The Dark Knight Poster

Everyone here at HeyUGuys has a skill. Mine (I think!?) is bringing people together, networking, general managing of the site and doing the odd bit of news. One thing I very much struggle with is writing reviews. I can go into a cinema and say I like a movie or don’t like a movie but [...]

It is primarily the story of the hunt for a mole within the Secret [...]

Over the past few months, we here at HeyUGuys have offered up a number of arguments in defense of underestimated filmmakers, their flawed films and the trends that haunt Hollywood even to this day.

New clip from Roland Emmerich’s Anonymous

Anonymous clip

Billed as a political thriller in tights Roland Emmerich is taking a step back from blowing up worlds to blowing our minds as he sets out the premise that Shakespeare not only never wrote any of the plays credited to him, but also never existed. Blimey. Anonymous has an exceptional cast in Rhys Ifans, Xavier [...]

This may be an exercise in futility, or at least an attempt to distill down a real wealth of material into a fairly artificial concept, however in honour of the Star Wars franchise finally making its way onto Blu-ray, here are my considered nominations for the best set pieces, one per film, of the whole [...]

The long awaited big screen adaptation of John Le Carre’s seminal spy novel Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy is released in UK cinemas this Friday, the 16th of September.

I finally get to meet Mark Hamill!

I guess like many people of my age Mark Hamill has been an almost mythical figure to me in that he played Luke Skywalker in Star Wars, the film that virtually every boy I knew of my age wanted to see. It was the film that saw my 12 year-old self in a queue outside [...]

30 minutes or less poster

The trailer looked good enough but my expectations has been set fairly low by early comments about 30 Minutes or Less, but I am happy to report I completely disagreed with them. Although admittedly not the best comedy of the summer, it will surpass your expectations and be exactly what it’s advertised as; Jesse Eisenberg [...]
