Heat
Finally watched this film for the first time and I absolutely loved it to bits. As I sat there sweating through the UK heatwave — my apartment being three or four degrees higher — I became lost in this world of LA. It goes without saying that Al Pacino and Robert Deniro are at the…

Friday the 13th: The Final Chapter
The “Final” chapter. Lolz. I enjoyed the film for what it was — the gathering together of a bunch of young people for Jason to pick off one by one.

Friday the 13th part 3
Friday the 13 part 3 was a lot of fun. I didn’t enjoy it quite as much on the whole as I did part 2, but it was still a great ride. And it was great to finally see Jason don his infamous hockey mask. I found myself wondering about the director’s taste when I…

Star Wars episode IX : The Rise of Skywalker
On New Year’s Day I saw my first film of the year — Star Wars : The Rise of Skywalker. In all honesty I was expecting to not like it all that much, mostly due to reviews and comments I’d heard from people I know. But you know what? I really enjoyed it. It was…

Terminator 2 Re-release in 3D
When I was eight years old Terminator 2: Judgement Day was released at the cinema. I remember it vividly. Not because of my going to see it, but because of the evening my parents dropped me off at my Nan’s house whilst they went to watch it. Now, Twenty Six years later, I finally had…

Just finished the horror symphony that is Alien on the big screen. Now time for the balls-out, face-melting metal that is Aliens.
