Us is the latest film from writer/director Jordan Peele and it comes after his huge success with 2017’s Get Out, a film which was praised by all those big-name critics who just wanted to get their brands on the poster, even though it was a less-than-average effort, and also ripping off a number of films […]

Domino is a new movie from Brian De Palma, a man who rarely puts a foot wrong, so how come this film, which boasts the credentials of starring Nikolaj Coster-Waldau and Guy Pearce get a rating of 4.4/10 on IMDB? Cops Christian (Coster-Waldau – Headhunters) and Lars (Søren Malling – Borgen) are on the trail […]

Is everybody IN? Is EVERYBODY in? Because my review of The Doors: The Final Cut is about to begin! Nearly 20 years after he died, Oliver Stone sought to make a film about the rapid rise and heavy fall of Jim Morrison, the formation of The Doors, his relationship with Pamela Courson (Meg Ryan) and […]

Lords Of Chaos centres around Norwegian Black Metal ’90s band Mayhem, the brainchild of guitarist Euronymous (Rory Culkin, above, and brother of Macauley) and he’s playing a young man who goes from his late teens onwards, even though the actor was almost 30 at the time of filming, but he certainly looks like he can […]

Ray And Liz is a fly-on-the-wall drama that looked brilliant in the trailer, but didn’t quite equal the sum of its parts. This film doesn’t just sit in one timeframe, and chops and changes between the two, so of the couple, we begin with an older Ray (Patrick Romer), who’s hard-drinking and chain-smoking his way […]
Weird Science is one of my all-time favourite ’80s comedies, and one of many times when the late-great writer/direcor John Hughes hit all the right notes, even though I didn’t realised until now that this was based on a comic book (like every other film made today!), most likely because the comic book’s writers were […]

Sixteen Candles is one of those John Hughes ’80s comedies I saw at the time, but haven’t seen in a long time, and I never knew there was an extended version before this disc was announced for release. It’s Samantha’s (Molly Ringwald) 16th birthday, and everyone’s forgotten. Or have they? Maybe. Either way, it’s also […]

Border stars Eva Melander as Tina, a border customs officer, similar to those I’ve been watching a lot of on Pick TV’s Stop Search Seize where, if you try and get one over Bruce Heller as you walk through the airport, he’ll snap your neck with a mere look! Well, perhaps NOT as similar, since […]

FM feels like the kind of movie where, if it was being made today, there’d be enough scope to turn it into a full series on Netflix. Another radio station is trying to bribe their way in to this one – QSky Radio, so they can fill it with over-commercialisation, but it would compromise the […]

Fighting With My Family didn’t look like it was going to win me over from the trailer, but I like to check out as many films as I can, so did it flex its muscle in the ring? (Oo-er, missus!) It tells the true story of a wrestling family as they vent their spleens in […]
