  • Mission Impossible 4: Cruise's Hunt returns, still scared of explosions

    Movie News | Ali | 10th February 2010

    Tom Cruise has signed on the dotted line to reprise his role as Ethan Hunt in a new Mission: Impossible movie. Note to self: use phrase 'Cruise's Hunt' more often. Because it sounds vaguely dirty.

  • Knight And Day movie trailer

    Movie Trailer | Ali | 23rd December 2009

    Cruise! Cameron! Comedy! A pleasing lack of gun wangs!

  • Tom Cruise's Knight & Day poster has unfortunate gun placement

    Movie News | Ali | 20th December 2009

    Someone snapped a pic of the first poster for Tom Cruise's 2010 action comedy Knight & Day. Something tells me a graphic designer is going to have his iBook confiscated after this debacle.

  • Valkyrie

    Movie Review | Ali | 24th January 2009

    As weird as it may sound, the Nazis have become pantomime villains in recent years. This is not down to a lack of respect - after all, the way to rob an organisation of its power is to remove its credibility and Lord knows there's enough holocaust films to remind us of the Horrors Of What Really Happened.

    It's been seven years since Ben Stiller directed a movie, poking fun at the conceited world of male models in Zoolander. Now he's jabbing at a target closer to home - Hollywood actors and their diva-esque behaviour.

  • Mission: Impossible III

    Movie Review | Ali | 11th July 2006

    "The creative industries can be broken down into four distinct elements: creation, production, distribution and consumption." That's how my 2,000 word essay is looking after approximately three days of pacing, panic attacks and numerous toilet breaks, and it's due in about 16 hours. Cue a phone call from a friend in the indust...

  • War Of The Worlds

    Movie Review | Ali | 3rd July 2005

    I was fully prepared for invasion. Over the last few nights, the sky outside my bedroom window has been lit up by otherworldly forces, raining down thunder and lightning like the Armageddon is just around the corner. Not only that, but the alien entity known as 'Tom Cruise' has begun his slow and steady assault on my televisio...

  • The Last Samurai

    Movie Review | Ali | 3rd January 2005

    So, Tom Cruise's Oscar-vehicle is in town once more and this time, he's hoping to swipe a golden-bonced statuette with The Last Samurai - an epic tale charting the fall of feudal Japan and its eventual westernisation. Thrice nominated (and once unfairly beaten for Born On The 4th Of July), Cruise seemingly carries an air of Osc...
