13 Hours: The Secret Soldiers of Benghazi *** (2016, John Krasinski, Pablo Schreiber, James Badge Dale) – Movie Review
Director Michael Bay’s 2012-set real-life action thriller is a sterling 2016 account of the attack at a US compound in Libya in which the American ambassador is killed. It focuses on the bravery of a six-man American […]
Point Break ** (2015, Edgar Ramirez, Luke Bracey, Ray Winstone, Delroy Lindo, Teresa Palmer) – Movie Review
‘Everyone needs stories,’ says Luke Bracey. ‘Everyone needs to escape every once in a while.’ Well, yes, but is this the story that everyone needs? Everyone seemed to like it the first time Point Break (1991) when […]
Deadpool *** (2016, Ryan Reynolds, Morena Baccarin, Gina Carano, T J Miller, Ed Skrein) – Movie Review
Based on Marvel Comics’ most unconventional anti-superhero, this exceptionally grown-up and tough toned Marvel movie tells the origin story of former Special Forces operative turned mercenary Wade Wilson, played by a totally up-for-it Ryan Reynolds. He is […]

Neds **** (2010, Conor McCarron, Peter Mullan, Greg Forrest, Joe Szula) – Classic Movie Review 3341
Director-writer Peter Mullan’s semi-autobiographical film – his third movie after Orphans (1998) and The Magdalene Sisters (2002) – is a real heart-breaker, and an incredibly tough-minded, harsh-toned one, with the whiff, nay stench of reality […]
Othello *** (1995, Laurence Fishburne, Kenneth Branagh, Irène Jacob) – Classic Movie Review 3340
Ideally cast Kenneth Branagh scores a triumph as the scheming villain Iago in this penny-plain, much-cut 1995 film version of the Shakespeare play of scheming and betrayal in 16th-century Venice. But, try as they might, […]
