First Time Movie Review – Jingle All The Way
Jingle All The Way is, most definitely, a Christmas film. I know that’s obvious but, with all the “is it or isn’t it” arguments and articles doing the rounds, I thought I’d better make sure everyone’s aware that I’m aware what I’m talking about… for a change! So what’s it about? In short, it’s about Howard…

Christmas Rewatch Review – The Polar Express
—
I wonder if Tom Hanks is held in the high regard that he should be over that side of the pond? Over here actors like Patrick Stewart, Ian McKellen, and Helen Mirren are regarded as national treasures, and there is a genuine feeling of warmth that you get when you hear their voices. This thought…

First View Movie Review – The Muppet Christmas Carol
Maybe it’s a generational thing. I was starting college for the first time when The Muppet Show was first aired. I’ve never seen Sesame Street. Well, not more than the odd clip on TV; enough to be aware of some of the history of the beasts. Throw into the mix the absence of children to have to…

You get what you would expect from Milla Jovovich. There’s some cringe-worthy dialog early in the movie that no actor could make work.…

Movie Review – Fatale
—
Hollywood hit the mark with Fatale. It presents itself with steamy forbidden passion, back stabbing and a plot that keeps you wondering right up to the end on how it will all play out. I was in awe of Hilary Swank’s performance. She exuded sex appeal and followed it up with a brutality that would…

Rewatch Review – Last Christmas
—
A lot of films take their titles from pop songs. They tend to then follow one of three paths. 1, There is nothing to do with the song in the film other than, perhaps, a play of the song part way through, e.g. American Pie, Whiplash, Stand By Me. 2, The song is a pointer to…
