Strange Days (1995) Review

Strange Days (1995) Review

Strange Days has plenty to say about the present day too. Long before she became the queen of clinically detached but nerve-shreddingly tense true-life docudrama, Kathryn Bigelow directed this vastly underrated, far-sighted techno-thriller. Now finally released on BluRay, it’s time, from the bizarre present day of 2017, to reappraise the Strange Days of 1995. Lenny ..

mother! (2017) Review

mother! (2017) Review

Not even Nick Knowles could help J-Law with a DIY SOS of this magnitude I have a near-pathological dislike of people coming into my home uninvited or unannounced and I remember when we first moved into the house we live in, it had a front door which, if it was unlocked, you could just open ..

Kingsman: The Golden Circle (2017) Review

Kingsman: The Golden Circle (2017) Review

Can The Golden Circle grab the brass ring? “Kingsman: The Secret Service”, a gleefully disrespectful, violent and funny action reworking of “My Fair Lady” was an unexpected delight, right up until it ended on a decidedly bum note. Regrettably, in tuning up for the sequel, write Jane Goldman and director Matthew Vaughan have taken that ..

Greedy (1994) Review

Greedy (1994) Review

Greedy leaves you wanting more Something of a lost movie, “Greedy” features a cracking cast of 1990s comic talent in an old-fashioned farce as a family vie for their elderly uncle’s affections and, more importantly, vast fortune. Uncle Joe (Kirk Douglas) isn’t getting any younger or any less curmudgeonly. He’s also a millionaire, which is ..

Marvel’s Inhumans IMAX “Experience” Review

Oh, the inhumanity! 😱 Remember a couple of years back when we were being teased by Vin Diesel about his potential casting as Black Bolt as the MCU geared up to introduce The Inhumans in a big-budget feature film? Good times. Flash forward to the present day and instead, we get ‘visionary’ showrunner Scott Buck’s ..
