The Warriors (Review)
The Warriors might be seen retrospectively as a seminal moment in films representing the ‘urban environment’, but to my non-rose-coloured-glass-covered eyes, it is a Benny Hill soundtrack away from being a kitsch comedy. Even though Walter Hill wants it to … Continue reading

Insidious: Chapter 3 (Review)
Of course a franchise has every right to take itself more seriously than you the casual viewer does, but I always find it amusing when a middling (at best) series begins with a preamble that assumes you remember anything about … Continue reading

Kite (Review)
In a future city reminiscent of the pages of Dredd (I made that observation before I discovered that they actually used the discarded sets from the pretty terrific Dredd reboot of a couple years ago.) Sawa (India Eisley) is a … Continue reading

Collateral (Review)
Usual disclosure first; I detest Tom Cruise and upon glimpsing his fence picket teeth my initial impulse is often to reach for the remote. That said, Collateral has a very solid reputation as one of his best, and while it … Continue reading

The Ghost and the Darkness (Review)
Quick story (with SPOILER); almost two decades ago my boss at the time arrived at work talking up his experience the night before at the cinema, where he watched this very movie. After making it sound so very exciting and … Continue reading

The Good, the (Not) Bad & the Ugly: Naughty by Nature
Premise first: There are a million cinematic genres out there just waiting for you to find them. Within those genres are countless films ranging from atrocious to (hopefully) all time great. We care at OGR, so since 2012 we have … Continue reading
Spy (Review)
I was asked this recently by a work colleague; “if Adam Sandler and Will Ferrell have made careers out of people laughing at them, so why do I have such an issue with Melissa McCarthy doing the same?” My response … Continue reading

Cheap Thrills (Review)
Cheap Thrills picks at its one note premise until it bleeds, meaning punters who enjoy sloppy execution and being bludgeoned to death without ever being asked to think can rejoice. A seemingly beige young citizen runs into a former schoolmate … Continue reading

Queen of the Damned (Review)
It doesn’t seem to matter whether you recall the events of Interview with the Vampire, a lushly presented Tom Cruise / Brad Pitt snoozer from a decade prior, because Queen of the Damned is world’s apart both in terms of … Continue reading

Cyborg 2 (Review)
Apparently Angelina Jolie laments her role in this film, her first on the big screen. It’s a little ironic that the lifeless and emotion free woman we see today saw her first onscreen action as a lifeless cyborg. It’s also … Continue reading
