A cinematic feat that leaves you in a perpetual state of amazement and wonder of how the film was even pulled off. And let me tell you, Babylon is one of those movies. Most similar to his beloved ...
Keanu Reeves turns 50 this year. With age comes wisdom, I’m told. Perhaps that is why his portrayal as the super lethal John Wick, a former hitman fresh out of retirement, is such a crowd-pleasing good time. Wait? What did I just type? A familiar story that ...
Every single time Keanu Reeves is written off or dismissed, he comes bouncing back with a powerfully charged character. Hell, he even got booed for his performance in Knock Knock. I think I was one of the eight critics who gave him credit for knowing the ...
John Wick is one of those franchises that seemingly came out of nowhere. Keanu Reeves (deservedly) has maintained a level of currency through his lengthy and stellar career, but if we’re to be honest, his star was on the wane when he signed on to the ...
Those troubled by the increasingly predominant role technology has begun to play in the rearing of today’s children should probably stay far, far away from M3GAN. On the other hand, those who want a front row seat to witness how those perceived dangers might actually play themselves ...

In a role he was… ahem, born to play, Nicolas Cage plays Nick Cage in Tom Gormican and Kevin Etten’s The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent, the pair’s earnest love letter to who else but… Nicolas Cage ...
“Everytime we come here, someone has to get topless.” Truly, this one had me at the idea of Kane Hodder butchering more beauties in bikinis, but this slasher is a bit more than just his performance as Goatface. Let’s see, there’s the beautiful location (on Cape Cod in Massachusetts)., an interesting storyline (which begins in the ...
Tom Hanks does grumpy in A Man Called Otto, the American remake of the Oscar-nominated Swedish film called A Man Called Ove from a few years back. Though certainly not the first actor who comes to mind for a role featuring the most cantankerous old man this side of Gran ...
Confession time, Boils and Ghouls! I grew up - even as fat as I was – wanting to be Michael Paré’s cool as a cucumber Tom Cody from Streets of Fire. Most my age wanted to be cracking shit with a bullwhip and making off, just like Indiana Jones, with golden idols and, while I was keen to ...
A swinging sixties marital comedy with the charming Shirley MacLaine and the prim and proper Richard Attenborough? Sure! Why not? It’s an innocent request from the workaholic brasserie manufacturer Robert Blossom ...

I remember distinctly saying to a friend, after viewing Jackson’s R-rated puppet movie, that I ...
