Avengers: Infinity War

Movie Review | Matt Looker | 25th April 2018

In every way that matters â€“ and it matters in every way â€“ Avengers: Infinity War is basically the biggest movie ever. Ten years in the making, producing some of the highest grossing films on record and some of the most recognisable characters and franchises in the world, itâ€™s astonishing that this climactic crossover event combining all of them in one big-screen adventure is even possible.

Movie Review | Ali | 1st March 2006

Ask any young filmgoer who their favourite screenwriter is and they'll probably tell you that - shock horror - the pen of Quentin is what turns them on. Chances are, they're just as big a fan of one Shane Black, the only thing is, they probably don't even know it. Black is the motormouth behind gems like Lethal Weapon and The ...
