a difference. Our main character … Continue reading

Undisputed 3

4/5 Undisputed 3 picks up some time after Undisputed 2, we find Boyka (Scott Adkins) is recovering from the knee injury suffered at the hands of Chambers. He isn’t the man he once was, he is almost unrecognisable, from his attitude to the way he looks. He’s become a toilet cleaner, and it is pretty … Continue reading

Undisputed II

4/5 What are the ingredients to make a film that Marcey will go crazy over? Scott Adkins, Michael Jai White and amazing martial arts, that’s what! I felt like Undisputed II was made just for me, and it has become of one of favourite films! This is a sequel to Undisputed which starred Wesley Snipes … Continue reading

Looking Back At Superman Returns

Superman Returns is on TV right now, and it is very much a love it or hate film. As a huge Superman fan, I remember how excited I was for this film. The anticipation I felt was just unreal, I probably hadn’t been that excited since Star Wars Ep 1. I think I drove everyone … Continue reading

Ninja

4/5 Ninja, the film which really introduced me to Scott Adkins. Now I don’t want this review to be completely biased towards Scott Adkins, which is probably why it has taken me this long to actually review it. Ninja is a throw back to those classic 80’s martial arts films, it has the outsider, Casey … Continue reading

The Runaways

4/5 The Runaways has been marketed as the Joan Jett bio-pic, however that is slightly in-correct. The Runaways is really Cherrie Currie’s story, and she is more the focus than Joan. This was based on Cherrie’s book and it covers The Runaways with her time with them, from the start until her fall and her … Continue reading

[Mini Review] Black Dynamite (2009)

[Mini Review] Black Dynamite (2009)

How can I describe Black Dynamite? I don’t even think I want to, as I think this is a film that you best go into and just watch. I mean all you really need to know is that is stars the awesome martial arts star Michael Jai White, it is a throw back to the … Continue reading

Ninja Assassin

3.5/5 I think the title says it all, in regards to what this is about. It is about a ninja assassin, that really is all you need to know. Ninja films aren’t known for their fantastic plots, they have the good guys, the bad guys and ninja’s doing their thing. But if you must know … Continue reading

Pandorum

2.5/5 Pandorum is a film which borrows heavily from other sci-fi films, chances are you have seen this film before and then some. In a nicely done opening we find ourselves on a ship in the future, it appears to be empty. Our main character Bower (Ben Foster) is awakened from suspended animation, and has … Continue reading

Leaves Of Grass

3/5 I still am a little unsure on how I feel about this film, which is why it has taken me so long to actually write a review for it. This was a huge mixed bag, some parts I enjoyed, other parts I didn’t really like and it felt like too many genre’s and ideas … Continue reading

Wake Of Death

4/5 I know that the films of Jean-Claude Van Damme aren’t for everyone, but they are for me! I am a huge fan of JCVD, and I was pleasantly surprised with Wake Of Death, not only is it above average for direct to DVD but Van Damme puts on one of his best performances. Wake … Continue reading

Infamous

4/5 I have wanted to catch this since it came out, and now I finally managed to get around to it. Suffering from the fact that this was made at the same time as Capote and that film came out first and of course got all the recognition, this one kind of went under the … Continue reading
