Acid Rain . Drug Addiction . International Terrorism . Freeway Killers . Now , more than ever , it is important to remember the TRUE meaning of Christmas ! Don't miss Bill Murray's immortal classic Scrooged . You're life might just depend on it . Christmas Specials are a big deal , with some of them ( such as Charlie B...

Meep Meep !
This is the very first Road Runner cartoon . Fresh and funny it was at the time , but after a while many of these toons began to resemble each other and it was impossible to tell them apart especially when they started recycling footage in the non Looney Tunes Rudy Larriva shorts of the 60s and 70s . It lessens the qua...

An intriguing mystery for people who like to think
Spartan-Rigorously self-disciplined or self-restrained . Simple , frugal austere . Marked by brevity of speech , laconic . Courageous in the face of pain , danger , or adversity . If you like Ronin then Spartan is choc-full of the same kind of cryptic dialogue with double / triple meanings and clever touches . Not surp...

A better ' bomb ' movie than Speed .
Most IRA movies made in Hollywood are always criticised for the actors not sounding like real Irishmen . I have never once found this to be true and certainly not for Blown Away . Tommy Lee Jones is quite convincing as a deranged bomber who goes after Jeff Bridges in revenge for betraying him 25 years earlier . Stephen...

And now . . . a word on nutrition
Robocop 2 is probably the most under-rated and most harshly criticized sequel in history ( tying with Predator 2 , which came out the same year ) . Because of a few missing elements from the first and a slightly more cartoonish approach to the violence , the critics and public alike were not pleased and opinions and fe...

I saw it with a full house and everyone did find it funny ( plus it was cool to get a little extra bonus before the movie started ) .

A chilling twist on reality TV .
While reality TV is a long dead horse endlessly being flogged this action movie is so fresh and new and exciting .

Think of it like Tetris only with letters in the blocks . You've got to link up letters to make words . If you feed the bookworm too many small words he'll send down fiery red letters .

His wooden statue of a Native American warrior comes to life and takes them down . It's a little slow and doesn't have a lot going on but it still cool and well direct...

Amazing platformer
Super Mario Bros . 3 is certainly an impressive game for 1988 standards and holds up as an innovative platformer even today . The graphics , level design and gameplay make for a truly great playing experience . I never did finish the first Super Mario Bros . ( as of yet ) and I've never even played Super Mario Bros . 2...

A tense , well-crafted action film
A bizarre mix of creative talents went in to making this movie . Not the kind of thing that happens too often these days . A script from Robert Zemeckis and Bob Gale , direction by Walter Hill and his usual gang ( strong editing from Freeman Davies , cool photography from Lloyd Ahern and score by Ry Cooder ) , Bill Pax...

I'd give it a million stars if I could . I never thot a game could possibly be more fun that GTA3 . GTA Vice City achieves that impossible . How can I NOT recommend this epic adventure ? ? ? The action , the gore , the humor , the violence , the amazing stunts , the tunes , the celebrity voices , ABSOLUTELY EVERY-THING...

It may be hard but it's way cool and atmospheric .
You really do get the feel of absolute abandon and isolation while playing Myst . The graphics may be rather dated now ( especially compared to the modern graphics in Uru and Myst IV ) but it's easy to get immersed in the quiet , lonely environment and believe your actually there . The sound effects and music are sligh...

Ahmwoonanawoonanawoonana-huh !
This is one of the best comedies out there , made back in the days when John Landis was still good . It is bursting with brilliant scenes for fans to act out and loads of hilarious lines to recite . I find myself doing this quite a lot . Who cannot resist Eddie Murphy's foreign exchange student disguise or Ackroyd's Li...

They don't make ' em like this anymore .
I'm so tired of modern family movies full of fart jokes or movies where teenagers make love to pastries and it's supposed to be funny and then they staple on some superficial message at the end in an attempt to be poignant and balance out all the trash that came before . Every other week we are tortured with some nonse...

I believe it's real
You know what this film is , you've seen it on The Discovery Channel or a Sci-Fi Channel documentary . It's the one with a Bigfoot walking into the woods while constantly looking back at the man with the camera . Roger Patterson and Bob Gimlin , the men behind this little miracle , were out in the wild forests of North...

A must for KOF fans
Not a revolutionary animated movie by any means but this sequel to Fatal Fury has a reasonably good story and interesting characters . The color scheme is bright and easy on the eye and the animation style is better than most Japanese anime in which everyone looks like Asian / American to appeal to both audiences . I t...

My fave Disney animated movie
But the typical faults of all the other recent animated movies are still evident . I'm talking about the loud , loud , LOUD soundtrack that gives you a massive headache . That is about the only bad thing I can think of . The main reason TENG is better than other Disney rubbish is the ( almost ) complete absence of stup...

Now THIS is more like it !
The idea of the Matrix is so full of potential and could be taken in so many , many directions . The movies decided to go in the direction of pretension but the Animatrix goes EVERYWHERE the movies don't . It is so far superior and well worth the time . It's a shame that most audiences don't consider Anime or any form ...

Cozy Xmas Cartoon
Is it just me or do the Garfield TV specials seem to have a real emotional touch to them that gives the whole series higher integrity than the average children's animation . If only the movie were this good . It's Xmas time once again and Jon takes Garfield and Odie back home to the farm for a good , old-fashioned coun...

Well , it took over 4 years but I finally have a new best movie . And not only that but it's the funniest movie ever also . It's quite possible you'll die of oxygen deficiency , you'll be laughing so hard . Taking place in what is essentially the same universe as Who Framed Roger Rabbit , the movie begins with both Daf...

So totally cool .
Man this short movie rocks . Made for a mere $30 , 000 , Sandy Collora proved that even with a tiny budget he could bring a truer , darker and superior Batman to life than Joel Schumacher could with zillions of dollars and A-List names at his disposal . Gone is the stupid molded plastic physique and overuse of the bat-...

No one leaves empty handed
A rather different approach to a ( radio ) quiz show . If you don't answer the impossible questions in a ridiculously short time you get tortured with falling boulders , cascading water , conveyor-belts with those spinning saws and whacks of a mallet to the head . Daffy Duck is wonderful as the demented host dishing ou...

Best Animated Movie Ever
The second big screen outing of Lupin III is already one of the best Anime movies ever made , while rivalling anything Disney or Pixar has to offer . Green ogres , fat superheroes or a zillion gigabytes of computer animation still cannot compare to 12 frames of hand drawn charm . For the uninitiated , Lupin III is the ...

Best action film of the late 90s
Jerry Bruckheimer's production style rarely makes a good movie but Con Air is one of those rare exceptions in which all the OTT mayhem and full-on action make a film so exciting it scorches when you watch it . Nic Cage ( in a typically bad performance ) is Cameron Poe , a US Ranger who is sent to prison for accidentall...

This one was almost tying with Spy vs Spy 2 but it comes out on top . Our spies are now in the North Pole after escaping the volcanic island on a submarine and once again have to outwit each other . Only every so often you have to go back to your igloo to warm up in case you freeze to death . Obviously there is a whole...

A sequel was written , in which Joe becomes trapped in the Claxxon Oil Corporation skyscraper after it is taken over by German terrorists and he has to rescue h...

George A . Romero's HUGE-scale sequel to Night of the Living Dead takes his simple , but scary , idea and expands from an isolated farmhouse to the whole planet . The zombies are EVERYWHERE and there is no escape . Resistance is futile . A couple of SWAT team members quickly figure this out and skip on their evacuation...

And a perfect film to watch during the holiday season as the winter / Xmas atmosphere that Burton creates for Gotham City is way cool .

For a comedy this has a decent and inventive plot and Trey Parker and Matt Stone's comic timing is perfect . There are dozens of funny moments to this fantastic movie . I especially like the multitude of colors and the way the clash in the sports arena scenes . Robert Stacks Unsolved Mysteries spoof is also very amusin...

This movie almost has everything . The action is cool , it's funny , 2 great leading men and a truly nasty villain that I REALLY hated . Not a lot of films have BAD bad guys .

In my opinion the movie didn't exist . This Animated version of the Streetfighter story is a zillion times as good . The characters are stronger and although there are quite a few of them they are all developed enough for us to sympathise / hate them . It seems as if the makers of this film paid extra attention to ever...

BETTER THAN IT'S REP SUGGESTS
It was the most professionally one so far when it was made and they stopped using that awful grainy film . But they still lacked it in the scriptwriting dept .

The truth only depends on the angle you're watching from .
This was director Richard Rush's dream project and it took him nine years to get it on the screen . And , of course , it would ! It's multi-layered , original , funny and packed full of story and circumstance that makes you think . Why would any studio want to touch it ? Fox even sat on it for two years before giving i...

I was a big fan of the Tales from the Crypt TV show . Thus , I am a big fan of this movie . It feels a lot like one of the Creepshow movies but has enough gore , humor and OTT carnage to make it stand on it's own as well as being a big screen spin-off . Brayker ( William Sadler ) is a drifter who stumbles upon a lonely...

This has to be one of the best action , western and gangster movies I've ever seen . Willis was perfect for the part of John Smith ( his voice-over has some of the best dialogue ever and if you don't believe me check out the opening scene ) , a gun for hire without a conscience . All elements of each genre are highly s...
