Anaconda (Blu-Ray Review)

Anaconda (Blu-Ray Review)

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 one of those [...]

In Cold Blood (Blu-Ray Review)

In Cold Blood (Blu-Ray Review)

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 the [...]

Do The Right Thing 20th Anniversary Blu-Ray Review

Do The Right Thing 20th Anniversary Blu-Ray Review

Well 20 years have gone by, time has passed a lot of us by, but the ever vocal Spike Lee and his creations still stand. 20 years later and we have a Anniversary Blu-Ray review of Do The Right Thing. While I could go on and on about the film, that is not the point [...]

The Silence of the Lambs (Blu-ray Review)

The Silence of the Lambs (Blu-ray Review)

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 her [...]

Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines (Blu-ray Review)

Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines (Blu-ray Review)

Main Feature (1H 49M 6S)
Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines had the unenviable task of following two of the most successful and critically acclaimed Sci-Fi films of all time. Regardless of what this had to offer it was on to a beating from the point of its conception. This is a special effects playground and [...]

Australia (Bluray Review)

Australia (Bluray Review)

Main Feature
I really wasn’t sure how I’d feel about this film. On one hand I’m a fan of Baz Luhrmann’s previous work especially Strictly Ballroom which I found so refreshing all those years ago and still do. On the other hand I’m not a fan of Nicole Kidman’s acting and from early interviews I couldn’t [...]

Gandhi (Bluray Review)

Gandhi (Bluray Review)

Main Feature
This film, based on true events which had a profound effect on the world, needs little introduction. Gandhi is an epic in every sense of the word from its passionate subject matter to its lengthy three hours running time. The Academy Awards in 1982 were taken over by Gandhi fever as the film picked [...]

The House Bunny (Bluray Review)

The House Bunny (Bluray Review)

Main Feature
I must admit that when I first heard of this film the thought which crossed my mind came in two parts: “This looks like one of the worst films ever,” and, “although, Anna Faris is hot”. The House Bunny is very much cast from the same mold as Clueless and, more recently, Mean Girls. [...]

Redbelt (Bluray Review)

Redbelt (Bluray Review)

Main Feature
Being a fan of the UFC and Mixed Martial Arts in general, I was really looking forward to this film. The beginning indicates that Redbelt has a focus on genuine martial arts and this would certainly separate it from the glamour and fantasy of the likes of The Karate Kid and Kickboxer. The basic [...]

The Punisher (Bluray Review)

The Punisher (Bluray Review)

Main Feature
The Punisher is one of my favorite comic-book characters for the simple fact that he is an anti-hero who doesn’t have any super powers. Frank Castle, with his martial arts expertise, incredible physical endurance, and all-round toughness is pretty much Batman minus the fancy dress costume and handy gadgets.
It always amazes me when anyone [...]
