Cemetery Without Crosses Remastering Review ****-

Cert 15 | 90 mins | 1969

4 Star Proper Spaghetti Western 
From writer/director/actor Robert Hossein (Death of a Killer) comes an amazing homage to the legendary director of the genre, ‘Spaghetti Westerns’ Sergio Leone (For a Fistful of Dollars, For a Few Dollars More, The Good, The Bad and the Ugly, Once Upon a Time in the West). A French/ Italian collaboration which originally was called…more

The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across the 8th Dimension ***--

Cert 12 | 103 mins | 1984

3 Star. You are in the 1980’s the 19-80’s!
From first time director W.D. Ricchter (Big Trouble in Little China (adaptation)) and the writer Earl Mac Rauch (Wired) comes something slightly strange in what its message is. Although it’s billed as a comedy, it’s like you are not in the loop, nothing is explained and the jokes have no punchlines. To…more

3 Woman, Remastering Review *****

Cert PG | 124 mins | 1977

5 Star Look into the Psyche.
In my opinion this is probably Robert Altman‘s (The Long Goodbye, Nashville) finest work, as he wrote, produced and directed this masterpiece of the human mind and how it interacts with the others it meets.
3 Women is sometimes a surreal art film with strange shots only known to the writer/director and other times a masterpiece…more

Focus Blu-ray Review ****-

Cert 15 | 105 mins | 2015

4 Star Nicky Spurgeon will steal your wallet, your watch and your heart.
The dynamic duo that are Glenn Ficarra and John Requa (Crazy, Stupid, Love) have written and directed this tale of light fingers, love, lies and trust. A fun romp that has a serious side to it in parts but keeps you glued to your seat, it’s popcorn (other…more

Return to Sender Blu-ray Review

Cert 18 | 95 mins | 2015

3 Star Thriller
From a very inexperienced team of writers, Patricia Beauchamp and Joe Gossett and director Fouad Mikati comes a watchable thriller, even if it seems that the whole story is a little contrived, with the character development and the character quirks.
Miranda Wells (Rosamund Pike, Gone Girl) is a young woman working as a nurse in a critical unit within…more

Mona Lisa Blu-ray Restoration *****

Cert 18 | 103 mins | 1986

5 Star Classic Hoskins
Arrow Video brings us a cleaned up (vision and sound) 2K restoration of Neil Jordan‘s (The Crying Game) 1986 masterpiece of relationships, Love, Hate, Power and High-end whoring. This multi award winning film now comes up smelling of roses after the restoration. Hoskins gives probably his finest performances along with Tyson’s acting shining through.
George (Bob Hoskins, The…more
