LOVE IS ALL YOU NEED (M)

 Sun, 2012-12-16 08:41   A Danish-English production set primarily in Italy, ‘Love Is All You Need’ may not be the most original romantic comedy doing the rounds but it certainly is enjoyable nonetheless.  Dealing with wedding festivities can sometimes give a film license to go overboard but thankfully...

SKYFALL (M)

 Tue, 2012-12-04 09:29 Feeling more like a true successor to ‘Casino Royale’ than the disappointing ‘Quantum of Solace’ does, ‘Skyfall’ may very well be not just one of the finest James Bond instalments yet but one of the best action films we’ve come to see grace our screens in quite some years.  Despite being 23...

END OF WATCH (MA)

 Wed, 2012-11-21 08:41   Writer/director David Ayer seems to have developed a fondness for the LAPD over the course of his career.  His work so far has mainly painted them in a slightly less flattering light with ‘Training Day’ and ‘Street Kings’ focusing on the crooked cop aspect but for ‘End of Watch’ his...

ARBITRAGE (MA)

 Sun, 2012-10-14 16:08 For Robert Miller (Richard Gere) life should be easy.  A Wall Street ‘master’ with a billion dollar sign to his name, he lives a life of luxury with an adoring daughter (Brit Marling) who is aspiring to build her own career not dissimilar to her father, and a loving wife (Susan Sarandon) who’s...

MENTAL (MA)

 Tue, 2012-10-09 08:47 The cinematic reunion of director P.J. Hogan and his ‘Muriel’s Wedding’ starlet in the (then) making Toni Collette was always going to have a lot to live up to.  The aforementioned Aussie comedy became an instant hit with audiences and has developed such a following in the 18 years since its...

KYLIE BACK ON THE BIG SCREEN

Sun, 2013-02-17 19:30     HOLY MOTORS (MA)     Where does one begin with ‘Holy Motors’? Asked by some critics if it is art or lunacy, it’s safe to say this conceptual piece of cinema is both, or neither depending on your interpretation on what unfolds before you.  Its narrative intentionally...

THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN (M)

 Tue, 2012-07-17 09:07   I can understand films from the ‘80s, and to a lesser extent the ‘90s, being prepped for remake treatment but one from 2002? Now you’re pushing it.  Despite the original ‘Spider-Man’ film only being 10 years old, Hollywood thought it was worth rebooting with an entire new team, forgoing... Read more

THE CABIN IN THE WOODS (MA)

 Wed, 2012-06-20 12:30     It’s been a rather long and arduous trek to the big screen for ‘The Cabin in the Woods’, and on first inspection of its credentials you have to wonder why?  Aussie ‘Thor’ star Chris Hemsworth is one of the leads, Drew Goddard (executive producer to such shows as ‘Lost’ and ‘Alias...

REVIEW: Dark Shadows (M)

 Wed, 2012-05-23 09:02 It’s hard to believe that given all their collaborations together Tim Burton and Johnny Depp have never tackled anything vampiric.  With the undead genre starting to lose a little of its bite, it seems  as though the duo are a little late to the party with ‘Dark Shadows’, but then again a...

MOVIE REVIW: THE AVENGERS (M)

 Fri, 2012-04-27 12:26   Ever since Samuel L. Jackson popped up in a brief post-credit sequence in ‘Iron Man’ we’ve known there’s been a plan for an Avengers movie. As each subsequent Marvel film was released (‘Iron Man 2’, ‘The Incredible Hulk’, ‘Thor’, ‘Captain America’) the superhero web was being weaved... Read more
