Kirk’s Movie Blogspot May 27th
Finally managed to get and see the new Star Trek film at the cinema the other night. Expectations were pretty high after the glowing reviews it seems to have received everywhere. After seeing it, whilst very good, I’m not sure that it quite lived up to those raised expectations. Now don’t get me wrong it’s [...]
Learn more...Along Came Polly, DVD Review
If I were a schoolteacher I would bring John Hamburg (Writer/Director) to the front of the class and slap his legs. Not only has he copied other peoples work, he has failed to add anything original of his own. Every joke, set piece and character in this film has been done a million times.
The cast [...]
Terminator 3, Blu Ray Review
Terminator 3 continues the story of John Connor and his battle against the time travelling machines and against his destiny. It’s also a bit of a divergence for the franchise in a couple of ways. Firstly the director, Jonathan Mostow has the unenviable task of stepping into James Cameron’s shoes. Secondly we have a female [...]

I have not seen a good, newly released horror film in sometime, so when I was asked if I wanted to review B.T.K I jumped at the chance, although I made that choice simply by looking at the cover on Amazon, even though I should know that you shouldn’t judge a book (nor a film) [...]

Seven Pounds reunites Will Smith with both the director (Gabriele Muccino) and producers of The Pursuit of Happiness, to create another personally focused melodrama.
Smith is introduced as IRS agent Ben Thomas, an emotionally troubled man that is on a quest to make a difference to the world and help some truly deserving people. From the [...]
Bride Wars, Blu Ray Review
With some film titles you never really know quite what you’re getting. Bride Wars is not one of those films, it does exactly what it says on the tin! As such, all men out there should know they’re deep in ‘chick flick’ territory here. Not only is it a chick flick, it’s a chick flick [...]
Learn more...Martyrs, Blu Ray Review
Pascal Laugier’s Martyrs is the first ‘real’ horror film in years for one simple reason, it’s horrifying. The French director pulled no punches with this film, and has made possibly one of the most graphic films ever to be released.
Although saying that this isn’t your average slasher film that’s completely void of any plot, this [...]
Marley & Me News
As an Owen Wilson fan Marley & Me was one of those films that I had down on my cinema watch list that I just never found the time to see. It doesn’t seem all that long that it was on at the cinema either, but it’s release on DVD and Blu Ray has just [...]
Learn more...Legally Blondes DVD Review
Legally Blonde and Legally Blonde 2 were both warm and cuddly, cute and fuzzy chick flicks starring Reese Witherspoon as Elle Woods, perky, pink, but ultimately shrewd and intelligent. She proved herself first in law school and then in government. Now we have a third film baring the name, this time called Legally Blondes (it’s [...]

There’s a great new 4-minute trailer up for the upcoming Terminator Salvation. Well worth checking out! There’s also an interesting picture below. Looks like those pesky Terminators are interested in a fast set of wheels! All the better to catch John Connor with (will they have the silky smooth driving style of Jensen though, I [...]
