• “Aesthetic Value Goes Some Way To Make Up For Deviations From The Original” – Film Review: Death On The Nile

    After nearly two years of postponement due to the pandemic, the new re-make of Agatha Christie’s famous novel, ‘Death on the Nile’, graced cinemas on Friday 11th February 2022.

  • “From Bad To Mediocre” – Film Review: Zack Snyder’s Justice League

    Zack Snyder’s Justice League is an oddity. Snyder left the project originally due to family tragedy and Joss Whedon (director of Avengers, 2012) oversaw the completion of the theatrical version released in 2017.

    Since the overly harsh critical slaughtering of Batman V Superman, Warner Bros. decided to crank it up to 10 with this year’s San Diego Comic Con Justice League footage. The White Stripes bring in Batman and Aquaman in a macho-man face off of drastically unfair proportions. This footage is...
  • Film Review – Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice

    Zack Snyder is one of the most polarising directors working in Hollywood right now, and his ventures into the iconic characters are no exception. Man of Steel split the critics and the fans and Batman v Superman is likely to do the same. There is an awful lot to...
