Review: Transformers – The Last Knight
The endurance of this particular fan of the Transformers films has apparently, finally, run out. It is the end. With Optimus Prime travelling out into space looking for his creators, Earth sees the return of Decepticon leader Megatron as well as a planet-sized menace from beyond the solar system. All that can save us is…
Review: Baby Driver
An enjoyable, original heist movie, although with some bumps in the road. A young, unassuming heist getaway driver wants out of the business of crime after falling for a waitress, but his boss and fellow criminals who need his ace driving skills won’t let him go so easily. Baby Driver is the brainchild of writer/director…
Review: The Mummy (2017) (2D)
You’ve probably made up your mind about The Mummy already, but honestly, it a good – and scary – ride! When two US military recon scouts see an opportunity to steal treasure from a village in the Persian gulf, they come across an ancient Egyptian burial ground that is more like a prison than a…
Trilogy Review: The Mummy
Despite The Mummy franchise derives from themes of Life after Death, and that “death is only the beginning”, it has certainly gotten more rotten and dead after each resurrection. Doesn’t spell much hope for Universal Studio’s “Dark Universe” kickstarter The Mummy, the 2017 film starring action hero Tom Cruise… Mostly because fans today covet the…

Review: Wonder Woman
Honestly, this DC comics movie is just too competently edited, it has way too much character depth and development, and the music cues are actually implemented correctly. Plus, it has colours and you can see what’s going on! I am being facetious: Wonder Woman was great! Diana is a princess of the Amazon warriors living on…
Review: Pirates of the Caribbean – Salazar’s Revenge 2D (aka Dead Men Tell No Tales)
Creativity remains in the rotten timber of Salazar’s Revenge, but there’s little passion left in the hollowed out core. Henry Turner seeks to remove the curse that has his father, Will Turner, trapped as the undying captain of the Flying Dutchman, but to do so he needs the trident of Poseidon. Joining him is a…
Review: Colossal
What a unique but strangely awkward experience. Colossal a one-of-a-kind movie. When Gloria, Anne Hathaway, returns to her suburban roots from living in the big city, she not only finds familiar childhood faces but also discovers she is in direct control of a massive monster that materialises in South Korea whenever she enters a play…
Review: King Arthur – Legend of the Sword (2D)
Did Guy Ritchie just out-Snyder Zack Snyder? In a good way? In this retelling of the fabled British legend of King Arthur, when a tyrant sorcerer rules over England he seeks out the last true heir to the throne by testing everyone of a certain age to pull the magical sword Excalibur from the stone…
