Egyptian mythology does not deserve this kind of treatment. In a time when mortals lived alongside the ancient Egyptian gods, the god of Air and Wind, Horus, is pitted against his uncle Set after the murder of Osiris, the god king of Egypt. But when Horus is blinded after Set takes his eyes, he must…

Review: The Sword in the Stone
A great look back at one of my most nostalgic Disney classics. While visibly flawed, I can’t help but enjoy it enormously. Disney’s 1963 crack at the legend of King Arthur remains their one and only attempt. Curious considering how involved and incredible and magical the stories and characters can be. The Sword in the…
Review: The Conjuring 2
I can’t help but feel a little disappointed by James Wan’s sequel; it has a little too much Insidious injected into it… Based off a true case performed by the Warrens, a husband and wife team of investigators helping the Church uncover demonic activity, the pairing travel to north London to help a family terrorised by…
Review: The Nice Guys
This comedic crime thriller is a classic experience from writer/director Shane Black. A recommended watch. An alcoholic private investigator is bewildered when he is asked to track down a dead porn star who died mysteriously yet believed to still be alive. During his search he meets an unlicenced investigator with anger management issues, both men…
Review: Warcraft – The Beginning (2D)
Duncan Jones directing this fantastic epic isn’t the only thing that’s totally baffling and confusing with this project! The realm of Azeroth is at peace with its native races working together, but when a barbaric race known as Orcs build a portal between their worlds and invade, alliances must be forged and sides must be…
Trilogy Review: Before Sunrise, Sunset & Midnight
I’ve seen Before Sunrise and Before Sunset before, and I found the first one certainly compelling. But I didn’t realise it was a trilogy now and Joel, a fan of Cinema Cocoa, suggested I review them after guessing my film related picture question correctly over Facebook and Twitter! What I didn’t realise, was how much of…
Banter: Director Garry Marshall is Hilarious
And whoever does the posters for his films: I mean I am all for consistency, but just having rows and columns of famous people as your posters, over and over again? And having a filmography of “holiday titled films”? It cracks me up every time! I’ve no interest in seeing these films, but I totally want…
Review: Green Room
Green Room is one of those rare horrors that does one thing, but does it very well. It is an Eli Roth film, only good. A struggling punk rock band need some gigs and fast. Unfortunately they are directed to a concert at a place ran by Neo-Nazis, and quickly find themselves in a hostage…
Review: Paprika
Paprika is a mind bending visual feast, giving life to the surreal landscape of dreams with a detective story. DC Mini is a device that allows individuals to share dreams, to enter other peoples dreams and even allow others to alter someone’s dreams. It is now used for therapy and medical treatment, but when one…
