Alien Vs. Predator 2: Requiem Blu-Ray Review
Many sci-fi fans (myself included) got quite excited at the prospect of an alien vs predator franchise after the alien skull could be seen in the predator ship at the end of Predator 2. Fourteen years after the release of that film, Paul W.S. Anderson brought us the first instalment in the Alien vs Predator [...]

Just recevied some news about the upcoming release of Tropic Thunder. I somehow managed to miss this at the cinema, even though I really wanted to see it so this is the biggest relese of the year so far for me. The trailer looked excellent, just hope the rest of the film can live up [...]

Most foreign language films don’t do much for me, in fact with the exception of nightwatch I don’t think that there has been a foreign language movie that I have enjoyed for many a year, however I caught this trailer the other day and it seemed to draw me in. Let the right one in [...]

It only seems like yesterday that I first heard that Daniel Craig was going to be the new Bond. I have to admit to going to IMDB to find who the hell he was (I hadn’t and still haven’t seen Layer Cake). The only one of his previous films I seem to remember seeing was [...]
Learn more...Rambo, Blu-Ray Review
When you think of a Rambo film you think of a pumped up Sylvester Stallone shooting from the hip, dodging bullets left right and centre whilst killing and entire army by himself. Unfortunately this view of the character is left over from the sequels to the original First Blood. If we return the roots of [...]
Learn more...Wanted, Blu-Ray Review
Wanted is a film loosely based on the comic book series, by Mark Millar, of the same name. Apparently Universal were looking for a comic book film adaptation that would be an R rating (R – Restricted, may contain very strong language or strong sexual content/innuendo, strong explicit nudity, strong violence and gore, or strong [...]
Learn more...Hancock, Blu-Ray Review
I have to admit to watching the trailers for Hancock when it was released at the cinema and slavering with anticipation. A drunk incompetent super-hero just sounded like a fantastic comedy concept and as a fan of Will Smith back in his Fresh Prince days, I know that he can do a good turn at [...]

It’s been many a year since I’ve seen this film, so I wasn’t really sure what to expect. I’d imagined that I would find it all a little bit immature now that I’m a grown up 30 something (yeah right). I’d also seen all the comments about Spielberg’s changes to the film and I wondered [...]
Learn more...Pineapple Express, Blu-Ray Review
Pineapple express, you might think is a bit of a strange title for a film. It might conjure up images of trains made from fruit slipping into the night, or a desperate race against time to get the pineapple harvest to market. What you probably wouldn’t imagine is a strange, but brilliant, buddy movie centered on smoking dope.
Dale Denton (Seth Rogen) is 26, spends his days driving around town, getting changed into one of many disguises to trick people into admitting their identity so he can serve them with legal papers. Occasionally he gets in touch with his 18 year old, high school, girlfriend but mainly he combines this job with listening to talk radio and smoking joints.
The only other person in Dale’s life that we’re introduced to is his drug dealer, Saul (played by James Franco). On his latest trip to score some weed, Saul makes an effort to move their relationship on form supply and demand to friendship. He sells Dale some newly acquired ‘superweed’ called pineapple express. While trying it out some male bonding happens and a new friendship is born.

I love a good horror film but I think it is very difficult to be truly original within the genre. The Unborn is not something that I have heard of on any grapevine and there isn’t really any information to be gained about is quality in who made the film as Director David Goyer wrote [...]
