  • Saturday smackdown: Killer Elite 2011 vs The Killer Elite 1975

    Movie Feature | Luke | 25th June 2011

    Kick! Punch! It's all in the mind! Renowned Prince of Subtlety Jason Statham will be exploding all over cinemas this September, in Killer Elite. But it's not the first time the title has seen used, with Sam Peckinpah beating him to it by over 35 years. So which film is the most elitist? There's only one way to find out... fiiiight!

  • Films on TV round-up: stand-up comics and stand-up rows

    TV Feature | Ed Williamson | 12th June 2011

    Angelina Jolie, Robert De Niro, Ray Winstone and Kathy Burke. I know what you're thinking: Bucks Fizz tribute band, right? Wrong. It's this week's weekly round-up of the week's films that we do each week. Weekly. And, arguably, weakly.

  • Limitless

    Movie Review | Rob | 20th March 2011

    You can approach Limitless in one of two ways. Treat it like a psychological, drug-fuelled thriller, or be immature and look at it as the most sensible, subdued superhero film going. No surprises for guessing how I chose to take it...

  • Little Fockers

    Movie Review | Rob | 26th December 2010

    Don't be fooled, the Focker sprogs appear merely as an excuse to make the title sound rude and to fuel a few recycled gags.

    Movie News | Ali | 25th May 2010

    Martin Scorsese is going old school to cast his long-awaited Frank Sinatra biopic: he allegedly wants Al Pacino to play Ol' Blue Eyes, with Bobby De Niro as li'l ol' wine drinker Dean Martin.

  • Why I Hate... Robert De Niro

    Movie Feature | Ali | 13th July 2005

    I've been told it's always good to start with a joke: Q. What's fat, old, rich and rubbish? A. Robert De Niro. Fair enough, it's not funny. But then neither is Robert De Niro. Over the last decade, the once great actor's career has been reduced to a joke, a fluffed punchline that's fallen flat and left only a ringing si...

  • Hide And Seek

    Movie Review | Ali | 5th March 2005

    Perhaps more than any other genre, horror films have the most cliches to avoid. If you're going to try and sustain any sense of tension, the last thing you want is your audience second-guessing everything, completely deflating any suspense you might have created in the process - it doesn't make for a scary movie if you flag eve...
