James Bond Blu-ray Reviews – You Only Live Twice

“I have much, much better. Ninjas” So here we are on You Only Live Twice, otherwise known as “that one where James Bond makes himself look Asian“. This film, like previous entries, is a product of its time. The space race was in full swing and SPECTRE is using this against the two superpowers of […]

James Bond Blu-ray Reviews – Thunderball

“I think he got the point.” What do you think the highest grossing Bond film is? It’s probably Skyfall isn’t it? Well, yes, but Thunderball comes a very close second. When adjusted for inflation, and until Skyfall this was the highest grossing Bond film of all time. And it’s easy to see why; Thunderball is […]

James Bond Blu-ray Reviews – Goldfinger

“You like a close shave, don’t you?” Goldfinger was an important film. This was the film that kicked Bond mania into overdrive and was the movie that helped start the film going public’s love affair with espionage. It’s also remembered fondly by many as the greatest Bond film, and with good reason. Golfinger set the template for Bond […]

James Bond Blu-ray Reviews – From Russia With Love

“Once more unto the breach, dear friends.” Well, this is my first review in this blog’s series of James Bond reviews and what a great, if somewhat underrated film to start on. From Russia With Love is loved by James Bond fans; it’s a true cold war spy thriller, but among casual viewers it might get lost […]

James Bond Blu-ray Reviews – Dr No

“Bond. James Bond.” I love James Bond. James Bond has been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember, we had the collection on VHS and now we’ve upgraded to the Blu-ray collection. It comes in a fancy box and everything. Over the next few weeks we’ll be making our […]

Man of Steel Review (Spoiler free)

“Out there, amongst the stars, he will be free.” I’ll try and keep this review spoiler free and, honestly, there really isn’t that much to spoil. Everyone knows the blueprint of a Superman story, and Man of Steel is sometimes predictable in that regard but if you really don’t want spoilers, turn away now. Man of […]

The Walking Dead Season 3 Review

“In this life now, you kill or you die, or you die and you kill…” Well, it’s over. Season 3 ended. I tried to keep up to date on reviews, but sadly failed towards the end of the series. I blame this solely on my recent signing up to Steam (and spending shit-tons on the […]

The Walking Dead – “Home” and “I Ain’t a Judas”

MAJOR SPOILERS! Ok, so I’ve been getting really behind on these reviews. Because of that, this review will be a review of the last two episodes. “DON’T BE CRAZY JACK!” I hear you all shouting. Well, we’re doing this. The first episode in this double bill is Home and it begins with more crazy Rick! He is again […]

The Walking Dead – “The Suicide King”

Major spoilers! It’s back! Well, it’s been back for a week now but it’s taken me a while to get round to reviewing it. The series returns with perhaps a slower episode than usual but still a great one. A lot has happened between now and the last episode before Christmas, in a TV sense […]

“Django Unchained” Review

What a movie. Seriously. Quentin Tarantino has made another (dare I say..?) masterpiece. Ok, I LOVE nearly anything Quentin Tarantino directs/writes so there was no doubt in my mind that I’d love this film. Let me explain why it’s so good… Firstly the film’s running time is a huge 165 minutes. But I never, ever […]
