Loveless is a film that, at the start, tells an intensely strong tale of a relationship’s break-up, and if, as a child, you’ve been through the same situation, it really resonates. What’s causing the split? Neither Zhenya (Maryana Spivak) nor Boris (Aleksey Rozin) is entirely blameless, but these two parents are so wrapped up in […]
The Defiant Ones does its best for race relations when the van containing a bunch of convicts, including John ‘Joker’ Jackson (Tony Curtis) and Noah Cullen (Sidney Poitier), crashes off road and the pair go on the run. Conflicting themes come up at that point, since not only does the crash involve a toy truck […]
Welcome To Curiosity centres around a serial killer on the loose called Lee Hunting. The cops are on the hunt, and, within 90 minutes, this will also take in four stories that cross over each other. The plot’s fairly standard stuff – good guys, bad guys, double-crossing, and a shoot-out where someone jumps over a […]
Onrush is a racer I looked at in its Beta form, a few weeks back, and now it’s here in all its glory, with several modes including Superstar, which is as close to a campaign mode as we’re going to get. All you need to know is that you’re on blue team, and you’re vs […]
Bobby Robson: More Than A Manager centres around the former England football manager, but while the film lasts 99 minutes, the late, great man says at the start, “I remember everything. How long have you got(?)” Beginning in 1995, he talks about gonig to see the doctor about his sinuses, but how this turned out […]
Ozark Season 2 is just two months away, and I didn’t think we’d get the second season so soon, but the first one was so popular after word spread, and it took off like a rocket.
Ozark Season 1 had good guys and bad guys* (*and girls, too, in this age of equality), and it doesn’t matter which side of the law you’re on, if you thought this was a simple case of “good always triumphs over evil”, think again. It’s NEVER that clear cut, and that’s what keeps you hooked over all ten episodes…
Movie Charts UK and US week ending June 17th 2018 are as follows:
This week, there are FOUR new films out for you to choose from: Diane Kruger seeks revenge in In The Fade, ‘Mrs Sting’ – aka Trudie Styler – makes her directorial debut with Freak Show, the answers may or may not be found through Kissing Candice, and Hollywood runs out of ideas again with a remake of Goldie Hawn’s Overboard.
Oceans 8 was covered in last week’s round-up, as it was released on Monday this week.
Han Solo sequels – well, at the end of last month, I called it. And now, it’s been proved I’m right. Check out my vlog below.
Terminator 6 is due out next year, and after the godawful sequel/reboot crap that was Terminator Genisys – which had a nice idea in what Genisys was all about, but as for linking it in with Terminator, and everything to do with John Connor and rehashing Terminator 2, NO, just NO!
But, the plus with No.6, is that Linda Hamilton is coming back!
If anything can save the series, it’s her.
When it comes to choosing a theme for a slot game, there are many avenues that developers can take. Some choose from general themes, such as Atlantis, Greek mythology, or Ancient Egypt to evoke the right emotions, while others base the game around celebrities or pop culture, such as rock stars and reality TV programmes. But, one of the most successful themes for slot games is when they are based on movies. Here are three of the best slot machine games based on movies.
Creed II: Yes, here we go again. The first one wasn’t a patch on the Rocky movies, even Rocky V – although for me, that was better than Rocky Balboa!
Sylvester Stallone continues to top up his pension, since the plot is again putting him tutoring the son of Apollo Creed, Adonis Creed (Michael B Jordan), and who’s he going up against this time? Viktor Drago (Florian Munteanu), the son of Ivan Drago (Dolph Lundgren). Yes, we’re skipping straight from Rocky to Rocky IV.
Nobody’s Fool centres around a woman who gets released from prison and reunites with her sister, who discovers she is in an online relationship with a man that may be “catfishing” her. Or is he genuine? Who cares since, sadly, this is yet another piece of junk from Tyler Perry, and another film with a black woman with an attitude. That trope has been so done to death.
In the mum role, Whoopi Goldberg clearly needs the money, these days.
Little Women 2018: Yes, Louise May Alcott‘s novel is back again on the big screen, and the excuse this time is that it’s 150th anniversary. The last time this graced our screens was in 1994 with Winona Ryder, so that was almost 125 years. It looks utterly puke-inducing.
This is a modern retelling, we’re told, as we follow the lives of four sisters – Meg, Jo, Beth, and Amy March – detailing their passage from childhood to womanhood. Despite harsh times, they cling to optimism, and as they mature, they face blossoming ambitions and relationships, as well as tragedy, while maintaining their unbreakable bond as sisters.
Unfriended: Dark Web is the sequel to 2015’s Unfriended, which I didn’t bother with, as it looked complete junk, and it tells the story about a teen who comes into possession of a new laptop, and finds that it may have been stolen. He discovers the previous owner may be watching every move he makes and will do anything to get it back.
Watching this trailer, it just looks like utter rubbish.
