-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 It's getting a bit tiresome seeing one misguided American after another with their cutsie little yellow or red-white-blue ribbons on their outsized SUVs. Yeah, I guess it's the thing to do; maybe part of that whole soccer-mom culture. Unfortunately, the only thing they demonstrate is that the person... more »

Review: Constantine (2005)
|
| |
Apologists aside, most thinking film fans are in agreement that the MATRIX sequels blew, and blew hard. In my mind, the Wachowski brothers made a fatal error in progressively centering the sequels around the pitifully under-imagined Zion, rather than on the groovy, industrial thrash-metal powered, black-leather and sunglasses clad, green-tinged... more »

And there's a good reason for that: the only reason we saw this movie was to go "Oooooh, Aaaaaah," and say "That blowed up real good!" Did anyone really care about the way the movie gave us "Irwin Allen... more »

Retrospective: Alien (1979)
|

'Alien' (1979) A retrospective movie review by Walter Frith 'In space no one can hear you scream'. This is my favourite tagline for a movie. It probably always will be throughout the remainder of my life. Millions of miles away from home. No one to help you. No 911 calls to be made. No one can hear your cries for help. Such is the physical and... more »
