Harold and Kumar Go To Whitecastle (2004)

Go to Whitecastle/Get the munches... Who cares? It's a great stoner film, brill cast and awesome moments. The perfect start to the Trilogy. 5/5

Salvation Boulevard (2011)

Wacky religious film with Bond. Started off funny and quirky but ended lame and boring. 2/5

Iron Man (2008)

Amazing, one of my favourite films of all time. Robert Downey Jr is superb, the story is superb and I'll never get tired of watching Iron Man. 5/5

Iron Man 3 (2013) [Cinema]

The perfect end to the perfect Trilogy (including Avengers), the film itself doesn't contain as much action as I would have hoped but nevertheless an awesome film. Tony steals the show as always. Perfect 5/5

Sister Act (1992)

Love it, it's a great entertaining feel good film. Never get tired of watching it 4/5

Rock of Ages (2012)


Loved this film... maybe I shoulden't but I don't care... the story is simple, small town girl moves to the big city... meets a city boy... sound familar? that's because it's very similar to the lyrics of Don't Stop Belivin'.

The film has nailed that feed good factor and has you singing along.  I was surprised how many song's I knew as I would openly admit that I don't know much about Rock music.

Tom Cruse is ace, plays a famous rocker as you would expect a famous rocker of the 80s to be.  Russell Brand is quite funny too but it felt like he was left to the sidelines, something I'm not used to seeing of the typical loud Brand.  I'm still not sure why he had a brummy accent?

My favorite film this year... but it's only April and we still have Iron Man 3, Man of Steel and Star Trek.  I Imagine that it won't be my favorite film this year for very long. 5/5

Tower Heist (2011)

I like this film, it's a good story with a half decent cast. Eddie Murphy is funny once again and there's a Gold Ferrari.. What's not to love? 4/5

Fantastic Four (2005)

After Nip/Tuck, Dr Cristian Troy left California for New York. He set up the Von Doom facility and became a power mad metal psycho, not much has changed then from Nip/Tuck apart from the metal bit.

I do like Fantastic Four as it holds sentimental value, I saw it the week it opened at a Cinema in New York. The story isn't that bad either and the Special FX haven't dated that much considering its been 8 years.

The scenes of Flame Boy flying around Manhattan are awesome, but the film lacks something, I'm just not sure what... 4/5

Rise Of The Planet Of The Apes (2011)


What a brilliant film! I've never really been that fussed about watching this but I was wrong. The story is awesome and a perfect start to what would inevitably become the prequel to the Charlton Heston story. 5/5

Premium Rush (2012)

Enjoyed it, simple story with a couple of great actors. The street graphics were cool but I won't remember the film in a week 3/5

The Next Karate Kid (1994)

Why oh why oh why didn't I read my last review before watching it again! Shockingly awful 1/5

Shanghai Knights (2003)

Not a bad film, I remember watch this this when it 1st came out 10 years ago and I don't remember it to be as funny as I found it. It has some cheap laughs and typical Jackie Chan action. Worth a watch 3/5

Chronicle (2012)

Great special FX but the story let it down. First half was good but the ending was a let down. It could have been epic. 3/5

Analyze That (2002)

Funny sequel, had some great quotes and De Niro a legend as usual. 3/5

Risky Business (1983)

Enjoyable typical 80s film with Tom Cruse was bearable. Was a good watch. 3/5

Analyze This (1999)

I enjoyed it, I think it's been over 10 years since I've seen it last and I didn't remember a thing about it. Its the perfect warm up to The Sopranos. Bada Bing. 3/5

Jeff, Who Lives At Home (2011)

Surreal and thought provoking film with Marshal from How I met your mother. It's got 3 stories which intertwine with each other. Not bad 3/5

13 Going On 30 (2004)

Chick flick. 3/5

Cloud Atlas (2012) [Cinema]


Simply fantastic. Andy Wachowski has outdone him self and Cloud Atlas could quite possibly be up there with The Matrix. A unique film which does take some getting used to, at first it feels like you can't keep track of all the different stories happening all at the same time, but then you start look forward to the switching of stories, past, present and future.

The film has a great cast and even shows some typical British humour - something that American filmmakers have struggled with in the past.

I loved it and it might even get added to my all time favourite movies list. It's one of those films that you can't stop thinking about, days after you've watched it. 5/5

Avengers: Assemble (2012)

I can never get tired of The Avengers, it's gets better every time I watch it. Superb film one of my faves. Did I mention that the soundtrack is brill too? 5/5

Bloodsport (1988)

Its soooooo cheesy and yet brilliant, I can never get tired of this film. Van Damme is in his prime. Bolo is an awesome bad guy and totally makes this film what it is. OK! USA! 5/5

Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol (2011)

Still cheesy in typical MI style. It's my favourite of all the previous MI films. It's a role that seems to suit Tom Cruse. He should stick to it 3/5

Streetdance 2 (2012)

I enjoyed it, it is what it is, it's a dance movie. The acting is poor the story is simple but the dancing is superb. It's not trying to be anything other than that. 3/5

Limitless (2011)

I'll never ever get sick of Limitless, it's one of my all time favourite films. Bradley Cooper is awesome as usual. 5/5

Link to my previous review

Wreck-it Ralph (2012)

I really enjoyed Wreck It Ralph, it's fun, full of retro games and even a cameo from Zangief. Great film for Kids. 4/5
