| American Gangster - R | This is a brilliant film, let down only by the DVD Extended version's length of 2hrs 49mins!! Typical Ridley Scott film: well made, well acted and added to that, has a fantastic soundtrack. 8.5/10 | February 23, 2009 | N/A | |||
| Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire - PG-13 | February 23, 2009 | N/A | ||||
| The Untouchables - R | A top, top film - ok, so it embelishes the truth somewhat, but who cares, this is Hollywood. De Niro as first class as Capone - a role he was maybe born to play? | January 13, 2009 | N/A | |||
| Inkheart - PG | I thoroughly enjoyed this film (more than the 3 kids that were with me, I think). I have not read the book, so cannot compare it to that, however, the effects are stunning and the acting brilliant. A must see. | January 13, 2009 | N/A | |||
| Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem (AVP 2) - R | As an addition to either franchise, this film fails miserably. However, as a film in it's own right and a sequel to the first AVP, approached with an open mind, it's a great action film. | September 18, 2008 | N/A | |||
| Bullitt - PG |
A very good film that is famous mainly for the magnificent car chase, but is so much more. The realism is great, the camera angles and direction spot on.... ...And the music...? TOP NOTCH. |

| The Princess Bride - PG | I was extrememly judgemental about this film just because of the title. I have now seen it and thought it was brilliant - all the clichés of fairl tales wrapped up in a very funny film. Thoroughly recommended! | August 1, 2008 | N/A | |||
| Once Upon a Time in America - R | WOW!! What a film! The acting in it is superb and Sergio Leone shows why he was one of the most respected film-makers of his time. The film is brilliantly shot and scripted and very well put together. It's a quite heavy film and rather long, but well worth it. | July 16, 2008 | N/A | |||
| Transformers - PG-13 | A fantastic film that, although the vehicles aren't the same as the toys I played with as a kid, brings to life the magic of those toys/comics/cartoons. The effects are amazing and the humour is not TOO cheesey. A great film, I recommend it. | June 4, 2008 | N/A | |||
| Alien Resurrection - R | Like Alien 3, not a great movie, but it did bring the story to a close quite well. Good action pieces, plenty of gore and a pretty good twist to it. | May 28, 2008 | N/A | |||
| AVP - Alien Vs. Predator - PG-13 | As an addition to either franchise, this film fails miserably. However, as a film in it's own right, approached with an open mind, it's a great action film. | May 27, 2008 | N/A | |||
| Aliens - R | An excellent sequel. Not as terriying as the first, but still a jumpy film. Goes more for the horror aspect as opposed to sci-fi, but that's not necesarily a bad thing. Moves the series on nicely. | May 23, 2008 | N/A | |||
| GoodFellas - R | Top quality performances (as ever) from Liotta, Pesci and De Niro. Aside from the first 2 Godfather films, this has to be the best gangster film of all time. Violent, bloody, at times very funny ("funny how...?") - this film has it all. And to top it all, it's based on a true story! | May 23, 2008 | N/A | |||
| The Godfather, Part II - R | That rarity of a sequel being better than its predecessor. More fine acting from Pacino, as well as a superb (and Oscar-winning) performance from Robert De Niro. | May 21, 2008 | N/A | |||
| The Godfather - R | A near perfect film. Eclipsed only by its sequel. Excellent performances from Duval, Caan and especially Brando and Pacino. Coppola's direction ensures this film is timeless. | May 21, 2008 | N/A | |||
| Alien 3 - R | This was a good film, not great, but good. What disappointed me the most was the alien itself and the way the effects, at times, seem tacky. (Esp when the alien was in the tunnels at the end - you could tell it was superimposed onto the film) | May 21, 2008 | N/A | |||
