Film Reviews
Pedro Almodóvar’s films have strong women, transvestites and a lot of feeling.
I believe that some people are just born to do a certain job – or does it just look like that from their Biographies because of their single-minded pursuit of that job? And is it actually the single-mindedness that is necessary for such success?
Burn After Reading
The Coen Brothers (No Country For Old Men) move back to comedy with this funny and rather intelligent piece of ‘espionage’ action. Put very simply, it’s a study of what happens when a lot of really quite stupid people are allowed to run riot with “classified” data and it plays out as a comedy of [...]
Waiting for… Shantaram!

Hellboy Blu-Ray Review
With the arrival of Hellboy 2 in our cinemas today, accompanied by generally very positive reviews, I thought I’d take this opportunity to review the original Hellboy film as we seem to be lacking one around the site (and I won’t get to see The Golden Army until at least the weekend!). First a note [...]
