Hail, Caesar! is an oxymoronic post card from the Coen brothers. On the one hand, it’s a light-hearted, madcap, send-up of the Golden era Hollywood of the ’50s. Then on the other hand… or wing, it’s also a comic behind-the-curtain examination of studio politics as Capitalist America tried to subvert any hint of Communist ideology […]
Sacha Baron Cohen’s new movie is set to be released this month and we’re giving you the opportunity to see it before everyone else.
Deadpool, “the merc with a mouth”, is a comic book character from Marvel who featured in X-Men Origins: Wolverine. Ryan Reynolds has played a number of superhero characters, but seemed like the only choice for the immoral, over-the-top and juvenile, Deadpool. This is his origins film, an action adventure comedy and sci-fi thriller that could […]
The new full-length trailer for The Jungle Book is out, and whether you’re a fan of the book or not it seems worth giving this a watch.

The only movie I’ve seen about a cat is Garfield and that was truly horrible. I think we have a winner here though.
The Revenant is a gritty survival adventure masquerading as a grim western, which while brutal remains beautiful and spirited. We follow the tale of a frontiersman, whose desire for revenge gives him the strength he needs to carry on after being mauled by a bear and being left for dead by his hunting party in […]
Suicide Squad looks so damn epic, especially since it’s surprisingly set to Queen’s Bohemian Rhapsody.
There is a lot of hype around the Zoolander No.2 movie and this is its best yet.
The Big Short is a film that follows four men, who predicted the impending economic collapse of the U.S. mortgage bond market in the mid-2000s.

Pencil in January 29 because that’s when we’ll get to see this peach on the big screen. Blood, guts and good story telling for days.

It’s not often that a movie demands you go and see it on the big screen, although this follow-up to the 1996 classic does just that.
Usually when Steven Spielberg hops on board things tend to end pretty well, with the first trailer for The BFG looking good.
The Gift is an elegant and unconventional mystery drama thriller that will surprise you. This is a fine production from the mind of Joel Edgerton, who writes, directs and stars.

Ocean Driven: The Chris Bertish Story is an inspiring surf documentary about self-belief, will power and the human spirit. Describing himself as a Waterman, Bertish has been instrumental in getting the film finished over the last 4 years, another achievement in itself, in addition to writing Stoked!, an inspiring story about courage, determination and the power […]
James Bond used to be about cheesy one-liners, full-blown chauvinism, ridiculous spy gadgets and over-the-top espionage action adventure. The franchise was overhauled with Casino Royale, going for a tougher blonde Bond and a deconstruction of 007 as we know it. Daniel Craig has been the poster boy for this modernisation and while it’s become more […]
It’s finally here, the trailer for Zoolander 2 that we’ve all been waiting for. Please don’t be a pile of turd.
Maggie isn’t a traditional zombie movie… it’s more of an art house zombie drama. There are no car chases across a post-apocalyptic America of zombie hordes and for the most part, everything takes place in one location. The pacing is slow, the style is understated to a fault, the focus is on drama and it […]
It looks like characters from one of Pixar’s biggest films are set to keep on swimming, a sequel set to hit our screens next year.
A Walk in the Woods is just like its movie title: breezy and understated.

The Kray twins, Ronnie and Reggie Kray, are two of the most notorious gangsters in history. The English crime bosses operated in the Lower East End of London in the ’50s and ’60s and were involved in armed robberies, racketeering, arson, assaults and murder. It’s surprising that in an age where Guy Ritchie Brit gangster […]
Leo’s new film could be THE one that gets him that little golden statue next year.
A woman is raped every 26 seconds in South Africa. That statistic doesn’t carry enough weight… even if you get Charlize Theron to follow it up with “Real Men Don’t Rape”. This isn’t surprising when you consider we’re living in a culture, where sexual harassment and coercion are viewed as normal male behaviour. In South […]
Black Mass is the true crime story of James Joseph “Whitey” Bulger, Jr., a notorious American criminal, who haunted the world’s most wanted list for years.
