All The Queen’s Men

Wednesday, February 16th, 2005

One of the more interesting artistic choices that the opening indicates, and is repeated throughout the movie, is the lack of subtitles on the sections conducted in german.

Cover-Up

Sunday, January 30th, 2005

In the end, unlike one of Dolph’s later thrillers, Silent Trigger, Cover-Up doesn’t even give us a ludicrously huge gun to provide amusement through the more tepid sections of the film.

Shades

Tuesday, January 25th, 2005

I get the feeling that Shades could have had some kind a second chance. As it is the budget market is the only place you’ll find it for the time being, but it is definitely the kind of discovery that makes it worth digging.

Sworn To Justice

Monday, January 10th, 2005

Outside of her Hong Kong movies Sworn To Justice features some of Rothrock’s best scenes, martial arts wise. The problem is that there are simply not enough of them.

Spotswood

Monday, January 3rd, 2005

Spotswood is a move which takes it’s time to let the characterisations mature, but does so with a reasonable feeling of pace, and it’s a local movie, but one with international appeal.

Raging Angels

Tuesday, December 28th, 2004

I really hope that this movie was paid for by a church somewhere, Ed Wood style. At least in that case you could say that some sort of misguided sense of evangelism was behind it, and write it off as The Passion Of Moloch

Shadow Run

Monday, December 20th, 2004

I have nothing against fat people, or kids, or even fat kids, but the sight of a large-and-in-charge pasty skinned 13 year old huffing his way across the country side in his PE kit and NHS glasses is just not the way to open a movie.

McBain

Monday, December 13th, 2004

Christopher Walken is in this movie. So is Michael Ironside. It has possibly the most ludicrous plane to plane combat scene in cinema history. This movie should be taught in schools.
