Review: The Perfection dares to be shocking but doesn't have the chops
Movie Review | Luke Whiston | 4th June 2019
Part of the trouble with being extremely online is you see the entire gamut of opinions all at the same time. Take poor Godzilla for example - as soon as the embargo lifted on King of the Monsters every star rating possible flooded my timeline, which did nothing to help decide whether to see it or not. But for better or worse at least those reviewers arrived at an opinion about the big G's latest romp. Recent Netflix release The Perfection left me so unsure I committed the cardinal sin of reading other site's reviews before sitting down to write my own, so I take a lot of solace that nobody seemed to know what to make of it, because I'll be fucked if I do.

The LEGO Ninjago Movie
Movie Review | Ali Gray | 11th October 2017
Following the world-building original and the Batman-fronted follow-up, the LEGO brand is now so well established in cinematic terms, the spin-offs don't need an additional brand in the title. The first movie in the seemingly boundless LEGO universe without a direct connection to the others, think of The LEGO Ninjago Movie as an expansion kit from the 2014's original pack. (*marketing voice*) The LEGO Ninjago Movie contains new and exciting characters and locations, including ninja weapons, robot mechs and limited edition dragon missile thrower! (Pathos and charm required from original LEGO Movie, not sold separately).

Logan
Movie Review | Ali Gray | 9th March 2017
There only three things that are certain in life: death, taxes and the fact that someone is hard at work writing a sequel to the X-Men movie you're currently watching. Logan, the third Wolverine standalone movie after X-Men Origins: Wolverine and The Wolverine, is the exception: it is the last in its series, because Hugh Jackman says so, and not just because they've run out of ways to name Wolverine movies. Buoyed by the success of 15-rated Deadpool and supported by Jackman's desire to leave a lasting legacy for his defining role, Logan is that rare superhero movie that feels like a full stop rather than a comma. Intentionally distanced from the rest of the X-Men universe and its frankly Gordian timelines, Logan stands alone as the best of the series: a bleak, bold and mold-breaking masterpiece of the genre.

Fury
Movie Review | Ali Gray | 17th October 2014
War movies. Huh. Good God. What are they good for? By now, it feels like every manoeuvre, every landing and every battle of the Second World War has been fought and won or lost on screen. Subsequently, each new WWII movie has to prove its worth before a single shell has been fired or bomb dropped. David Ayer's Fury doesn't even bother pretending it's based on a true story, jumping straight into action with an ambush, a dead Nazi and a knife through the eye socket - and it gets progressively more grim from then on in.

Bats screenwriter tops box-office
Movie News | Ali | 28th October 2012
It's always fun to remember how John Logan - writer of Skyfall and the next two Bond movies - got his start in Hollywood. Some kind of... bats. -

The Three Musketeers is certainly shaping up to be a film
Movie Trailer | Ali | 29th June 2011
Look at this new trailer; it has human actors in it, special effects of some derivation, it even appears to have a script. Yes, Paul WS Anderson's The Three Musketeers will be a film all right.

Trailer: The Three Musketeers looks suitably ridiculous
Movie Trailer | Ali | 27th March 2011
Unsurprisingly, given that it's from the director of the Resident Evil franchise, historical accuracy is not high on the agenda. Sword-sporting gimps and giant airships on the other hand? YO.
