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. Released in 1985, from the minds of Chris Columbus (Home Alone), Steven Spielberg (Raiders of the Lost Ark) and director Richard Donner (Superman), the tale of friendship, adventure and coming of age had it…
Little Pieces Review
If there are two things British cinema is known for it’s gritty realism and melodrama. With Little Pieces, debutant writer/ director Adam Nelson is clearly striving for the former, but the limitations the film is shackled by regularly push it into melodramatic territory.

Whilst the necessity for a Cinderella remake can certainly be brought into question, the filmmaking talent behind this new version of the Disney classic certainly can’t be. This is classic Kenneth Branagh filmmaking – filled with such pomp, style and scale that it’s hard not to be drawn in.

Agora (2009) Mini Review
“As far as I am aware, your God has not yet proved himself to be more just or more merciful than his predecessors. Is it really just a matter of time before I accept your faith?”
Lucy Review
Luc Besson’s relentless ‘Lucy’ is his best film in over a decade, but is still no classic.
