Review: Thor: Ragnarok (2017)
Some of you may remember THOR: THE DARK WORLD wasn’t that good. It wasn’t that bad either, but between storytelling falling over itself to cram in more of a certain God of Mischief after the fact and the worst villain … Continue reading
Review: Star Trek Beyond (2016)
Just a few tweaks is all it takes. The simple act of splitting up the crew and making them think their way around impossible situations keeps the plot of STAR TREK BEYOND loose and fun. The script co-written by Simon … Continue reading

Review: Pompeii (2014)
Well, that was disappointing. When it was announced an all-out modern blockbuster was being made based on the devastating eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD, I thought, what could go wrong? You’ve got inbuilt human pathos, the chance to … Continue reading

Review: Guardians of the Galaxy (2014)
It’s good! Marvel’s biggest risk to date (and we really mean that this time) GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY is not only a pleasantly shiny space adventure film with laughs, loveable anti-heroes and fireworks aplenty, but it’s also the most outright … Continue reading

Review: Thor: The Dark World (2013)
As well as all involved have tried to hide it, THOR: THE DARK WORLD feels more than a little fractured. It looks fantastic, and the key players bring their A-game, but the plot veers and lurches alarmingly. Following the events of THE … Continue reading
Guardians of Awesome!
Finally, last night saw the debut footage from maverick director James Gunn’s ambitious Marvel space opera GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY. It looks great, really great. So, what do we have? First a classic set-up for any new character – back to … Continue reading →
