Weekend at Bernies 1 & 2 (Review)

Posted on October 15, 2012 by OGR

Can I just state upfront that Weekend at Bernies is indeed an annoying one note 80s comedy with precious few laughs and even less substance, but while I fully acknowledge its many failings I distinctly recall enjoying it more than … Continue reading →

Austin Powers Trilogy Review

Posted on October 6, 2012 by OGR

I’ve been watching a bunch of trilogies, quadrilogies and… other things ending with ‘ilogy’. Some, like The Mummy, Child’s Play and the Friday films, take a premise and beat it to death without care or creativity. Feast doesn’t even have … Continue reading →

Blade Trilogy Review

Posted on September 15, 2012 by OGR

Blade is one of the cooler comic-book character to cinema adaptations going around. Most guys who were in their teens or twenties when they saw the original remember it fondly, cinema snobs with an action bent (myself included) give the … Continue reading →

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (TMNT) Trilogy Review

Posted on August 11, 2012 by OGR

I was a 15 year old teenage boy when Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles was first released. As such I should have been the poster child for their marketing team, and indeed I did attend the film in the cinema along … Continue reading →

The Bourne Trilogy Review (Now with Matt Damon!)

Posted on August 4, 2012 by OGR

Jason Bourne is like a high tech computer to me. I appreciate all the features and capabilities when they are shown to me. I marvel at the efficiency and acknowledge all the know-how and skill that goes into painstakingly crafting … Continue reading →

The Lost Boys 1987 & The Lost Boys 2: The Tribe (Review)

Posted on July 28, 2012 by OGR

(The Lost Boys was initially suggested some time ago by a mate obviously suffering with reminiscence issues. Thanks Mastah.) The Lost Boys really could have used an A Team type voiceover in the film’s opening; (gruff voice) “If you don’t … Continue reading →

The Original Star Wars Trilogy Review

Posted on July 14, 2012 by OGR

So far Star Wars has influenced at least three generations. Literally billions of people have seen it. Most of those have written about it. I am not stupid enough to think I can plumb the material for the jokes practically … Continue reading →

Bruce Campbell Marathon – My name is Bruce (Review)

Posted on June 23, 2012 by OGR

I am quite positive that My name is Bruce would be as confusing as Egyptian hieroglyphics to a Non-Bruce Believer. At the same time though I can’t see many NBBs even taking the DVD off the shelf for a glance. … Continue reading →

Bruce Campbell Marathon – Bubba Ho-Tep (Review)

Posted on June 23, 2012 by OGR

Try and keep up here. Elvis Presley is alive – but elderly and sporting a cancerous dick – and wiling away his days in a Texas nursing home, which he co-habits with many senior citizens, one of whom is the … Continue reading →

Bruce Campbell Marathon – Man with the Screaming Brain (Review)

Posted on June 23, 2012 by OGR

Someone more cynical than me might look at Bruce Campbell’s ‘Man with the Screaming Brain’ as a vanity project, even a desperate attempt to prove that the success of the Evil Dead films wasn’t all due to Sam Raimi. If … Continue reading →
