Latest Film Reviews

  • Saw V (2008)
    Review preview for Saw V

    These movies have become a parody of themselves.

    Death has never been one to keep Jigsaw and his cronies down... sadly.
  • Howard The Duck (1986)
    Review preview for Howard The Duck

    Part of the appeal of Howard is the fact that he is actually physically there and not some ghost who has been photo-shopped in afterwards.

    The misadventures of a cigar-smoking duck after he becomes trapped on Earth.
  • Waterworld (1995)
    Review preview for Waterworld

    Waterworld has a lot going for it. It's everything an action/sci-fi movie should be.

    Gator MacReady · 4 out of 5
    The quest for Dry Land as Kevin Costner blows a sub-Titanic budget.
  • Terminator 3: Rise Of The Machines (2003)
    Review preview for Terminator 3: Rise Of The Machines

    A breathless, relentless thrill-ride that doesn't let up until the shocking, refreshingly downbeat climax.

    Gator MacReady · 4 out of 5
    Third installment in the Terminator franchise has robot Arnie fighting a metallic woman.
  • Hoodwinked (2005)
    The truth about Little Red Riding Hood.
  • The Lives Of The Saints (2006)
    Review preview for The Lives Of The Saints

    It takes ages to get going and there are loads of repetitive scenes.

    A small boy grants wishes, but what should people wish for?
  • 3 Degrees Colder (2005)
    Review preview for 3 Degrees Colder

    It's crud like this that gives foreign language films a bad reputation with the average moviegoer.

    Five years after disappearing, a young man returns to disrupt the lives of those who knew him.
  • Snakes On A Plane (2006)
    Review preview for Snakes On A Plane

    More Zzzzz than Sssss!

    Some snakes. On a plane. What more do you need to know?
  • Clerks II (2006)
    The clerks start life anew in another miserable retail job.
  • Executive Decision (1996)
    Review preview for Executive Decision

    It's highly intense, superbly photographed and expertly edited entertainment.
