Joel Edgerton (Ramses), John Turturro (Seti) and Christian Bale (Moses) in Exodus: Gods and Kings So, watched any Biblical epics lately? I have. I have…
'Mockingjay - Part 1' is as true to the book as it can possibly be, even with the addition of Effie in District 13, but it feels a little bland without Katniss' internal monologues and all the other details that brought flavour to the story.
Do you like grand movies? You'll like this. Do you like space movies? You'll like this. Do you like sciency movies full of mumbo jumbo where the climax hinges on a very weird, non-science concept? You'll LOVE THIS MOVIE.
After watching Frozen a second time whilst on holiday recently, I realised that I've not done a review of the movie, which is surprising. Or…
Marvel's space opera about a ragtag group of aliens plus one human is the massive surprise hit of the summer, and even gone on to be the highest-grossing movie of the year in the U.S., beating stalwart franchises like Transformers, X-Men and Spider-Man.
There are blockbusters, and there are *BLOCKBUSTERS* — the latter arriving in theatres screaming themselves hoarse with whizzbang special effects and ostentatious, ubiquitous publicity campaigns. Transformers: Age of Extinction falls firmly on the extreme end of the latter category, and will probably remain the end point of the scale until Michael Bay tops it, once again, with the untitled-but-practically-guaranteed Transformers 5. For now, it's safe to say I have never seen a louder, more epilepsy-inducing, incoherent film in my life.
Here's another massively overdue review bonanza. Unfortunately, I'm always watching things much faster than I write about them, so sometimes it's stale news by the time I post them.
'X-Men: Days of Future Past' is great, though it couldn't live up to my sky high expectations. Mostly because I hate what they did with younger Erik (Michael Fassbender).
This is going to be long, because I procrastinated on The Amazing Spider-Man 2 review, and now I'm trying to kill two birds with one stone. So bear with me. All the spoilers ahead.
Noah is a visualisation of what Noah's ark and the Flood would be like -- if the storyteller was on acid.
