Ready or Not Movie Review

Little did she know the kind of family she was marrying into but she soon finds out on her wedding night. Observing a long held family tradition, they force her to play a game of hid and seek but this one comes with lethal consequences.   //   What makes the film so much fun is that Grace even with being scared out of her mind never loses her wise cracking sense of humour. She also doesn’t change into a retribution killing machine and spoil all the incremental fun. The ...

Blinded By The Light Movie Review

How a Pakistani boy from Luton (located in the south east of England) becomes enamoured with the musical icon from New Jersey underlines the story. A story very loosely based on the life of Sarfraz Manzoor, a British journalist and broadcaster who wrote the book Greetings from Bury Park.   //   Javed (Viveik Kalra) is a young man torn between two worlds. One side sees him as a dutiful son in a traditional Pakistani family while the other side sees him yearning to be more ...

Check out the new trailer for The Peanut Butter Falcon – in Aussie cinemas January 30

At loose ends since the death his brother, Tyler (LaBeouf) has resorted to stealing the catch of other crab fishermen to survive. At the same time, Zak, a young man with Down syndrome, dreams of life as a professional wrestler. They both soon find themselves on the lam, as Tyler is pursued by a pair of angry fisherman (John Hawkes and Yelawolf), while Zak busts out of his care facility and hightails it from North Carolina toward Florida to find the professional wrestling school of his hero, ...

Zombieland: Double Tap Movie Review

With Double Tap, you have the same core actors, the same director and two of the same screenplay writers but it just doesn’t consistently hit its targets. Adding new cast members doesn’t really enhance things either. Except for Rosario Dawson, whose new character is well written and gets to kick serious ass. //   The script also makes some strange choices in structure with two of the main cast members (Emma Stone and Abigail Breslin) leaving the action after the second reel ...

Check out a special cameo in the new Zombieland: Double Tap Trailer

A decade after Zombieland became a hit film and a cult classic, the lead cast (Woody Harrelson, Jesse Eisenberg, Abigail Breslin, and Emma Stone) have reunited with director Ruben Fleischer (Venom) and the original writers Rhett Reese & Paul Wernick (Deadpool) for Zombieland: Double Tap.   //   In the sequel, written by Rhett Reese & Paul Wernick and Dave Callaham, through comic mayhem that stretches from the White House and through the heartland, these four ...

O Beautiful Night Movie Review

When he runs into Der Tod (English translation - The Death) played by Marko Mandic, this malevolent presence in human form takes him on a journey that is part phantasmagoria and part road trip. Are these events really happening or are they just figments of a bruised psyche. The reality of this is left entirely up to you. //   The dark and unravelling action is intercut with beautiful stills and paintings of mother nature. There is also a female presence with Nina (Vanessa Loibl) ...

Hustlers Movie Review

The women do take advantage of the men but it is done in such a way as to drag all concerned through the gutter. The targets and their platinum cards pay extravagantly for the privilege of their company but the women doing the fleecing are also losing something. //   Jennifer Lopez as the girl’s ringleader, Ramona shows real application to the role and her athleticism is impressive. Her character has a steely core but this resolve is not used for anything even close to noble. ...

Check out this new behind-the-scenes vignette for Zombieland: Double Tap

In the sequel, written by Rhett Reese & Paul Wernick and Dave Callaham, through comic mayhem that stretches from the White House and through the heartland, these four slayers must face off against the many new kinds of zombies that have evolved since the first movie, as well as some new human survivors. But most of all, they have to face the growing pains of their own snarky, makeshift family.   //   Zombieland: Double Tap stars Woody Harrelson, Jesse Eisenberg, and ...

Check out the new trailer for Last Christmas!

Kate (Emilia Clarke) harumphs around London, a bundle of bad decisions accompanied by the jangle of bells on her shoes, another irritating consequence from her job as an elf in a year-round Christmas shop. Tom (Henry Golding) seems too good to be true when he walks into her life and starts to see through so many of Kate’s barriers. As London transforms into the most wonderful time of the year, nothing should work for these two. But sometimes, you gotta let the snow fall where it may, you ...
