Valentines Day [ 2010 ] [ Hits:844 ]
Review: Valentine's Day brings some of the most bipolar emotions to the surface... yes, love is a complex thing. You can have a Valentine's slasher about a bloodthirsty psycho in a mask killing teens for the sheer thrill of it or a Valentine's slusher like the sickly sweet I Hate Valentine's Day starring, directed, written and conceived by Hollywood's favourite Greek (next to Zorba), Nia Vardolos. Either way, there's bound to be carnage on the battlefield of love, whether a masked killer is trying to se...

Review: Once upon a time... Jason Friedberg and Aaron Seltzer got writing credits for Scary Movie. Nevermind that they were credited as 5th and 6th on the list, they've been milking their Scary Movie involvement for nearly a decade with a long list of timely, yet tacky spoof movies such as: Epic Movie, Date Movie, Meet the Spartans, Disaster Movie and now Vampires Suck. Grant they've actually pulled their socks up with this Twilight and vampire-inspired spoof in terms of production values and casting, ...

Vantage Point [ 2008 ] [ Hits:691 ]
Review: The attempted assassination of the U.S. President is told from several viewpoints in Vantage Point.The Bourne franchise and the 24 TV series have revolutionised the political thriller genre. These movies have been given license to thrill, and live for the moment. The Bourne Ultimatum delivered non-stop action from all angles like it was being filmed on every available video recorder perspective including: surveillance, satellite, cellular phone and camcorders. The effect was mesmerising and capt...

Verraaiers (Traitors) [ Hits:757 ]
Review: Verraaiers (Traitors) is the latest drama from director-writer team, Paul Eilers and Salmon de Jager, who previously collaborated on Roepman (Stargazer).

Verraaiers is the story of several men, who decide to protect their families and run the risk of being branded 'cowards' in favour...
