Reviewing Movies On The Big Screen

I love nothing more than going to the cinema with The Girlfriend, seating ourselves in a dark corner at the back, and then trying to cop a feel.

Invariably this earns me a sharp jab in the throat, forcing me to swallow blood for the next few hours and making me concentrate on the movie at hand.

These are my reviews, from latest to oldest, which means the oldest ones would be at the bottom, and the latest ones would be at the top. Sorry for stating the obvious, but some of you seem quite slow, so I thought I would spell it out.

Incredible Hulk, The - An enjoyable - if slightly loud - cinematic romp, featuring a green monster with a mushroom haircut. Read More.

Iron Man - Robert Downey Jnr rocks the shit in this Summer blockbuster that you should really make a point of seeing. Read More.

Bucket List, The - An old guy's chick flick (a wrinked dick flick?) about two old guys who enjoy a whirlwind adventure before "kicking the bucket". Read More.

I Am Legend - Will Smith goes into saviour mode again, but it's an enjoyable way to spend a couple of hours on a cold Wednesday evening. Read More.

Jane Austen Book Club - It's a surprisingly enjoyable little chick flick, although the only reason I ended up watching it was because The Girlfriend wanted to punish me. Read More.

Golden Compass, The - A "tartrazine free" Lord of The Rings. A rather dissapointing film adaptation of what is supposed to be a rather brilliant fantasy novel. Read More.

Ratatouille - An eneergetic little animation film short on belly laughs but rich in entertainment. There are worse ways to spend an evening. Read More.

Pirates Of The Caribbean: At World's End - The final triligy to the massively popular franchise is slightly underwhelming, a bit like the time Kanye West threw a show at the Bellville Velodrome. Read More.

King Of Scotland, The - A gripping thriller which made for good viewing, despite one or two really gory scenes. Forrest Whitaker owns the screen with his sheer awesomeness as Idi Amin. Read More.

300 - If you have not watched this, than shame on you. Seriously, you really should give this chest-thumping, action epic a view. Read More.

Babel - Don't watch this. It is shit. Read More.

Departed, The - Irish gangsters, a kick ass plot, strong cast - what more could you ask for. This is probably going to become one of those classics that people talk about for years to come. Read More.

Little Miss Sunshine - Warm, feel-good little flick to watch with the spouse. Read More.

Prestige, The - Anything starring Christian Bale has to be good. Especially if Michael Caine and Wolverine is aso in it. Read More.

Blood Diamond - The story involves a South Africa diamond smuggler / trader so you should definitely give this one a viewing. It's not half bad. Read More.
