American Pie (Series) Review
Since 1999 the jokes have gotten cruder, the scenarios more ludicrous and the boobs more plastic. To prepare myself for the release of American Pie: Reunion, I took a look at the first three cinematic films (and the first straight-to-DVD spin off, unfortunately). Consequently, I’ve had the soundtrack on repeat in my head.
The Fall Review
After loving Lee Pace in the delightful Pushing Daisies, Kieran (from the Movie Talking podcasts) recommended and lent to me The Fall. Promising to be incredibly beautiful and incredibly imaginative, I had high hopes for Tarsem Singh’s fairy tale
Largo Winch 2: The Burma Conspiracy Review
The Burma Conspiracy promises “an explosive, high-octane thriller” – does it deliver such thrills, or does it just try and be something it’s not?
Forces Speciales (Special Forces) Review
Normally I’m all too quick to write off a film about war off as a boys film that I wouldn’t enjoy at all. I was pleasantly surprised with Forces Speciales (Special Forces). Sent in brutal but stunning Afghanistan; Special Forces is much more than the average war film.
Le Repos du Guerrier (Love on a Pillow) Review
As I’m slowly working my way through the 1001 Movies To See Before You Die I’ve been discovering not only classic films, but some of the most renowned actors and actresses of all time.

The Kids Are All Right Review
The Kids Are All Right walked away with numerous accolades when it came out in 2010 and won a soft spot in the hearts of many. Is it really that special? It’s actually really rather remarkable
Never Let Me Go Review
I really enjoyed the novel Never Let Me Go and after seeing One Day I know most movie adaptations are awful.. how does this one fair?
Paranormal Activity Trilogy Review
In celebration of the Hallowe’en season, here’s a run down of arguably the most successful horror franchise of recent times: the Paranormal Activity Trilogy
The Beaver Review
Mel Gibson plays a troubled husband along side Jodie Foster and a beaver hand-puppet in this self claimed “Dramedy”.
Winnie the Pooh Review
Nothing like the slick CGI Disney films we’re used to, Pooh bear takes us back to our childhood with this classically cute new release.
Lars and the Real Girl Review
My first introduction to the wonderful Ryan Gosling; he was just as great a few years ago as he is now
Mary and Max Review
The animation of Mary and Max is a little rough around the edges; a nice change from the CGI movies that regularly grace our screens
Catfish Review
Real or fake, either way this is a brilliant documentary. You’ll think twice about your Facebook list after Catfish
