Okay, I’m gonna come right out and say it – I don’t have a lot of love for the Mission Impossible series. If it’s action-packed espionage spy thrillery stuff I want, then I’ll watch the Bourne trilogy. I don’t think I’ve seen the first M.I. film since I rented it on VIDEO. Mission Impossible 2 soiled my eyes and mind with its awfulness. Heck, I haven’t even bothered catching up with Mission Impossible 3. So, why the heck am I reviewing Ghost Protocol? Because I love you, that’s why. Read more »

A quick update on Ridley Scott’s Prometheus. We’ve got the international poster we can see above. Not a lot different from the one released late last year, you get a better view of THE BIG GIANT HEAD. Less shrouded in darkness this time. There’s an ear! That’s new, right? Anyway, that’s not all we have. We have a new pic too. Check it out. Read more »
Birds fall from the sky, a horse collapses to the ground dying, sparks fly from Kirsten Dunst’s fingers, and we see the destruction of Earth by the looming giant blue planet Melancholia. All this in super slo-mo to a Wagnerian score. It’s beautiful and bleak. And all in the first ten minutes. Read more »
I have to admit, I really didn’t think we’d be writing all that much about The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo after the release of the US version. I mean, it’s great (see my review here), but everything has been pretty much covered, hasn’t it? Apparently not. Nope, you see, DC want in on Stieg Larsson’s moneyspinner too, and their adult off-shoot, Vertigo, is producing a graphic novel for each the Millennium trilogy. Wanna see the cover? Read more »
So, last night I dreamt my friend, @BunchOfSteve, and I were invited to see the première of The Dark Knight Rises. No, true story. I’m not making this up for an interesting intro. I would never do that. Anyway, we were watching the film and it was AWFUL. I mean, George Lucas could have done better. Turned out Chris Nolan had made the film deliberately dreadful as part of an elaborate practical joke… and then I woke up. What’s this got to do with anything? Well, not a lot, but we may have a name for Batman’s new flying vehicle and some fairly big spoilers too. Read more »
Coriolanus, directed by and starring the nasally ominous Ralph Fiennes [raif-ines], is a Shakespearean tragedy that focuses on a man who makes war with foreign countries, his own country and more or less anyone within a five metre radius.
But is it any cop?
The Blair Witch Project has a lot to answer for. If not for its spectacular box office return on a minuscule budget, we would have been spared the current flood of ‘found footage’ films. Don’t get me wrong, I’m one of the few people who seemingly enjoyed Blair Witch, but it seems that everyone is at it these days. The fourth Paranormal Activity film is on its way. The first one is okay, I suppose, if you like your scares utterly predictable. But do we need four? How many camcorder shots of open doors do we need? We’ve also had big budget monster flick, Cloverfield. It trashed New York. Where do we go from there? Well, it seems the answer is the forests of Norway with Troll Hunter. Read more »
Hey, I know you guys like Will Ferrell. I mean, why wouldn’t you? He’s a funny guy! Remember that film Anchorman? Yeah, me too. It’s hard not with all the fucking quotes you see on Facebook and Twitter nearly every day… ANYWAY, yes, funny funnyman Will Ferrell is back being funny in funny film, Casa De Mi Padre. Roll the trailer, youtubes… Read more »
