Brilliant! Its great to see John McClane back on the screen. It really is like going to see an old friend. When I sat down in the cinema I was thinking “so what’s that John McClane up to now?” I really enjoyed the plot, evil geeks hacking into everything that is computer controlled and bringing… Continue reading

Rubbish! If it wasn’t for the fact we had a large bar of chocolate I would have lost the will to live. Christopher Nolan is a brilliant director Why did he bother making this, the most boring film of the year. I never thought I would say this, but even Scarlett Johannsen failed to stir… Continue reading

Great film about the truce on Christmas Eve 1914 which took place on the front line during the first world war. Its an incredibly moving film, particuarly in the scenes where the opposing sides start singing Christmas carols from their trenches. 8/10 Continue reading

Went to see “Vacancy” with the Corkys tonight. Brief synopsis: Couple break down and book into dodgy motel. They decide to watch some videos which have been left in the room. They discover the films are snuff videos and that they are filmed in the very room they are staying in and that they are… Continue reading

Went to see a great little British film last night. All about an allotment plot in the North, and how all the old boys react when a group of immigrants are given plots on their site. There were no Oscar winning performances, it was just a nice little film about normal folk. 7/10 Kx Continue reading

Stayed up watching this film until nearly 1am last night as I was still buzzing after college (even k stayed awake!). I have seen it before but every time I see it I enjoy it even more. Its a story about John Sullivan a policeman, who discovers his dads old ham radio and begins transmitting.… Continue reading

Great story about a young lad called Shaun who is taken in by a gang of skinheads. Its all fun until “combo” who is a National Front supporter and has just been released from prison persuades Shaun and some other members of the gang to join him in racist attacks. The acting is superb, particularly… Continue reading

Good sci-fi/thriller with Denzel Washington doing time travel. Most surreal moment is when Denzel is driving a hummer wearing a helmet that allows him to see back in time and he is chasing a car that was there 4 days 6 hours ago! 7/10 Continue reading

Good film but way way too long. Fincher has done a great job of capturing the time and the acting is very good particularly Mark Ruffalo as the police detective Dave Toschi. But the section of the film where Robert Graysmith (Jake Gyllenhaal) conducts his own investigation just drags on for ever. I almost lost… Continue reading

Very good character led story. The cinematography was excellent and I really liked the mood and feel of this film. The film also includes a really funny cynical narration on some parts of the film which emphasised the characters. 8/10 Continue reading

Excellent film, a really good gripping story. A brilliant performance by Carice van Houten who plays the central character Rachel Steinn. 9/10 Continue reading

Had the Corkys over for a Movie night on Saturday and we all enjoyed this film. I think I would like to watch it again sometime as subtitled films are bit hard to follow after you’ve had a couple of beers and some wine… 7/10 Continue reading

Not so good, in fact quite rubbish. I am giving it 4/10 and thats for a great cgi sequence when the sandman comes to life. Not even watching Kirsten Dunst for a couple of hours could improve this film for me. Continue reading

Very good. Helen Mirren was very good but I think Michael Sheen as Tony Blair deserved more recognition for his performance. 7/10 Continue reading

Yawn, forgettable. Can’t even be bothered to mark it. Continue reading

Very very good one of the best sci-fi’s we’ve seen for a long time. The film looks superb, I was a bit frustrated with Danny Boyles direction in the action scenes. I would have preffered to see some longer shots rather than loads of short close up shots. Despite that it still gets 9/10 N.B… Continue reading

s’alright 6/10 Continue reading

Brilliant French thriller. Very tense, no doubt we’ll see the American remake soon but they will never be able to capture the mood and atmosphere of European films. It was great to see Gerard Depardieu and Daniel Auteuil starring in a film together again. I must dig out Jean de Florette. 8/10 Went to see… Continue reading

Great production, although I think the director spent too much time perfecting his long shots and creating a world of the future and forgot to focus on the story. A missed oppurtunity it could have been a lot better. The world was plunging into chaos but it was never explained why. Was it because there… Continue reading

Very very funny! Loved the point break scene. 8/10 Continue reading
