Rambo IV (or John Rambo) is the latest in the Rambo franchise starring Sylvester Stallone. John Rambo is a Vietnam War veteran that, in his four movies, has probably killed more people than Jack Bauer, Chuck Norris and Pee-Wee Herman combined. Rambo is not known for deep Shakespearian dialogue. He communicates mostly through a series [...]

There are a few new comic based movies coming out in 2008, and if you haven’t seen the trailers for them yet, I think it’s about time you sat down and took them in. The film I’m looking forward to the most this year is Batman: The Dark Knight. At last we have a Batman [...]

A million people have probably said it a million times better than I can, but just in case it hasn’t been made clear to you yet, the film ‘Juno’ is brilliant. Juno is the story of a sixteen year old girl, Juno, played by Ellen Page (Shadowcat/Kitty Pryde from X-Men 3), who discovers that she [...]

I Am Legend. I’ve read the book, so it was time to see the movie. I have to say, it was the films preview that got me interested in the novel initially, and after reading the book, my expectations were high. In the film, Will Smith plays a virologist, Robert Neville, who believes that he [...]

From what I’ve read elsewhere, it appears that the producers of the new Incredible Hulk movie, starring Edward Norton, have wisely chosen to forget the Ang Lee version of Hulk never happened. If you’ve seen that film, with Eric Bana as Bruce Banner, you’ll know that it’s a smart move. The new film, with Edward [...]

I just got back from the New Years Day screening of Alien vs. Predator: Requiem (AvP-R), and I can tell you without a doubt that the cinema was an excellent way to beat the 40 degree heat today! Being a massive fan of both the Alien and Predator franchises’, I had been itching to see [...]

If you’ve been waiting for the next Batman movie, The Dark Knight, then I’m guessing the 18 July 2008 release date, currently being thrown around, can’t get here quick enough. Based on everything I’ve read and seen, the Dark Knight is set to carry on the grimy gothic vibe established in Batman Begins. The Joker [...]

After a combination of anticipation and hesitation I saw Hitman at the movies on the weekend. The movie follows the exploits of video game legend Agent 47, from the Hitman collection of games. Agent 47 is a highly trained killer for hire. As in the game, Agent 47 has been trained from birth to become [...]

Yesterday I decided to go off and see ’30 days of night’ at the cinema. It’s the latest graphic novel to film adaptation to hit the big screen. In many respects its a straight ahead horror/survival movie. It was kind of like ‘Pitch Black’, cross bred with ‘The Thing’, but with vampires. The film is [...]

The trailers for the Hitman movie have ‘hit’ YouTube. In case you don’t know, Hitman is a series of games that follow the story of Agent 47, a highly sought after hitman, whose very good at his job. Hitman: Blood Money is one of the best games I have played in the past 12 months. [...]

Have you ever experienced that feeling where, after watching a movie or DVD, you find yourself saying, “geez, that was cool!”? Well that pretty much sums up how I felt after watching Afro Samurai. Afro Samurai is one of the coolest anime series I have seen to date. The series follows a samurai named Afro, [...]
