‘Coffee and Kareem’ (2020) Review
‘Coffee and Kareem’ (2020) Review: Weak Tea. I’ll be honest, I never really gave too much attention to Netflix films. It’s an old fashioned notion, but I could never shake the perception that they were released on streaming services because they weren’t good enough to be released in cinemas. That’s
‘The Last Thing He Wanted’ (2020) Review
‘The Last Thing He Wanted’ (2020) Review: The Long Letdown. As the cinemas continue to be closed and new movie releases remain retired, streaming platforms have had to fill the gap. This week, I caught up with one of the newer Netflix only releases that had everything going for it
‘Bloodshot’ (2020) Review
‘Bloodshot’ (2020) Review: Bloodshot: The Movie: The Video Game. An actor’s association with a part can be so severe, that they cease having a separate identity altogether. Robert Downey Jr may as well be billionaire superhero Tony Stark, and Vin Diesel has been Domonic Toretto for the last 2 decades.
‘Onward’ (2020) Review
‘Onward’ (2020) Review: My Magic Brother The world of ‘Onward’ is the familiar mixed with fantasy. On the one hand you have all the usual signs of modern day city living, but on the other, the creatures often seen only in the books of Tolkein. It’s a world where magic
‘The Invisible Man’ (2020) Review
‘The Invisible Man’ (2020) Review: A Clear Classic 2018 saw the release of an amazing action film called ‘Upgrade’. Initially I reviewed it as being “some of the most imaginative, fun and wildly expressive” action I’d seen in a long time. Sadly, since ‘Upgrade’ there hasn’t been anything to quite
‘Sonic The Hedgehog’ (2020) Review
‘Sonic The Hedgehog’ (2020) Review: My Friend Sonic Movie trailers are a funny thing. They’re meant to get you hyped, but there’s a balance to making a good one. Show too much and you ruin the movie. Show too little, and there’s nothing to get excited about. Show your character
‘Birds of Prey (and the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn)’ (2020) Review
‘Birds Of Prey (and the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn)’ (2020) Review: The Merc With Make-Up I think Harley Quinn just became my favourite superhero. This isn’t exactly a new development. The character has been a cult favourite since her first appearance on the Batman Animated Series, all the
‘Dolittle’ (2020) Review
‘Dolittle’ (2019) Review: Talking To No One 2020 is not even a month in and we already have not only one of the worst movies of the year, but a strong contender for a spot on the worst of decade list. Yet unlike so many films as bad as this
‘1917’ (2019) Review
‘1917’ (2019) Review: A Walk Through Hell From the moment I first saw the trailer for Sam Mendes’ 1917, I was intrigued. In it, the main character is running towards the camera and suddenly the film is cropped to only be seen through the text “1917”. It was a neat
‘Bad Boys For Life’ (2020) Review
‘Bad Boys For Life’ (2020) Review: Ride Till I Can’t No More In the 25 years it’s existed, I’ve never seen a film from the ‘Bad Boys’ series. If you asked me the names of the characters, I would have said “Fresh Prince & Martin”. Still, even with my limited
