  • #LFFtovers: The Sessions

    Movie Review | Ali | 22nd October 2012

    No sooner than it had begun (okay, 12 days after it had begun), the London Film Festival closes for another year. Shit. Even though I managed to break my own record by seeing a whopping SEVEN films in competition, I've still managed to emerge into the cold light of day with loads of poorly-written notes for films I've not yet had time to review. Hence these 'LFFtovers': a rather delicious pun that hopefully distracts you from how sloppy I've been in adding my reviews. Shut up. Here's my take on The Sessions.

  • The Moon: a wretched hive of fun and silliness

    Movie Feature | Matt | 1st September 2011

    That glowing spotlight in the sky: it just sits there doing sod all and you don't pay it any notice other than to let it guide you drunkenly home at night while praying that it doesn't fall on you. Well, according to the movies, there's a lot more going on up there than would first appear.

  • Transformers: Dark Of The Moon

    Movie Review | Ali | 28th June 2011

    Though I've still not quite recovered from giving Transformers: Revenge Of The Fallen four stars upon release – both from the kicking I got in the comments and the subsequent shock when I rewatched it in horror on DVD – I am still very much in the broad demographic targeted by Michael Bay and the Transformers franchise: people who like to see shit getting blown up. We are a proud, simple people.

  • Trailer/boner alert: Transformers: Dark Of The Moon

    Movie Trailer | Ali | 30th April 2011

    Revenge Of The Fallen be damned: I'm going to stop pretending I'm not excited about Transformers 3. IT HAS A GIANT ROBOT SNAKE IN IT. How could it possibly fail?

    Films like Paranormal Activity and Cloverfield have made "found footage" a rather lucrative genre, and now the writer of The Fourth Kind wants to take it all the way to the final frontier.
