White House Down

Movie Review | Rob, Matt | 6th September 2013

What are the chances of two 'Die Hard In The White House' films getting released just months apart? And it's always such a shame when this kind of thing happens because, inevitably, whichever film gets released second is the one that suffers. In fact, to Average Joe Cinema, it might even look like this film has COPIED Olympus Has Fallen. Well, let me be the first to assure you that this kind of laziness just doesn't happen in the entertainment industry.

#LFF: Anonymous

Movie Review | Ali | 25th October 2011

No word of a lie mate, I swear. The bloke who directed Godzilla told me.

Movie News | Matt | 13th November 2009

After making the disaster-movie-to-end-all-disaster-movies with 2012, you'd think Roland Emmerich would lay the genre to rest and challenge himself with a rom-com, or even just a music video. But no. Apparently he now wants to make two back-to-back sequels to Independence Day.
