This morning we had the chance to sample a little of Guillermo del Toro’s much anticipated Pacific Rim. It was a handful of scenes edited down for this presentation including a skim through the prologue to the film, a couple of scenes from the early part of the film and then an extended look at [...]
Broadchurch is the immensely popular, and some might say surprise, hit TV drama of the year so far with David Tennant and Olivia Colman in the starring roles against a backdrop of gorgeous Dorset scenery and a puzzling death of a young boy in a quiet seaside community. Enter grizzled detective DI Alex Hardy (David [...]
A depressing insight into a poor family in Mexico makes for uneasy if occasionally powerful viewing in Heli, Amat Escalante’s third feature following Sangre in 2005 and Los bastardos in 2008. Heli is named after its central character, a poor young man who works at a local Japanese Automobile factory and lives with his partner, [...]
In childhood the monster that lived under my bed was a shadowy, shape-shifting fear of the unknown. By adulthood that monster had morphed into a more specific beast: insecurity. Will my relationship survive? Is my life, my job, my future, a joke? Who am I, how did I get here? Does anybody care?? Charlie Brooker’s [...]
The phrase alpha male conjures pictures of manly men and beastly beasts doing masculine things in a masculine way. One does not expect an alpha male to nurture, to caretake, or to love. Disneynature’s stunning new feature Chimpanzee tells the story of the exception to that rule. The exhilarating family adventure transports its audience to [...]
In the final moments of JJ Abrams’ Star Trek there was a tangible feeling of excitement. The film ended on a note of extreme anticipation of the journey ahead with the crew settled into their new roles, and we into this new Trek universe. It is a feeling which survives repeat viewings and now that [...]
“Behind their feisty charm lies an amazing character” begins David Tennant’s comforting introduction to the 3 hour penguin-fest of Penguins – Spy in the Huddle which has been “filmed as never before” using a whole range of ingenious technologies and clever camouflaging. Producer/Director John Downer has already made a name for himself with the bird-centered Earthflight [...]
Discussion about the title of a film is not something that generally finds its way into a film review, and with good reason. The title of a film is usually somewhat extraneous to the actual experience of watching the feature and its importance lies outside of the film itself. Much like the marketing that surrounds any production, [...]
What do you love about your local London cinemas? The great selection of films, the seats with legroom or the staff who sneak you free popcorn? Google Local London want to celebrate the best of London by finding out which places you rate or hate. That’s why we’re teaming up with them to give you [...]
Chances are, if you use a tablet or a large smartphone for anything other than stabbing away at twitter all day, you’ll have considered getting a stylus for your device. I bought one shortly after I first discovered Draw Something, and haven’t used it since that fortnight of late-night doodling. Some artists have high-end styluses [...]
Lewis is the original spin-off from the original Inspector Morse detective series which first appeared on UK TV sets in 1987 and starred John Thaw as the complicated and often unconventional detective. After a very successful run the series ended in 2000 with the demise of Inspector Morse in “The Remorseful Day” and that was [...]
Give that man an Oscar! It’s an all too easy call when looking at a film like Flight, and it’s one that should definitely be analysed. You see, in Flight Denzel Washington stars as airline captain William “Whip” Whitaker. He’s an alcoholic he’s a borderline drug addict and he’s an airline pilot. Which is quite a [...]
There was a strange air of mystery surrounding Movie 43 before it was released. It wasn’t screened for critics or given any previews and so nobody was quite sure what to expect once it was unleashed. It turns out the only real mystery surrounding this movie is how the hell anybody managed to convince the [...]
We’ve been here before. In both 1997 and 2001 Morgan Freeman took on the role in two mediocre offerings (Kiss The Girls and Along Came a Spider), the best thing about which (you’ve guessed it) was Freeman himself. This time around The Fast and the Furious director Rob Cohen is on board and has made [...]
For the first time in four years Clint is back in front of the camera, and it’s a performance that’s also notable because it represents the first time since 1993 that he’s acted in a film that he hasn’t directed himself. His participation in long time collaborator Robert Lorenz’s debut feature reportedly came about when [...]
With over 200 films having screened at the 56th London Film Festival in October, it’s nearly impossible to say with genuine certainty what films presented were truly the cream of the entire crop. Yet, by metaphorically placing an ear to the ground (or reading Twitter, perhaps) a picture begins to form of what underwhelmed and what [...]
Jason Becker is a rock legend. A virtuoso shred guitarist who had earned the respect of the industry’s finest and landed the greatest gig on earth by the age of nineteen. Jason Becker is an inspiration: his perseverance and dedication to his craft, in the face of unimaginable adversity, win him new fans every day. [...]
I guess I should point out from the start that I’ve never been the biggest Twilight fan. I’ve not read any of the books and not enjoyed the previous instalments from the franchise thus far (except for the baseball scene in the original movie which I loved - largely due to the fact that it [...]
18-year-old Pauline (AnnaLynne McCord) is a very disturbed teenager, even more so than the average teenager. She even quips at one point though, “I don’t know of a teenager who doesn’t profile as a socio-path…”. Pauline is exactly the kind of child her mother, played with pointed prudishness by Traci Lords, doesn’t want. When presented with this problem child, [...]
The Mentalist was one of the early results of the huge success of Fox’s House MD. The idea of a lead character with a unique set of skills wasn’t, ahem, unique, but it was the intelligence with which it was executed in the Hugh Laurie series that really set the standard. TV is now awash [...]
