Jason Bourne (2016) Review

Matt Damon is back as amnesiac super spy Jason Bourne along with director Paul Greengrass. Forgetting the bland spin off, The Bourne Legacy, this is the franchise’s first film in almost a decade. Has Bourne lost a step?

London Has Fallen Review

Out now on DVD and Blu-ray, the sequel to 2013’s Olympus Has Fallen performs the old sequel trick of doing exactly what the first film did, only bigger. As is the case with a lot of b-movie action films, you’ll be asking yourself a lot of questions once the credits roll for London Has Fallen. Questions […]

Pixels (2015) Review

“You smell so nice, like the book of Genesis.” I think it’s safe to say I’m really not the biggest fan of Adam Sandler. Considering his recent output, I don’t think anyone with any sense could be. Sandler has been churning out a steady stream of shit since the early days of his film career (in spite of […]

100 Words or Less – The Mechanic

Title – The Mechanic Released – 2011 Director – Simon West Starring – Jason Statham, Ben Foster, Donald Sutherland Review – The Mechanic is much better than it has any right to be. What might seems like a dumb Jason Statham vehicle is actually…well it’s still pretty dumb but it’s a very well-made dumb action film, thanks to two […]

Bone Tomahawk Blu-ray Review

“I know the world’s supposed to be round, but I’m not so sure about this part.” Bone Tomahawk is a horror western, a small subgenre that up until now contained few films of note. I’d say it ends up being about 75% Western, 25% horror but that’s the perfect mix. For for the most part […]

Deadpool (2016) Review

“Now, I’m about to do to you what Limp Bizkit did to music in the late 90s.” Deadpool, as a comic book character, is perhaps a little overrated. Over the past few years it seems he has become absolutely everyone’s favourite character, his face is on everything and you can’t go to a convention without […]

The Nice Guys (2016) Review

“You’re the world’s worst detectives.” The Nice Guys is Shane Black’s latest irreverent buddy movie, starring Ryan Gosling and Russell Crowe as two very different crime solvers drawn into the same mystery. Like nearly all of the previous films Black’s written and/or directed (Lethal Weapon, The Last Boy Scout, The Long Kiss Goodnight, Kiss Kiss Bang […]

¡Three Amigos! Blu-ray review

“You dirt-eating piece of slime, you scum-sucking pig, you son of a motherless goat!” The fact that ¡Three Amigos! was not a hit when it was released in 1986 should come as a surprise. Here we have a film with three of the most loved SNL alum in the starring roles; Steve Martin, Chevy Chase […]

The Trust (2016) Review

“You know the drill.” Here we are once again; staring into the abyss that is Nicolas Cage’s VOD career. The one time Mongolian dinosaur skull owner returns to Vegas, the home of his Oscar winning performance in Leaving Las Vegas for The Trust, a tiny movie with tiny movie star; Elijah Wood. Quite surprisingly, The Trust is pretty good, great even, […]

The Neon Demon Review

Beauty isn’t everything. It’s the only thing. If it wasn’t for a few controversial scenes, I’d argue that The Neon Demon is almost Refn’s most accessible film. Unlike Drive and Only God Forgives there is a lot of dialogue, and less scenes of (the often parodied) staring. It begins simply, a girl wants to make […]
