LATEST FILM REVIEWS |
Hot Rod
11:57am Tuesday 11th November 2008
Hot Rod tells the tale of Rod Kimble who is possibly the worlds worst stuntman you will ever see as he sets out to jump 15 school buses on his moped.
Tropic Thunder
1:51pm Friday 26th September 2008
Tropic Thunder contains everything you want and expect from a Ben Stiller film. Admittedly, it’s not as funny as Dodgeball, but it does have a stronger storyline, including subplots and some of it even works on multiple levels.
American Pie
3:48pm Monday 15th September 2008
The story follows a group of teens who plan to lose their virginity before they leave school to start college. The majority of the film is about the teen boys trying to find dates to take to the prom, some more successful than others.
Beowulf
1:56pm Friday 5th September 2008
Beowulf wasn't terrible but niether was it very good and it was only the last ten minutes that seemed to actually impress in any way as Beowulf takes on a dragon.
Wall-E
12:55pm Wednesday 27th August 2008
After the success of The Lion King, Toy Story and Cars just to name a few, it is nothing short of astonishing that Disney can go one better and create the lovable creature Wall-e.
Mamma Mia!
9:16am Saturday 23rd August 2008
This summers biggest talked about stage show come movie was finally released on a Thursday with box office takings soaring as hundreds flooded to see the musical brought to the big screen.
300
10:56am Monday 11th August 2008
A film based on almost entirely on the graphic novel of the same name, 300 is a truly awesome film. With incredible fight scenes, fantastic effects and rock hard heroes, the film appeals greatly to the little Spartan inside all of us.
Sweeney Todd
4:30pm Thursday 31st July 2008
Sweeney Todd is a Tim Burton musical with very distinctive cast and features.
Knocked Up
4:45pm Tuesday 22nd July 2008
I feel Rogen has portrayed an excellent character being the typical man who is still a boy and I can relate to it, as I believe many others can, giving a hilarious performance from start to finish.
