Main Feature (1H 29M 20S) Question: Is this one of the worst films ever made? Answer: Quite possibly. Then again, this is possibly also one of the worst films featuring a giant snake. I am truly amazed at this film. I am very rarely left open-jawed and at a loss for words, but this is [...]

Main Feature (2H 14M 29S) This film is based on the Truman Capote novel of the same name. I have not read that novel so for any of you out there who may have read the novel but have yet to see this film, I am unable to provide a comparison. I also believe that [...]

Main Feature (1H 46M 50S) This is one of those films from my childhood which I have fond memories of. I must have watched Roxanne a dozen times as a kid and loved it because of all of the slapstick comedy. I don’t think I’ll ever tire of seeing an idiot get hit in the [...]

Main Feature (1H 47M 46S) Since the first time I first saw this film I have felt that it’s under-rated, not to mention misunderstood.

Main Feature (1H 54M 58S) I am a huge fan of John Carpenter and Jeff Bridges and while I was pretty sure I had seen this movie many years ago I was also confident I had forgotten almost everything about it. Carpenter fails to hit the highs he achieved with other films; the same can [...]

Main Feature (1H 52M 43S) Screenwriter Jenny Lumet does a good job in getting down to basics and providing a believable tale of the classic middle-American dysfunctional family. Natural dialogue is much rarer than it should be and that aspect of this script impressed me far more than the story itself in which nothing much [...]

Main Feature (1H 45M 8S) Twenty five years ago Director Ivan Reitman, with help from writers Dan Aykroyd and Harold Ramis, created one of my childhood favourites, Ghostbusters. I have rarely seen a comedy in which the actors fire off hilarious line after another. The comic timing of Murray, Aykroyd, Ramis, and Moranis in particular [...]

Main Feature (1H 58M 37S) I have seen this film quite a few times and each time I am left with a different overall opinion. I am always left feeling impressed with Anthony Hopkins as Hannibal Lecter but that I prefer the more openly psychotic portrayal from Brian Cox in Manhunter. Jodie Foster, fresh from [...]
