John Wick is back! The unstoppable, stylish, killing machine is picking up where the second iteration finished; running for his life with his dog. A very good dog at that. The film makes no attempt at having a slow burn for an introduction. Similarly to the first John Wick, the audience is thrown straight into […]
Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom
The latest installment in the Jurassic franchise has a very apt name. This kingdom has indeed fallen. And boy oh boy does it need to be buried until a more Utopian civilisation can do something with it. Studios are able to make a film memorable, likable or at least decent with one or more pillars […]
The Mummy (1999)
The Mummy. One of my favourite films from the 90’s and one which embodies everything that made the 90’s so flamboyant. The Mummy stars the Internet’s adored hero Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weisz.

I think they’re incredibly mediocre, trying to cater to a very unimaginative audience. So it was with great delight […]
Fifty Shades Freed of this Nightmare
Fifty Shades of Beige The climatic film in the trilogy has been released and finally watched. I was putting off watching the conclusion to this abysmal series, the seconds of my life seemed too valuable. But here we are. A couple of hours of my life spent and while Fifty Shades Freed may have featured […]
Jigsaw 2017: A Truly Horrifying Experience, Literally
It’s the soft reboot that nobody asked for and yet here it is. Jigsaw, a torturesome trap of your own, with the sole intent of subjecting scores of people to brutal agony, making them scream why this has happened to them and when will it end? Being a long time fan of the mediocre series, […]
