Moon [ 2009 ] [ Hits:844 ]
Review: Moon is the perfect blend of 2001: A Space Odyssey and Solaris, starring Sam Rockwell as Sam Bell with Kevin Spacey as the voice of GERTY. Duncan Jones, aka Zowie Bowie, writes alongside Nathan Parker and directs what will no doubt become a staple entry in the science fiction genre... and not because Ziggy Stardust is his father. Jones in his debut feature film, demonstrates his directorial ability within the confines of a limited budget as Sam Rockwell delivers a powerhouse performance. Moon ha...
Iron Man [ 2008 ] [ Hits:972 ]
Review: Tony Stark (Downey Jr.) is a wealthy weaponry expert and tycoon, who starts to use technology for good after he narrowly escapes armed forces in an armoured suit made from scrap metal. This Iron Man, a story about unlikely heroes. Most people may have heard about this particular superhero, but don’t have much of a back story. The one big difference between Iron Man and most other superheroes is that he’s a self-made man. Now you wouldn’t guess this at first because Tony Stark’s intellige...
Deja Vu [ 2006 ] [ Hits:780 ]
Review: Tony Scott is well-established as a Director in Hollywood. Scott has directed Top Gun, Crimson Tide, Days of Thunder, Enemy of the State, Man on Fire and now Deja Vu. All of these films have been top quality thrillers with a blockbuster cast including greats like Tom Cruise, Will Smith, Gene Hackman and Denzel Washington. The pace is frenetic, the cinematography reinforces the dynamic excitement in his blazing films. His films are similar in proportion and content to Michael Bay’s fare, but ad...
Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen [ 2009 ] [ Hits:988 ]
Review: Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen is the second live-action Transformers movie from Michael Bay, starring rising talents Shia LeBeouf and Megan Fox. Now LeBeouf’s name may evoke images of croissants, French maids and Paris (not Hilton), but the kid’s the real deal. Just watch Disturbia, Eagle Eye, The Greatest Game Ever Played and yes, even Holes! His second-in-command, a Ms Megan Fox, had a breakthrough performance in Transformers and returns for some much-needed sex appeal and several sl...
Doomsday [ 2008 ] [ Hits:717 ]
Review: Doomsday is a cannibalistic film, which feeds on classic action/sci-fi/thrillers from the ’80s and ’90s. Neil Marshall must’ve been inspired by Escape from New York, Mad Max, Highlander, Aliens and 28 Days Later… when he wrote the script for Doomsday. It’s one of those movies that keeps reinventing itself, and the mish-mash of genre in Doomsday is stylish and trashy. Rhona Mitra leads the tirade as Major Eden Sinclair, who’s like Milla Jovovich’s Alice meets Angelina Jolie’s Tomb...
Close Encounters of the Third Kind [ 1977 ] [ Hits:694 ]
Review: Close Encounters of the Third Kind is the film that followed the box office sensation Jaws (1975). Spielberg had made a name for himself, and had stuck his flag down to mark his territory. These were the first steps for the juggernaut of blockbusters, and soon he found even more success with Close Encounters of the Third Kind. CE3K, is a landmark piece of cinematic entertainment. In the opening desert sequence, the subtitles say it’s present day. I was looking for clues to suggest this was not...
Star Trek XI [ 2009 ] [ Hits:655 ]
Review: Star Trek XI breathes new life into the Star Trek franchise, much like Christopher Nolan’s Batman Begins did for Batman. J.J. Abrams takes an even bigger step into the world of Sci-Fi as producer-director of the eleventh Star Trek movie, after films like Cloverfield and Mission: Impossible III. Star Trek XI is a gripping rendition of the early days of Captain James T. Kirk and members of the USS Enterprise. The casting was an important element to the film’s success, paying homage to the clas...
Terminator Salvation [ 2009 ] [ Hits:659 ]
Review: Terminator Salvation is directed by Joseph McGinty Nichol, better known as McG, a music-video-turn-movie-director responsible for the bopping Charlie’s Angels and more mature We Are Marshall. McG has got definite style and knows how to rock the party with some killer action sequences. He’s aided by cult sensation and new Batman, Christian Bale, whose performances are characterised by pop culture undertones and a deep reverence for Hollywood’s finest moments. The Terminator franchise was le...
