3.5/5 88% Life of Pi (2012) " If you're in search of a film that's something a little different, they don't come much more different than this." — SFX Magazine
Posted Apr 26, 2013
3.5/5 91% Ray Harryhausen: Special Effects Titan () " While not spectacular or amazing, this is an affectionate and satisfying tribute." — SFX Magazine
Posted Mar 8, 2013
4/5 91% Safety Not Guaranteed (2012) " A human drama with some good laughs, winningly performed, and never predictable." — SFX Magazine
Posted Jan 2, 2013
3/5 —— Doctor Who - The Claws of Axos (1996) " It's all quite cute, fun in a watching-while-unwell-by-the-'70s-fireside sort of way." — SFX Magazine
Posted Oct 19, 2012
2.5/5 22% When the Lights Went Out () " Nothing particularly surprising or exciting happens, and the straightness with which the subject is treated eventually means everything seizes up." — SFX Magazine
Posted Sep 19, 2012
2/5 17% Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance (2012) " The worst Marvel movie since Elektra - perhaps even Howard The Duck." — SFX Magazine
Posted Jun 22, 2012
3/5 65% The Woman in Black (2012) " If you're in the mood for a competently made, dark and nervy ghost story with a star you're already fond of, then you're probably in for a fine time." — SFX Magazine
Posted Jun 21, 2012
1.5/5 35% Womb (2012) " Director Benedek Fliegauf, whose cat perhaps died shortly before production started, appears unwilling or incapable of making his mournful project bloom into a satisfactory drama." — SFX Magazine
Posted May 15, 2012
2.5/5 13% Piranha 3DD (2012) " Attempts to go for the funny bone rather than trying to frighten - and that's perhaps just as well." — SFX Magazine
Posted May 15, 2012
2.5/5 29% The Wicker Tree (2012) " Where it falls short is a lean supply of narrative surprises or dramatic tension, and a pace that's a little too leisurely. It's all just a bit bland. " — SFX Magazine
Posted Apr 30, 2012
2.5/5 —— The Deadly Spawn (1983) " Simple, slow and cheap, yes, but fondly thought of - and not without some justification." — SFX Magazine
Posted Mar 18, 2012
3.5/5 63% Dellamorte Dellamore (Cemetery Man) (Demons '95) (Of Death, of Love) (1996) " A triumph of style over content it may be, but Michele Soavi's film is still wickedly original and full of ambition." — SFX Magazine
Posted Feb 27, 2012
4.5/5 81% The Skin I Live In (2011) " More than justifies the usual Almodóvar adjectives: 'dark','unusual', 'erotic' and 'twisted'." — SFX Magazine
Posted Jan 3, 2012
4/5 —— Who Can Kill A Child (2007) " A highly effective, deliciously subtle horror film that's genuinely unsettling." — SFX Magazine
Posted Oct 12, 2011
2.5/5 50% Damnation Alley (1977) " A movie firmly in the 'guilty pleasure' category." — SFX Magazine
Posted Oct 12, 2011
3.5/5 93% Midnight in Paris (2011) " Midnight In Paris radiates positivity with its call to live life to the full and in the now." — SFX Magazine
Posted Oct 12, 2011
2.5/5 75% Stake Land (2011) " it's as dark as Harry Potter 19 might have been, and keener on exploring deeper themes than having an all-slaying, all-spurting, all-squirting orgy of fangbanging fun." — SFX Magazine
Posted Sep 16, 2011
1.5/5 4% Vampires Suck (2010) " A movie that will have you pining to watch the real Twilight films. Yes, it's that bad." — SFX Magazine
Posted Oct 19, 2010
3/5 54% Disney's A Christmas Carol (2009) " It is an experience, being stunning to look at -- and you'll only get the full effect from seeing it on the big screen, rather than waiting for the DVD." — SFX Magazine
