Movie News | Luke | 19th May 2010

Look, it's late, our pun machine broke down and these lollystick gags aren't helping, no matter how many packs of Mini Milks we get through.

The Ghost

Movie Review | Anna | 18th April 2010

Polanski's first film in five years has been met with a very mixed response. Little White Lies said "the whole movie is actually Polanski being, well, shit." The Guardian, however, considers the movie to be Polanski's "most purely enjoyable film for years." I'm going to have to embrace my inner Lib Dem and come down squarely in the middle with a solid-but-not-mind-blowing three stars.

I Love You Phillip Morris

Movie Review | Rob | 18th March 2010

Oscar nominations for gay cowboys and a win for Sean Penn's gay politician; Hollywood loves homosexuals, as long as it's all kept clean. I Love You Phillip Morris gained massive plaudits at Sundance last year but struggled to find a US distributor comfortable with its somewhat graphic content.

Movie Review | Kirsty | 8th March 2010

Movie Review | Phyllis | 25th November 2009

What happens when you throw Gerard Butler, Jamie Foxx, insinuated rape, gruesome revenge killings and over-the-top action sequences together into one over-long courtroom drama? It isn't hilarity that ensues. It's a goddamn depressing mess.

The Men Who Stare At Goats

Movie Review | Rob | 11th November 2009

Ewan McGregor, you may remember, is actually an actor, and a pretty good one at that. When he's not gallivanting around the world with Charley Boorman on a bike, getting a sore arse, he does occasionally find time to make a film or two.

The Men Who Stare At Goats trailer

Movie Trailer | Ali | 29th August 2009

George Clooney is back in the Middle East, but he's not stealing Kuwaiti bullion or trying to win an Oscar; he's trying to kill a goat with his mind. It's a comedy! Hooray!

Terminator Salvation

Movie Review | Ali | 21st May 2009

Terminator Salvation is explosive - not in the sense that it'll blow your mind, more in the sense that it'll burst your eardrums.
