Russell Brand Hosts VMA’s
Russell Brand hosted the VMA’s last week for MTV - the VMA’s are the music video awards, now I’m unsure if the route that Russell Brand went down well in terms of a great performance with the American public.

No Country For Old Men Blu Ray Review
No Country For Old Men won 4 Oscars. Let’s get that out of the way first. It gave the impossibly talented Joel and Ethan Coen their 2nd, 3rd and 4th Oscars in an already impressive career and introduced Javier Bardem to the world as a pudding-bowl-haircut sporting assassin. It is a quiet film, a thoughtful [...]
Tropic Thunder Review
Tropic Thunder tells the story of a group of actors filming a Vietnam War story; soon they find the action to be far more real than they wanted.
There’s no way around it; Tropic Thunder has the potential to be an incredibly offensive movie if played to the wrong crowd. With Robert Downey Jr. in black-face, [...]
Cocktail in my top 10?
Why did Cocktail with Tom Cruise make my top 10 all time films? OK it’s not a huge blockbuster and many people they think why do you think it’s such an awesome film? In terms of sheer quantity of action, there is none! But to anyone who’s worked in a bar while looking for (to [...]

Russell Brand said in his podcast that he was contacted by Toby McGuire (Spiderman). Russell Brand was contemplating himself being asked to be a Spiderman villain in the new Spiderman [...]
Dexter Season 1 DVD Review
It’s difficult to know where to begin when reviewing a DVD set of a show quite so twisted as Dexter. With Season 2 currently drawing in the viewers on FX and the Region 2 box set of season 1 selling well, it’s clear that Dexter has an audience, as is the news that a third [...]
Quantum of Solace to debut at the BFI London Film Festival
Ok, this may not be a DVD or Movie review per-se (and you can expect more on the upcoming BFI London Film Festival in the coming weeks as I splurge my life savings on tickets to low-budget indie flicks), but it’s well worth a mention.
For the first time, a gala showing of Quantum of Solace [...]
Guy Ritchie’s Best Films
With the release this week of the new Guy Ritchie film RocknRolla, what better time could there be to review his two best known (and generally best) works?
Lock, Stock & Two Smoking Barrels tells the story of a group of lads who end up, to steal a line from Snatch, “making stupid bets with dangerous [...]
Autumn Film Releases
It’s September and that means the start of Autumn (meteorologically speaking), which means the last of the Summer blockbusters should, theoretically at least, be behind us. This means we can start looking forward to Christmas and the traditional overload of plot-heavy Oscar contendors [anyone looking for Best Supporting Actor had better wait til next year, [...]
