Oblivion with Tom Cruise – not as good as it could be
I went to watch Oblivion last night at Cineworld. I’m a big Tom Cruise fan so generally I’ll go and see anything with him in and I like Science Fiction films. A double whammy, then? Well, not so. I don’t want to give the plot away to those who want to watch it so I’ll [...]

The Baftas snub ‘Lincoln’ – not surprising
By Steve Macrie I’m not really surprised that ‘Lincoln’ only picked up one Bafta, last night. I watched it on the plane last week and quite frankly, it’s boring. Yes, everyone acts really well in it and Daniel Day-Lewis is very good, but it is just not interesting. It’s one of those films that you [...]

Supersized Earth BBC – I liked it.
Never mind what the ‘official’ television reviewers thought of Supersized Earth – I thought it was great. According to Keith Watson from the Metro; ‘It’s an insult to our intelligence and Supersized Earth was certainly that, carrying on as if all the ecological challenges facing Earth didn’t exist – many of which can be laid [...]

Drive with Ryan Gosling – it’s good
I watched Drive with Ryan Gosling and Carey Mulligan last night. It ‘s a very good, old fashioned action film. Ryan Gosling, fast becoming the coolest lead in Hollywood, plays a ‘man with no name’, Clint Eastwood type character. Carey Mulligan – who is in Wall Street 2 -Money never sleeps, plays the vulnerable love interest. [...]

‘All good things’ – it’s a good film
I watched ‘All good things’ with Ryan Gosling and Kirsten Dunst last night and I thought it was pretty good. In fact I would give it 7.5 out of 10. Frank Langella was in it. I guess he was pretty good because I didn’t like him (which is what you’re supposed to think – he’s [...]

Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy – it’s OK
It’s not often I get a chance to go to the cinema these days and when I do I like to see a proper cinema film. One that does justice to the scale and event of seeing it on the big screen. So, I tend to go and see the blockbusters and wait for anything [...]

Superior Interiors with Kelly Hoppen – she’s good
I found myself in the unfortunate position of having nothing to watch at all last night. I’m completely out of box sets and I had watched just about everything on SKY Movies. So, I thought I would watch an interior design program on Channel 5. They have some clever people at Channel 5, because they [...]

The best thing about Anne Hathaway’s One Day? Rafe Spall
I had a free night last night and so the wife wanted to go to the cinema. Not a lot on really. I would have watched Apollo 18, Cowboys and Aliens or Super 8, but I was over ruled and I went to see One Day with Anne Hathaway and some fellow called Jim Sturgess. [...]

Top ten TV boxset series ever
I just love TV boxsets. I’ve just finished watching ‘The Wire’. I watched the first three and a half series in fairly quick succession a few years ago. I loved them. But I was watching them with the wife and she got bored half way through the 4th series. Which would of been OK because [...]
