CB4 (Review)

Posted on January 17, 2010 by OGR

Every guy in their 30s who likes hip-hop, or even liked it at one point in their youth, knows CB4. They probably can’t remember a thing about it, but they likely remember the film fondly for some reason. I was … Continue reading →

Posted on January 16, 2010 by OGR

Update: New Piranha 3D review online here. A few weeks ago, just pre: Avatar‘s release, I saw a hype interview for Avatar with James Cameron. The interviewer (justifiably) crapped on and on about all the great stuff Cameron has made … Continue reading →

Point Break (Review)

Posted on January 15, 2010 by OGR

Kathryn Bigelow probably needs to direct more, her rap-sheet includes The Hurt Locker, Near Dark and even Blue Steel was pretty good. And Point Break, the ultimate 90s (teen) action film. For some reason I wasn’t that blown away by … Continue reading →

The Abyss (Review)

Posted on January 14, 2010 by OGR

Perhaps you haven’t yet heard, but a little independent film named Avatar snuck into selected cinemas last month. Once word gets around I hope a few people check it out, as these films need support to justify making more of … Continue reading →

Renegades (Review)

Posted on January 13, 2010 by OGR

I hadn’t rented a DVD for probably six months, relying on the collections of friends and some of the films in my collection to fill gaps when I couldn’t justify dropping the dollars on anything in the cinema. But my … Continue reading →

Fight Club (Review)

Posted on January 11, 2010 by OGR

I first saw Fight Club when it was released in cinemas and I immediately decided that I didn’t like it that much and it was overrated. I second-guessed myself maybe a year later and rented the video, still thought it … Continue reading →

Deadgirl (Review)

Posted on January 10, 2010 by OGR

Deadgirl. This is yet another film in the “well we’ve got a basic premise, let’s start without a plot thing”. That puts it in the same category as Grace, Naked Fear, Killer Klowns From Outer Space and Doghouse, I could … Continue reading →

Code 46 (Review)

Posted on January 9, 2010 by OGR

Code 46 is something altogether new to me, an unnecessarily sci-fi film. That doesn’t mean it is a terrible movie or anything like that, it is OK, just that the sci-fi elements, add precious little to the film and seem … Continue reading →

Outlander (Review)

Posted on January 8, 2010 by OGR

I may be being tuff, but Outlander is a bad movie. It takes a lazy premise that has been done again and again and again (Yes, I’ll give examples) for over 5 decades now, and takes it nowhere. This would … Continue reading →
