Movie Review | Neil | 25th February 2013
Poor old Park Chan-wook. One minute you're the director of the blistering Sympathy For Mr Vengeance and Oldboy, the next you're the director of I'm A Cyborg, But That's OK and Thirst. What to do to regain your former prowess? The answer, obviously, is to make a new film in a language other than your own, from a script by a Prison Break actor, which on the surface looks like a remake of a beloved Hitchcock classic. What could possibly go wrong?

Ten potential roles for Simon Pegg in Star Wars Episode VII
Movie Feature | Neil | 4th February 2013
Now that J-Jabs is confirmed as director of Star Wars: Episode VII, it seems like a mere formality that at some point his lucky charm from Mission: Impossible III and the Star Treks, Simon Pegg, will be cast in the film. No doubt Jabrams is wondering right now what part Pegg could possibly play. Well, WONDER NO MORE, JABRAMOVITCH!

5 quotes from Michael Winner films that show how much he'll be missed
Movie Feature | Neil | 22nd January 2013
As the movie world mourns director, restaurant critic and stickler for calmness Michael Winner, who died yesterday aged 77, we pluck five lines from his films at random from IMDb's "memorable quotes" pages to demonstrate the gaping hole his death leaves in cinema. Ideally there would have been ten, but after five we needed a shower.

Zero Dark Thirty
Movie Review | Neil | 21st January 2013
If you think your job's difficult, try being a CIA officer on the hunt for the world's least favourite terrorist. If it's not bad enough that your quarry is probably holed up in an anonymous cave in the middle of nowhere, you can barely enjoy your lunch break without something exploding all over you and you have to be across some of the world's most baffling jargon. So next time your PC point blank refuses to communicate with the office printer, think yourself lucky you're not involved in a black bag operation at angels two zero AGL with only three mikes left before you're completely winchester.
