30 Minutes or Less(2011)
"“Non-stop enjoyment from start to end…”"
I’ve got to be honest, when I am warned that a film I am seeing is best described as an ‘action-comedy’, I am usually somewhat of a sceptic. I tend to like my genres separate from one another, as I customarily struggle to find much humour in car chases and explosions. However, 3...
Conan the Barbarian in 3D(2011)
"So much brutality and combat, it lost its sense of direction and managed to avoid the actual plot throughout…"
I’m already a remake cynic. I can’t see the point in the majority of remakes, as they, more often than not, bear far too many similarities to the original feature, and often seem far too gratuitous and just a lazy attempt at filmmaking. Therefore, with the original Conan the Barbarian, featur...
The Inbetweeners Movie(2011)
"“It’s witty, ridiculous and offensive, which is exactly what I was hoping for…”"
It seems that the Inbetweeners Movie has been the subject of mixed reviews. Some people love it, some, quite simply, just don’t get it. However, if you’re a fan of the show, my advice is to ignore the bad reviews and listen solely to the good ones, because if you are a fan, you just c...

Friends with Benefits(2011)
"“It’s a quirky and humorous film highlighting the difficulties in love, sex and relationships amidst the age of social networking…”"
Friends with Benefits is a savvy romantic-comedy, about two friends attempting to have sex without commitment.
Dylan (Justin Timberlake) has moved to New York City from California to begin a new job and career, with the help of the convincing head hunter Jamie (Mila Kunis). The two, who b...
Sucker Punch(2011)
"An action packed fantasy thriller, coupled with an excellent soundtrack that has you gripped from beginning to end."
After managing to go the last few months without even seeing a trailer for the movie Sucker Punch I recently got the privilege of reviewing the recently released Blu-Ray edition of the Zack Snyder directed action/adventure/thriller movie.
Now as I hadn’t seen any trailers for the fi...
