The Last Stand (2013)

Old school action thriller. It's like the Expendables meets the Wild West. It's cheesy, badly acted but it's still Arnie. Watch it for some mindless entertainment and explosions only 2/5

End of Watch (2012)

Excellent documentary style film starting Donnie Darko and his Mexican cop partner. The acting is class and the on screen bromance is awesome. Fresh, original and exciting.4/5

Jack Reacher (2012)

Starts promising with an intriguing plot line and then nose bombs at "the car chase". It never really picks up after that. Tom Cruise is good as usual but the whole film misfires with the whole civilian superhero thing it tried to portrait.3/5

Jaws: The Revenge (1987)

Without doubt a terrible excuse for a film. Probably the worst Jaws film of them all. There's nothing more to say about this.1/5

Room 237 (2012)

As a former media student I understand media symbolism and Mise en Scene but this documentary is way off. Attributing blatant continuity errors to the directors intentional genius misses the mark and clutches at straws.2/5

The Da Vinci Code (2006)

I can't believe it's 7 years old already! It's one if those clever stories with puzzles, twists, multiple story lines and of course, Tom Hanks. What lets it down is how linear it is. And at the end of the film you ask what the whole Church Albino was all about? Pointless plot line. Good but not amazing.4/5

Not Another Teen Movie (2001)

A guilty pleasure. A likeable spoof in a similar vain to Scary Movie. Shows its age a bit now but what the hell. "Janie Briggs has got a gun".3/5
