Kinoteka logo

As stated in the description of the new book ‘Polish Cinema Now!’, published to coincide with the 9th annual edition of the Kinoteka Polish Film Festival, Polish cinema of the past twenty years, made without state control of production after the fall of communism, is paradoxically much less well known than their cinema of the earlier [...]

PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN: ON STRANGER TIDES - Sam Clafin & Astrid Bergès-Frisbey

Stitch Kingdom have gotten their hands on these rather nice new images and character descriptions from the fourth instalment of the Disney / Jerry Bruckheimer movie, Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides. I rather like these images as they give us our first look at the sub characters in the movie rather than focusing [...]

SXSW – Insidious Review

Insidious Title

Chilling, and Inventive Austin, TX – James Wan’s latest film, ‘Insidious’ managed to shock, scare and amuse the SXSW film festival audience during a midnight screening at Alamo South Lamar theatre. The story of a family, who begin to experience paranormal activity in their new home, may seem like your typical horror film setup, but [...]

Four New Super Posters Come To The Rescue

Super Poster

One of my biggest regrets from SXSW 2011 was not seeing Rainn Wilson’s new movie, Super. The movie clashed with that of the Aint It Cool News Secret screening where the rumour was that either Captain America, Thor or Super 8 would be screened. Despite Guillermo del Toro, being there (which was indeed rather cool), [...]

Another film I never got to see at SXSW and wish I had is this documentary about Morris Dancing from Fifth Column Films called ‘Way of the Morris’. Our friend James Benson who has written some stories for the site in the past was involved in the project working as a Sound Recordist on the [...]

Island of Death DVD Review

FCD491_IslandofDeath_DVD

One of the original ‘video nasties’, Nico Mastorakis’ Island of Death is now available on UK DVD thanks to the Arrow Video. Long censored the film even has the dubious honour of receiving the following note when it was submitted for re-classification in 2002 (it failed to make it through uncut at that time), The [...]

The Eagle Review

The Eagle 1

Adapted from Rosemary Sutcliff’s much loved novel ‘The Eagle of the Ninth’, The Eagle is a handsomely mounted but flat and unmoving experience in large part because the relationship between Channing Tatum, miscast as a Roman officer on a quest to restore his disgraced father’s reputation, and the always reliable Jamie Bell is simply not interesting [...]

MotoGP 10/11 Review

Moto GP

Poor old Motorbikes, ay? Short of tricycles, they’re the gaming world’s least favourite automotive simulator (let’s face it – you’d definitely play a Unicycle Racer if it existed). But like the annoying, traffic dodging weavers the genre inspires so readily, the MotoGP franchise has long been gathering pace in the unnoticed slipstream of its four-wheeled [...]
