Re: The Maze Runner

I'm not a fan of these YA dystopia films - The Hungar Games, Divergent etc - but something really clicked for me with The Maze Runner. Thoroughly enjoyed it. Good action, interesting story. OK the characters weren't particularly interesting but it didn't put me off it. Would happily watch it again. ...

Re: Gone Girl

Fincher knocks it out the park again. Even though I had read the book I was still riveted throughout. The ending is a masterclass in tension.

Re: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles

Found this to be utterly rubbish. It's such a dull story that misses some really great parts that it could tie into itself more. Shredder looks like a swiss army knife now. Megan Fox, who was upset about her sexualisation in the Transformers films, gets sexualised again in this movie with plenty of ...

Re: Oculus

Really good build up work, but it throws it away in the last third of the film. Agree with everyone else that there is to much back and forth. It gets confusing at times.

Re: Devil's Knot

Found this to be a really poor film. Both leads are hideously miscast and the story is not engaging. Compare this to the Paradise Lost doc's and you'll see what a true travesty of justice this true life crime was/is. Sadly this film never conveys the real issues very well. It's a Saturday afternoon ...
