Twist is billed as a British crime drama and a modern day take on Charles Dickens’ novel Oliver Twist, but what it actually is; is excrement disguised as a movie. Directed by Martin Owen (nope, me neither) and written by a gaggle of unknowns, Twist seems less like […]
Tenet is the latest film from the monumentally overrated writer-director Christopher Nolan. The plot centres around the prevention of World War III and more importantly time-inversion, hence the palindrome title. The story has been kept under wraps with no one disclosing too much information other than this short […]
If like me you recall the book Five Children And It by E. Nesbit or its two adaptations (the ’90s TV version or the ’00s film) you may be surprised to hear that in 2012 there was a pointless literary remake, a book titled Four Children And It […]
Greed is a so-called satirical film written and directed by Michael Winterbottom. The movie is “inspired by” the life of billionaire Sir Philip Green, chairman of the Arcadia Group, a company which owns multiple high street clothing stores in the UK including Burton and Topshop. Green famously bought […]
SPOILERS AHEAD I preface this review with a “spoiler” warning but Fractured isn’t a movie that’s in any way surprising or twist-filled and it can’t therefore be “spoiled”. The film-makers may think they’ve created a hospital-based Flightplan but the way in which this flick is directed and edited, […]
Abbey Lee Kershaw is yet another model who has pussyfooted her way into Hollywood. It seems that the fashion show catwalk leads directly into Tinseltown and anybody with skinny legs and a gaunt face is allowed to strut into it. If like me, you watched Mad Max: Fury […]
Katherine Waterston is a strange-looking actor. With her forgettable looks and repetitive performances, all I can recall after watching a few of her films is her small, dimpled chin and her unvarying acting. If you ever watch one of her movies, you’ll note that Waterston usually looks forlorn […]
Why is Anne Hathaway famous? This perplexing question could keep you awake on many a night with the mental picture of her nightmarishly goggly eyes and Chesire Cat smile embedded in your retinas. This celebrity conundrum is made all the more baffling if you type Hathaway’s name into […]
Every few years a certain rapper becomes the figurehead for the ongoing downfall of Hip-Hop. In the past this honour has been bestowed upon artists such as Lil Wayne and Chief Keef and now this anti-accolade passes to Lil Yachty, a rapper-slash-singer from Atlanta who makes ultra-dumbed-down, auto-tuned, […]
Drake is an example of how mediocre mainstream Hip-Hop has become. This middle class, middle-of-the-road rapper has been annoying us with his poor-ass delivery and whiny, horrisonant voice since the lame “Over” and he’s been inflicting the airwaves with his horrid singing since “Find Your Love”. The track […]
I’m not a fan of nepotism, but once in a blue moon a branch from a famous family tree unexpectedly grows into something special. Nicolas Cage is great example of this, he’s a Coppola relative who’s genuinely talented and his early movies proved he had a flair for […]
If you judge the E! Channel by its programming, you can assume that their entire viewership consists of lame Reality TV-loving, Royal Family-grovelling, celebrity-obsessed, plastic surgery fiends. Thanks to the shows on this channel, the viewers at home have begun to respect falseness; you don’t need talent, you […]
Nepotism is an increasing problem in contemporary society, especially in the world of showbiz. Take a look at the celebrities of today, and you will notice that the vast majority of them are offspring of rich and powerful celebs of yesteryear. My problem with this corruption, is the […]
