Themes On A Christmas Carol – Blackadder’s Christmas Carol (1988)
I know that a lot of people outside of the UK only think of Mr Bean when they hear of Rowan Atkinson but, trust me, he is far funnier than that character. As has been alluded to many times, I am getting on a bit and can remember him in Not The Nine O’Clock News…

Indie Movie Review – Echoes Of The Past (2021)
—
Let me get something straight right from the start. Echoes Of The Past was quite hard work. Not because it was badly made or acted but because it was based on a true story that was one of the most appalling examples of humanity or, more accurately, the lack of it: The Kalavryta Massacre (Σφαγή…

Indie Movie Review – The Pilot: A Battle For Survival/Летчик (2021)
Last week I got to review my first ever Kazakh film (Sweetie, You Won’t Believe It/Жаным, ты не поверишь!); both as a viewer and as a reviewer. I said something about previously thinking of foreign films coming from either Europe or the Far East. Getting one from somewhere in between was a bit of a…

Is there anything extra during the end credits of Dog?

There are extras during the end credits of Dog. At the very end of the credits is an on-screen message: in memory of LuLu. LuLu is not a true story but is based on Channing Tatum’s relationship with a dog he rescued in 2008 named LuLu. You can read more in the movie review. The credits…

Movie Review – Dog
The movie Dog explores how war veterans, including dogs, struggle to cope with life after serving. Dog isn’t the feel-good comedy that the trailers make it out to be; at the same time, it’s not dark and depressing throughout. I would hazard to call Dog a gritty-real movie, but take that with a grain of salt because I’ve not served in…

Indie Movie Review – Sweetie, You Won’t Believe It/Жаным, ты не поверишь! (2020)
—
When I think of foreign films, I tend to think of either European or Oriental. For Europe it used to be mainly French or Italian but recently I’ve been watching more Danish films thanks to my Mads Mikkelsen obsession. The Far East was mainly Kurosawa or Kung Fu films but Korea has started making a…

Movie Review – Death on the Nile
—
Really disappointing, especially as I liked Kenneth Branagh’s Murder on the Orient Express (2017) so very much. As in Orient, Death on the Nile is fabulously scenic and lush, with a great cast that seems to be trying to make a better movie out of this. Maybe at two hours and seven minutes, the movie is just too long…

Movie Review – Marry Me
—
What a fun, heartfelt movie. I’ve always enjoyed J Lo’s movies and this one doesn’t disappoint. The music was great and the acting was terrific. Owen Wilson played his role perfectly and the chemistry between the two was spot on. I loved the supporting cast, they gave me a warm fuzzy feeling. Sarah Silverman added…
