Dawn of the Planet of the Apes // Review
This month we look at Dawn of the Planet of the Apes; the sequel to Rise of the Planet of the Apes, and the second film of the rebooted franchise.
Godzilla // Review
Why does Godzilla have two feet? Because six inches would look ridiculous.
The Amazing Spider-man 2 // Review
Rather than sack the chef (director Marc Webb) they seem to have sent him on a cookery course – apparently the Whedon school of cookery, and maybe, just maybe, it’s paid off.
Life on the Limit // Review
Where F1 is the subject of Life On The Limit, the documentary itself could feature in a future film called ‘Storytelling on the Limit’.
300: Rise of an Empire // Review
Welcome to the re-match of the year: Sparta vs Persia

Basically the reasons you should go see this are as obvious as an eleven year old trying to sneak a Robocop VHS out of Aylsham video shop.
The Wolf of Wall Street // Review
Who better than the guy who showed us gangsters being businessmen [Scorcese], to show us bankers being criminals?

IMAX: Star Trek Into Darkness // Film Review
It’s the return of Kirk’s merry band of interracial, international, interstellar space cowboys...
Iron Man 3 // Review
He’s a millionaire playboy with the kind of reputation that would make Charlie Sheen’s biography read like Cider with Rosie

Before you can say “Fe Fi F-Oh Fu…” there’s more giants than you can shake an IMAX camera at, and they’re not happy.

Django Unchained // Review
"Does Tarantino go too far? Hell yeah, and that’s why it works!" - Smiley reviews Tarantino's latest
The Hobbit // Review
Peter was in, Guillermo was out, and before you could say, “are you Tolkien the piss?” it was shot, edited and split it into THREE films!
Skyfall // Review
007, the suave secret agent with Britain in his heart, blood like ice and the collective libido of plentyoffish.com.

Nolan took the darkest side of the knight for his Batman trilogy and now we get Dredd - the lawman that puts the mental in judgemental.
Ted
Meet the beer swilling, pot smoking, stripper loving, foul mouthed, un-cuddly toy that is Ted.
