Independent Film Review – God’s Soldier
—
I don’t know if there’s some sort of tax exemption scheme which means it is cheaper to shoot in South East Asia than anywhere else but this is the second lower budget film set and shot in Thailand I’ve seen this week. I was over there in the nineties and it was nice to see…

Independent Film Review – High Rollers
—
You have to wonder what percentage of the budget for High Rollers was spent on John Travolta. I’m guessing a fairly sizeable chunk. Having said that, it was worth it! I wouldn’t say that I was a huge fan of Mr Travolta but I have seen a fair few of his films and enjoyed them…

—

As the train of live-action money-grabs remakes continues, this one isn’t half bad. It is still a charming story that is good, but not Peak Pixar good. Acting Casting for a live-action like this has to be one of the hardest casting jobs around. There is a very specific look that the actor has to…

Movie Review – Ballerina
—
Writing reviews for C-grade movies is the worst. There’s not much to praise, because, obviously. And there’s not much to hate on, because it wasn’t gawd-aweful. It’s basically the Big Mac of food. It will fill you up if you’re hungry for that sort of thing, but later, you sort of wish you hadn’t eaten…
