This year, we have new movies from Arnie, Sly and Willis so it sure feels like I’m in a happy time warp. Admittedly, I was never a fan of Sly and only really have loyalty to Arnie because he was in one of my all time faves, Terminator 2. However, I do aim to watch [...]

Stallone l Willis l Schwarzenegger Plus Statham l Crews l Li l Lundgren l Van Damme and Norris “The world’s greatest action stars return to the big screen in the sequel to box-office smash.” Well you do get what they say on the box. You could add that they are also trying to break [...]

The amazing Spiderman? Surely we’ll be the judge of that! It wasn’t on my must-see list as I didn’t enjoy the last Spiderman I saw – the one where he bought the dark suit and basically went to the dark side – so I’m not in a desperate rush to see this, except there is [...]

I’d never really got into the first two Men in Black films although I know I’ve seen at least one, if not both but couldn’t get tell you anything about them. I know they are entertaining and bursting with one one-liners, as is this third incarnation, released this year some 10 years after MIB2 and [...]

I was hesitant to see this as I didn’t think the makers could pull off that many superheroes in one film. I should preface by saying I love Iron Man, not so much the follow-up and loved Captain America even more. But as I say, it would be difficult to pull this off. With all [...]

This is one of my favourite stories so unless someone I’m unable to abide is on the screen, I’ll always watch. In this case, I don’t know anyone on the screen, except Mr Bloom, although I recognise some faces. I’m pretty sure I saw Jonathan Ross’ face on one of the posters. The movie is [...]

I mainly saw this because it was on at 3.15, a near perfect time for me as far as going to the cinema is concerned and it didn’t have anyone in it that I don’t enjoy watching. Not because I’m a fan of war films in particular. Two striking story lines about this film: · [...]

I’m not a huge fan of either Harrison Ford or Daniel Craig or of alien movies so it’s just the ‘Cowboy’ that got me into see this. That and the absolute silliness I expect. I’m pretty sure I don’t need to explain the plot; it starts promisingly with the sparks about to fly superbly between [...]

Yes I love apes and anything belonging to the Ape family but having watched the TV series as a wide-eyed youngster, the Tim Burton re-make of the 1960s film didn’t entice me into the cinema. When I was in single digits, a human talking from inside an ape costume was still impressive but now, I [...]

Forgot to put this on my Birthday list this year. Not that I desperately need it, I don’t cook and I don’t watch films on DVD, but it’s one of my favourite movies of recent years.
