Brighton Rock DVD Review
It looks great but once you try it you realise it’s actually very bland.
Having grown up on the south coast, I feel well qualified to pass down this judgement on one of her traditional items of confectionery; and this description goes double for the film by the same name.
Biutiful DVD Review
Life isn’t beautiful.
At least this seems to be the overwhelming message Mexican director Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu communicates in his bleak yet powerful feature Biutiful.
Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows Part I DVD Review
Is Harry Potter now a deathly bore?
This is the question that keeps swimming through my mind as I wait for the first part of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows to begin.
South Of The Border DVD Review
Greed is good.
At least that’s what Oliver Stone’s most infamous cinematic incarnation espoused on the streets of wall.
To judge from his love of documenting all things socialist South Of The Border, its probably not a sentiment Stone buys into.
The Girl Who Played With Fire DVD Review
I love playing with fire.
Well, who doesn’t?
Fortunately, thrice weekly therapy sessions for my pyromaniac tendencies are one of the many luxuries afforded to bourgeois sprogs in life.
I’d suggest Lisbeth Salander, the protagonist of The Girl Who Played With Fire, hasn’t enjoyed quite as much exposure to the self indulgent virtues of counselling.
