Film Review: The Tooth Fairy

by Paul Pencott

There comes a time in the life of every muscle-bound action movie star when they have to reassess their chosen careers. The days of making a living resembling a sausage stuffed with knuckles and staring at bad guys with an expression that suggests they are in the middle of a problematic bowel-movement will not last [...]

Armored: Blu-ray Review

by David Scarborough

Predators: that looks a decent film, doesn’t it? We’re all looking forward to watching the limp-wristed Adrian Brody holding a gun in an image akin to a Twiglit holding a cricket bat, right? What you probably didn’t realise is that the unfortunately named Nimrod Antel has recently honed his directing chops on Armored, which hits DVD [...]

Movie Review – Prince Of Persia: The Sands Of Time

by David Schwartz

It’s official! Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time is the best film ever to be adapted from a computer game. Sorry Kirby: Fright to the Finish!! fans. The problem is that that’s a plaudit on a level with being the best-looking EastEnders star, the least nightmarish member of the Dolmio Family or the twin [...]

Movie Review: Robin Hood

by David Schwartz

In true Robin Hood spirit, Ridley Scott has taken £237million from various rich people to make a very poor movie. Robin Hood? More like Rotten Hood. Rotten acting, rotten script, rotten idea, very rotten accents. In fact, Robin Hood is so bad, I have to confess I did something in a cinema that I have [...]

Movie Review: A Nightmare On Elm Street

by David Schwartz

Freddy Krueger’s back – again, sort of, in a new remake of A Nightmare On Elm Street – so whatever you do, don’t fall asleep. Not because watching one the world’s best-loved child killers back on the big screen may induce some sleepless nights worrying about your own ironic death. But because debut director Samuel [...]

Boondock Saints II: All Saints Day – DVD Review

by David Scarborough

Irish stereotypes: They will have us all believing that if our paddy friends aren’t pickling themselves in alcohol, they are furiously thrusting their fists in the general area of any indistinct bystander’s face. Of course, it’s all complete hogwash. The only Irish people we know are singers, and they generally make us drink excessively and [...]

The Stepfather – DVD Review

by David Scarborough

Horror remakes are the kind of subgenre that appear to be greenlit with reckless abandon but are approached, by everyone but a select lobotomised few, with nothing but sheer trepidation. They’re a scary prospect, these days. At least The Stepfather has the decency to eliminate the inconvenience of having to guess who the killer is [...]

2012: Blu-ray Review

by David Scarborough

Roland Emmerich (Independence Day, The Day After Tomorrow) ushers in another wave of pixel-powered doom, this time wiping out our collective brain cells with his latest movie of mass destruction. 2012 is one of those happy movies; on one hand, serving up a doom-laden prophecy of global annihilation and, on the other, making you utterly [...]

More Alice in Wonderland money in the Weekend Box Office

by Mof Gimmers

The cinema is a factory shop-floor of idiot workers munching popcorn whilst an all seeing eye pumps out words and images from a mondo moving eyeball leaving you pinned in your seats, noses flexing at the smell of BO and the disinfectant from the nearby bogs.
