There are certain things I cannot and will not abide by, irrespective of threats, posturing and beliefs. One such idea is suggesting I am a poor parent because I would like my daughter watch a PG-rated animated film. Another is the notion that as a fan of something, I should be grateful to not get […]
This summer promises to be quite a bumper occasion for fans of big action blockbusters, with the likes of Captain America: Civil War, Star Trek Beyond, Batman vs Superman (which is actually out very soon), Suicide Squad, and Independence Day: Resurgence. Of all these films, it’s Resurgence I am most intrigued by right now. I […]
Today marks the end of one long wait and the start of another – with The Force Awakens finally here (my review is further down this page, be warned, whilst I won’t be going out of my way to spoil the film, I cannot guarantee no spoilers), I feel it’s a good time to reflect […]
So, we are just over a month from one of the biggest films to hit the cinemas – The Force Awakens! I’m stoked for this now – the final trailer was simply sensational, the TV spots are starting to appear and we’ve even seen a Japanese trailer – one that still doesn’t offer up any […]
The fourth film of Daniel Craig’s interpretation of James Bond (and possibly his last, if the rumour mill is to be believed) is, in this meerkat’s humble opinion, his best outing yet. Having settled in to see the film this morning with my wife, I was quickly drawn into an impressive mix of high octane […]
Yes, it most certainly awakens! This morning the new trailer debuted and I’ll offer up my early thoughts in a mo (I’ve seen it a few times now, but I’ll rewind to when I was getting on the train to go to work). First though, two things – the trailer: Secondly, the poster: Watched it […]
I’m thinking my Lion King review, which keeps getting loads of views right now!
Disney have produced many great and glorious films over the years. Unless you’ve been living under a rock, you’ll have heard of Toy Story, Aladdin, Beauty and the Beast, The Little Mermaid, and of course the classics like Sleeping Beauty, Cinderella, Robin Hood and Peter Pan. With a young daughter, you become very familiar with […]
Hot on the heels of my Terminator review, comes my review of the sequel (the aptly named Terminator 2: Judgement Day). It’s clear from the start of the film that Terminator 2 is a different animal to the first installment. Whereas T1 was made on a relative shoestring (and the technology behind the SFX wasn’t […]
So some 22 years after the original Jurassic Park film reignited the public’s passion for dinosaurs in a huge way, the film franchise revisits its roots – both within the Jurassic Park universe, and thematically, with the fourth installment – Jurassic World. This film has come in (unfairly, in my humble opinion) for criticism of […]
Breached the 70K mark on my wip! Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!
This is just sheer absolute, exquisite beauty.
I have eaten too much pizza.
I don't think it's up to you to decide what's best for women, nor whether or not men can find them attractive...
What’s the most fun way to exercise? I know of a fun way to burn off calories, but I’ll not be sharing the details here! I don’t know if I could call any of the standard means of seeking fitness ‘fun’. I’ve been doing regular sit-ups since the start of April, interspersed with a few […]
