Atomic Blonde centres around undercover MI6 agent Lorraine Broughton (Charlize Theron), who’s sent to Berlin during the Cold War to investigate the murder of a fellow agent, and recover a missing list of double agents… but more interestingly, there’s punching and kicking and swearing aplenty and it looks fantastic. Apparently, she’s the crown jewel of […]

Posted by Dom Robinson on August 13th, 2016
Tale Of Tales is a film from Matteo Garrone, who co-wrote the screenplay, based on 17th century Italian poet Giambattista Basile‘s The Pentamerone, which translates as “The Tale of Tales, or Entertainment for Little Ones”), yet, while on the one hand, some of the visuals are not what you’d want your children to see, on […]

Posted by Dom Robinson on June 12th, 2016
Dad’s Army – the sheer mention of a movie remake of a once-classic TV series was enough to strike fear into the hearts of the nation. Probably more so than the threat of another World War… I never got into the TV series as it was rather past my time, even though many of an […]

Posted by Dom Robinson on May 29th, 2016
Morgan is definitely a character who looks to be a suitable case for treatment in what appears as an intriguing sci-fi thriller starting with this teaser which gives away just enough to tempt you, and stars Kate Mara as a corporate risk-management consultant who has to decide and determine whether or not to terminate an […]
Tale of Tales – Official Trailer #1 – Salma Hayek
Posted by Dom Robinson on April 12th, 2016
Tale of Tales looks to be like a Grimm’s fairytale that goes just a bit further to be as less syrupy-sweet as possible, and so, for me, might actually be worth watching. It’s director Matteo Garrone’s first English-language movie and interweaves three separate story strands bookended by brief bits in which Italians Alba Rohrwacher and […]

Capital Episode 1 – The DVDfever Review
Posted by Dom Robinson on November 24th, 2015
Capital, with Toby Jones in the lead as financial whiz Roger, made me think the title referred to money. It may, since we see property prices increasing as the months go by, but if that’s the case then it’s rather a loose point to hang the title on. Other than that, I would assume it […]
