Having been a comic book fan since I was a kid meant I was exposed to a whole bunch of different characters and teams. Of them all though, the X-Men stood out the most, with Wolverine in particular. So with comic book movies now coming out every year, I’m in heaven, but sadly with already…
It was a cold autumn evening, with the working week behind us, and my girlfriend and I found ourselves wondering what we should do for dinner. As we often do when not really sure what to eat, we just got in the car and drove to an area where we know has food, and we…
Now I’m happy to admit that I had never seen a Godzilla film before tonight, as what can I say, I’m not really into the big monster genre. Why? Well, I guess of all the fantastical things, such as UFO’s, zombies, deadly plagues, earthquakes, volcanoes, or even vampires and werewolf’s, giant monsters just seems, improbable.…
The American is one of those films that just looked and felt European, in both the visual style and the type of story they were telling. Though when a film stars George Clooney you don’t immediately think of European cinema. But when the film is directed by a Dutchman, written by a Britt, based on…

On the second night of our recent long weekend holiday away, we knew what we had to choose from restaurant wise due to the night before when we walked around the various Taupo eating destinations. But one had stuck in my mind more than the rest, and it was purely for nostalgic reasons. That being…
The Lego Movie was one of those films I really wasn’t so sure about when I first heard it was being made. Sure I loved Lego as a kid, and sure all the Lego games that have been made in recent times have rated highly, though I haven’t played them myself, but I still had…
