I’ve got a massive head cold (the kind that even your teeth hurt) so if this post sounds foggy, you know why! Well, I did in fact read the book by Stieg Larsson, so I feel as thought I’m automatically going to pooh-pooh it. It almost never works. Right? The good: Great casting call on...

There is no other way to say this but Kick Ass kicked some serious ass! It has been a while since I’ve seen a movie that captivated my attention the entire length of the film. This movie has everything from nerds, mobsters, comics, action, sex, blood and yes a little girl with a very naughty...

Wow! What a ride. It took Christopher Nolan ten years to write this script and I can certainly see why. It is intricate to say the least. The inner workings of people subconscious is serious and imaginative stuff to tackle. The visuals in this film are stunning. They are not just used to show off,...

Well I finally did it. Put on a hoody, some jeggins, chucks and went to see Eclipse. I had extraordinarily low expectations as I really did not like New Moon and honestly Eclipse was much better. Edward was still sort of annoyingly broody. There were a few moments that weren’t so bad and Jacob was...
