Welcome, to Jurassic World. A tourist attraction where dinosaurs great and small roam for all to see, where children can poke and prod at baby triceratops, and where everyone seems to have swept the events of Jurassic Park under the rug, along with those of its two sequels. It was never going to end well. Dinosaurs…

Spy Review
Genre movies tend to have an odd tendency of coming in pairs, be it Dante’s Peak and Volcano, The Cave and The Descent or The Illusionist and The Prestige. Sometimes it’s purely coincidence, other times it’s a cheap attempt at cashing in on another film’s success, and rarely do both movies end up being remembered…
Goonies Never Say Die: The Enduring Love For The Goonies
The Goonies is over 30 years old, and yet still as cherished by its fans as much now as it was way back when.

Max Max: Fury Road Review
What a rush! Mad Max Is back, and louder, brasher and crazier than ever. Yes, it’s borderline ridiculous, but boy does it know it. George Miller’s rejuvenation of the long slumbering franchise is a beast, embracing its roots, and the more ‘out there’ elements of its universe, to provide a non-stop, roller coaster ride of…

Spooks: The Greater Good Review
The mere fact that a Spooks film even exists is an achievement in itself. After concluding its TV run on the BBC nearly four years ago after ten seasons, it’s probably fair to say that there wasn’t an audience clamouring for the film to be made. Whilst the series had success in the UK, internationally…
