It all starts off fairly innocent, you load up the App Store on your phone and find your way to the games section looking for something to download. There at the top of the chart is something called Flappy Bird, but you don’t bother to download it and give it no thought at all. Then people […]

It […]
Stars: Karen Gillan, Stanley Weber, Iain De Caestecker, Amy Manson, Kate Dickie, Freya Mavor, Gary Lewis, Henry Ian Cusick | Written by David Solomons | Directed by John McKay When I decided to review Not Another Happy Ending the reason for this was pretty obvious, as a Doctor Who fan I was interested in a movie where […]
It’s fair to say that the WWE is going through a tough time right now whether certain events are to do with storylines or actual business issues. With the release of WWE Live in the UK: November 2013 it allows us to look back to Raw and Smackdown back in 2013 before Survivor’s Series and […]
Stars: Steven Seagal, Danny Trejo, Ving Rhames, Bren Foster | Written by Richard Beattie, Michael Black | Directed by Keoni Waxman Steven Seagal has never been a big name in action movies for me. I’ve seen the popular ones he’s in such as the Under Siege movies but he never caught my interest like somebody like […]
Some shows come along and you just can’t help being sceptical about them. Bates Motel Season 1 came with the news that it would be a “modern re-imagining” of the Psycho origin story, putting Norman and his mother in a modern-day setting with an aim of looking at the routes of just what made Norman […]
Last night the WWE held its yearly Royal Rumble event and in many ways it was exactly what you would expect from the wrestling company and there were no real surprises. I tend to like Royal Rumble because of the match itself where thirty of the superstars enter the ring starting with one, then after […]
When it comes to Formula 1 as a sport there are certain rivalries that have added drama to the seasons, even now the egos of the drivers and politics of the car companies can sometimes overshadow the action on the road. Probably the greatest of these rivalries though is way back before some of the […]
Stars: Vin Diesel, Karl Urban, Katee Sackhoff, Dave Bautista, Bokeem Woodbine | Written and Directed by David Twohy If you know your movie trivia (or read IMDB like me) you’ll know that Vin Diesel agreed to the cameo in The Fast and Furious: Tokyo Drift so that he could take control of the Riddick franchise […]
I guess when starting this review of The Tunnel I will have to state something, yes I know it’s a remake of The Bridge and no I’ve not seen it yet but it’s safe to assume I will be watching it in the future. Now we have got our way past that I can say that […]
When looking at the heroes of platform games it’s easy to think of the two champions and kings of the hill, Sonic and Mario, who have managed to live side by side and be accepted as the dual kings of the genre. There have been some pretenders to the crown and many of these have […]
In the United Kingdom, just like any other country, we have our tales of gangsters and crooks that become legendary, not only for the crime but for the characters who took part in them. One of the biggest legends was The Great Train Robbery, which personally I first found out about through Buster starring Phil […]
Stars: Dolph Lundgren, Melanie Zanetti, Matt Doran, David Field, Jen Sung, Lydia Look, Oda Maria, Esteban Cueto, Broadus Mattison | Written and Directed by Christopher Hatton As fans of action movies we have to sit through some truly horrible movies just to enjoy the scenes where a big action hero makes his appearance and makes […]
Last year The Walking Dead Season 1 was named game of the year by many critics and deserved all the praise it got. A game that was shaped by your moral choices it gripped you emotionally and by the time it let go it left you drained but wanting more. Now as The Walking Dead: […]
Adventure Time should be a cartoon that can easily be adapted to a game, many of its episodes tend to fit the very structure of a level in an adventure and the pop culture references provide so much material that it could be the best game ever. This is one of the quandaries that Adventure […]
Stars: Jason Sudeikis, Jennifer Aniston, Emma Roberts, Will Poulter, Ed Helms, Nick Offerman, Kathryn Hahn, Molly Quinn | Written by Bob Fisher, Steve Faber, Sean Anders, John Morris | Directed by Rawson Marshall Thurber Hollywood comedy films tend to follow a formula that is easy to follow. Get a few big stars, find a story that more basic the […]
Stars: Kurt Russell, Dennis Dun, Kim Cattrall, James Hong, Victor Wong, Kate Burton, Donald Li, Carter Wong, James Pax | Written by Gary Goldman, David Z. Weinstein | Directed by John Carpenter When you have favourite movies it always comes as a surprise when you hear that they bombed on original release, even more of a surprise […]
Stars: Jenna Verdicchio, Steve Hope Wynne, Kristina Dargelyte, Rosie Cochrane, David Aldridge, Adam Lewis, Mark Carlisle | Written and Directed by Johnny Johnson When it comes to reviewing independent movies you tend to compensate for the low budget at times and feel that you have to be lenient in your criticism. I’ll admit I’ve done […]
Unless you’ve seen Adventure Time it’s hard to explain exactly what it is, because it’s not just a cartoon, it’s an experience. It’s like your brain has taken a sugar overdose and gone on the craziest hyperactive journey it could think up. When watching Adventure Time: The Complete Season One for review, I found after I’d made […]
Stars: Patrick Wilson, Vera Farmiga, Ron Livingston, Lili Taylor, Shanley Caswell, Hayley McFarland, Joey King, Mackenzie Foy, Kyla Deaver, Sterling Jerins | Written by Chad Hayes, Carey Hayes | Directed by James Wan Can horror movies be scary anymore? This is an interesting question because for the most part horror fans don’t watch horror expecting […]
