Song For Marion DVD and Blu-ray Release Review *****

Cert PG | 90 mins

This is an amazing film, 5 stars of glorious British feel-good factor.
Song For Marion is written and directed by Paul Andrew Williams (The Cottage, Cherry Tree Lane) and it is an emotional roller-coaster from start to finish.
It tells the story of Arthur (Terence Stamp – The Adjustment Bureau, Yes Man), who is a proper grumpy old man, grumpier even than Victor Meldrew. Shy and…more

The Fall DVD and Blu-ray Release Review **---

Cert 15 | 292 mins

This is very tricky, 5 stars up until the last minute, then down to 2 stars in the blink of an eye.
Created by Allan Cubitt (The Boys Are Back, Prime Suspect 2), The Fall is an extremely gritty crime drama, set in Belfast, starring Gillian Anderson (The X Files, The Last King of Scotland) as the detective superintendent brought in…more

Chasing Ice DVD and Blu-ray Release Review *****

Cert 12 | 76 mins

This is a most impressive feat. 5 stars almost doesn’t seem enough for the amount of work that went into the making of this incredible documentary.
Chasing Ice follows the work of James Balog,  an American photographer who specializes in capturing the relationships and interactions between humans and the planet on which we live.
During his work for National Geographic, he began to realize that…more

I Give It A Year DVD and Blu-ray Release Review *****

Cert 15 | 97 mins

Proper British genius this one, 4.5 stars.
I Give It A Year is written (screenplay) and directed by Dan Mazer (Bruno, Borat) and is an extremely refreshing take on what has become a rather tedious genre, the “rom-com”.
Rather than endless dithering as to who will get together with who, will they, won’t they, this film starts with the wedding and watches…more

The Long Riders Blu-ray Review ****-

Cert 15 | 95 mins

3.5 Star of Crisp Western.
This is a class film shot in a way that pays homage to the Younger / James gang. Rather than the usual portrayal of Jesse James and Cole Younger in other big Westerns.
It follows the exploits of Cole, Jim and Bob Younger (David, Keith and Robert Carradine) Jesse and Frank James (James and Stacy Keach) with…more

Gone in 60 Seconds 1974 Blu-ray review *****

Cert 12 | 105 mins

4.5 Stars of high octane thrills and spills
That’s if your a petrol head, otherwise this is just a glimpse into the fashions of 1974.
This is the H.B.Halicki (The Junckman 1982) classic chase movie that inspired the 2000 Nicholas Cage, Angelina Jolie remake.
H.B.Haliki directs and also takes the staring role as Maindrian Pace who by day is an Insurance Investigator but…more

Bait 2D DVD review 2013 ****-

Cert 15 | 93 mins

3.5 Stars of Jaw snapping fun.
This is a film that bites far up the evolutionary chain.
Picture an idyllic scene on the Queensland Gold coast the young and the old enjoying  the sea and surf, the lifeguard paddles out on his board towards a buoy just as a swimmer suddenly disappears, spotted from the beach the shark alarm is sounded, then…more
