Juno

A sweet and very funny emotionally engaging right of passage movie.

Hitman

tony — Fri, 06 Feb 2009 11:42:07 +0000

At best this is an average assassin action movie, at worst it’s derivative tripe, but it manages to hold its head above water just enough to entertain for 90 minutes.

Shrek the Third

tony — Sun, 31 Aug 2008 18:34:35 +0000

The weak storyline and seen it all before graphics let down the third Shrek film and although it has some decent comic moments it never lives up to the promise of the first two.

AVPR: Aliens vs Predator – Requiem

tony — Sat, 21 Jun 2008 15:36:33 +0000

Terrible movie shot in terrible lighting with terrible post-production resulting in not being able to see anything on screen or care about any of the characters.

I Am Legend

tony — Tue, 03 Jun 2008 10:47:40 +0000

While this generally disappointing film lacks solid structure and suffers from sudden changes in pace it still delivers some exhilarating scenes and good performances, but it will leave you in the lurch at the altar without a week of honeymoon fun to look forward to.

Transformers

tony — Tue, 03 Jun 2008 10:47:06 +0000

A totally engaging and adrenaline fueled summer blockbuster with ‘good enough’ performances from the cast and simply breathtaking special effects, Transformers delivers what it promises as long as you don’t dig too deeply or think too hard about the likelihood of the American Military listening to a couple of teenagers, no matter how ‘hot’ either of them may be (depending on your gender preference).

Die Hard 4.0

tony — Tue, 03 Jun 2008 10:46:39 +0000

Totally formulaic high-tec action movie that relies on the dialog and Willis’ delivery to stand above the crowd which amazingly succeeds giving us a fantastic funny fast paced and memorable cinema experience.

The Bourne Ultimatum

tony — Tue, 03 Jun 2008 10:46:17 +0000

Maintaining the same style and frantic pace of the first two movies, The Bourne Ultimatum provides a satisfying conclusion to the story of Jason Bourne and a slick, full and thrilling cinema experience.

300

tony — Tue, 03 Jun 2008 10:45:58 +0000

This heavily stylised (visually and morally) interpretation of a real historical event (Battle of Thermopylae) packs a visual punch and gives a cracking cinema experience while dividing audiences with its light plot and sparse dialog.
