The Jungle Book
Movie Review | Matt Looker | 15th April 2016
Will they... will they be singing? The 1967 classic animation is so embedded in the public consciousness that it's difficult to know what to expect from this live-action retelling. What will the life-like animals look like when they talk? Will Mowgli look just like cartoon Mowgli? Will Baloo at any point wear coconut shells and a hula skirt? And what of the songs? Those legendary earworms so infectious that it's going to be hard not to resort to punning references throughout this entire review? Thankfully, Jon Favreau delivers a film that is just as wonderful and captivating as that original classic, and he does so by concentrating on the bare n-... the basics.

That it immediately invokes unfavourable comparisons to Adaptation does not necessarily make Seven Psychopaths a failure, but you do find yourself wishing that McDonagh had the foresight to intentionally ruin his own movie with as much precision as Charlie Kaufman had.

Why I Love... Christopher Walken
Movie Feature | Ali | 14th July 2005
There aren't many actors out there who could put the willies up you just by looking at you, but Christopher Walken is certainly one of the esteemed few - once he has his icy cold death stare fixed on you, you'd best start preparing your funeral arrangements.
