Review: “Darkness Falls”
"Darkness Falls" isn't even worth a video rental let alone the big screen treatment its getting. The lacklustre but similar "Wes Craven Presents: They"...
Review: “Win a Date with Tad Hamilton”
A brief, at times funny, run-of-the-mill romantic comedy, 'Tad' is an enjoyable experience guaranteed to give you a smile and drop out of your...
Review: “The Butterfly Effect”
A surprisingly engrossing and dark tale of a man changing his past, "Butterfly" bases itself on an admittedly ridiculous premise of time jumping and...
Review: “Enigma”
There's was concern a while ago that comparisons would be drawn between this and "U-571". Now while both do deal with the German "Enigma"...
Review: “Play it to the Bone”
This low-budget road...I wouldn't use the term comedy, is a disappointing but on occasion half-decent flick about boxing. The plot is paper thin, the...
Review: “Are We There Yet?”
Think "Home Alone" on wheels minus the charm and you've pretty much pegged this latest Ice Cube comedy, a depressingly routine one-gag comedy about...
Review: “The Gift”
"The Gift" is a thriller, and by that I mean there's a good amount of suspense that actually works. I found myself jumping in...
Review: “Assault on Precinct 13”
The idea of remaking a John Carpenter movie seems almost sacrilegious. Oh sure the guy is no Coppola or Scorsese, but in the...
Review: “National Security”
A truly inane and flat action comedy, "National Security" joins "What's The Worse that Could Happen" and "Black Knight" as yet another piss stain...
Review: “Torque”
Extreme sports action movies all follow the same principle. Start by mixing a bunch of briskly edited chase/stunt sequences around a bad "Miami Vice"-esque...
Review: “Along Came Polly”
Ben Stiller is becoming the new Martin Lawrence it seems - for every one film of his that's clever or funny comes five others...
Review: “Varsity Blues”
Guys will love the few brief flashes of female nudity which come as a welcome return when you consider how nudity & sex free...
Review: “In Dreams”
Some of the best films of the 90's have been serial killer films. From the completely faultless masterpiece that is "The Silence of...
Ice Cube for “Torque”
It might be winter in Los Angeles, but Ice Cube arrives for our interview in traditional T-shirt, exuding genuine warmth that remains the one-time...
Review: “Supernova”
The film which nearly sent MGM bankrupt and has gone through so many edits it isn't funny has resulted in an average movie. In...
Review: “Racing Stripes”
Ten years ago, the talking animal effects of "Babe" were eye opening. Today they're so old hat that no-one cares anymore, yet studios still...
Review: “Elektra”
Just when you thought comic book adaptations had outlived their usefulness, along comes a film like "Elektra" to hammer that final nail into the...
Review: “Coach Carter”
We've all seen this story many times before whether it be "Remember the Titans", "Dangerous Minds", "Varsity Blues", "Hoosiers", etc. Troubled kids in a...
Gary Oldman for “Batman Begins” (On-Set)
As police Lieutenant James Gordon, actor Gary Oldman is perfectly cast. It feels as though his role in this film fits nicely between...
Christian Bale for “Batman Begins” (On-Set)
Christian Bale enters the room. Looking far removed from his decimated character in THE MACHINIST (Bale famously lost 60lbs for his role in that...
Review: “Kangaroo Jack”
Some films you can tell from just the premise or a few seconds of footage that they're going to be shockers, and the majority...
Review: “Just Married”
An awkward and woefully unfunny comedy, "Just Married" tries to grab laughs mostly out of people hitting each other in the nose more than...
Review: “Chasing Liberty”
Essentially a teen American redux of "Roman Holiday", the Mandy Moore rom-com is lacking both laughs and sincerity despite some likeable leads and picturesque...
Review: “White Noise”
As effectively chilly as it is silly, "White Noise" is far from what you would call a smart or compelling thriller. Still, the whole...
Review: “Orange County”
Despite some good intentions and a decent coming-of-age story, 'Orange' is sadly bogged down by lacklustre jokes, poorly utilised celebrity cameos galore and decent...
Review: “Impostor”
Originally to be one of three short films that composed the abandoned "Alien Love Triangle" project, "Impostor" was redone and reshot to add an...
Paul Weitz for “In Good Company”
Paul Weitz may have changed Hollywood's film culture with his American Pie, co-directed by brother Chris, but his later films show no similarity with...
Don Cheadle for “Hotel Rwanda”
This may well be Don Cheadle's year, but as huge as Ocean's 12 is at the box office, critics are raving over the actor's...
Joel Schumacher for “The Phantom of the Opera”
It was Joel Schumacher's seminal horror classic The Lost Boys that initially convinced Andrew Lloyd Webber that he would be his ideal director on...
Minnie Driver for “The Phantom of the Opera”
Looking elegant in a New York hotel room, Minnie Driver, who gives a scene-stealing performance in Phantom of the Opera, is usually coy about...
