    Review Avengers Assemble (2012)

    It gets the right balance of action, humor, character and awesome visuals. Arguably, one of the best ever superhero films.

    Review Firestarter (1984)

    Effects-laden movie with a political subtext has a fantastic cast but not much in the way of suspense. There’s also little emotive connection, as it’s hard to root for the fiery, pint-sized protagonist when she’s blowing up anyone and everyone in her wake. A great excuse for some awesome stunt...

    Review Murder on the Orient Express (2017)

    I don't really watch much TV or any TV movies (apart from a few of the outstanding shows). I just stick to film. Have to draw the line somewhere!!:emoji_nerd:

    Review Murder on the Orient Express (2017)

    Hmmm, I suppose. Hopefully they'll put a fresh spin on it and it's not starchy Oscar-bait.

    Review Murder on the Orient Express (2017)

    I think because it's a murder mystery, and the reveal is so unpredictable Because it's a murder mystery, and the reveal is so surprising, it'll take away from the remake's overall impact (knowing how it ends). No?

    Review Murder on the Orient Express (2017)

    Cheers Doc. That cast is unbelievable. Do you know who's in the Ingrid Bergman role, by any chance. I'm guessing it's Dench; could be serious Oscar-bait.

    Review Milla Jovovich

    Loved her in THE FIFTH ELEMENT. She's way better than those RESIDENT EVIL films.

    Review Murder on the Orient Express (2017)

    I know this may sound like a dumb question, but, I'm assuming that the 'reveal' will be the same as the original?? The reason I ask, is because I thought the twist was really good in the original. Little point in watching it, if you've seen the first film (if reveal is the same).

    Review Jeepers Creepers 2 (2003)

    Like the original, this has its moments with a few genuine, intermittent scares. Because it plays mostly for laughs, though, it comes across like a camp, tongue-in-cheek B movie (not necessarily a bad thing!).

    Review Jeepers Creepers (2001)

    Tense, well-executed horror that keeps its audience guessing for the first hour. It then descends into a gleefully wild gorefest that’s preposterous even by slasher movie standards.

    Review The Crow (1994)

    It's a violent, dark, visually arresting film, given added impact and allure due to the on-set tragedy. The revenge storyline is familiar and often hokey but there’s atmosphere and style to spare with a brooding, somber tone offset by striking production design and a suitable heavy metal soundtrack.

    Review The Beatles

    I regard A HARD DAY'S NIGHT as one of the best films of its time. Really captures the essence of the band and the era

    Review Inhumans (2017)

    That's a terrible photo!!

    Review David Fincher

    I'd say he tries to stay well clear of anyone that's 'high maintenance' or with emotional baggage. Rooney Mara had a difficult shoot on DRAGON TATTOO, but look at her reward- an Oscar nomination for Best Actress.

    Fun The Last Movie That You Watched?

    I saw this recently, too. It's like the antithesis of ALL THE PRESIDENT'S MEN! Melinda Dillon is especially good in a heart-breaking role.

    Review David Fincher

    I think he's a genius, and one of the best living film directors; should've won an Oscar for THE SOCIAL NETWORK.

    Fun Your Top 5 Horror Movies

    It's not a horror film, but THE KILLER INSIDE ME gets very very nasty. Poor Jessica Alba, and that lovely face:emoji_expressionless:

    Review The Exorcist (1973)

    Quite simply, this film is a complete assault on the senses, bringing the horror genre to new levels. Classic.

    Review Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (2002)

    This is very similar to the first film with lots of visual flair, stunning special effects plus a slightly darker tone. The long running time is still unwarranted though and the narrative is sometimes clumsy. Branagh is a lively addition as the irritating Gilderoy Lockhart.
