So honestly, I’ve been meaning to watch Roma for a week or so, and haven’t gotten round to it for reasons I myself don’t fully know. Maybe it’s because I watch enough brilliant and intellectually challenging films for university, maybe it’s because I don’t have the energy this time of year, I don’t know. But somehow, in bed the other night, I ended up forgoing Roma for The … Continue reading The Princess Switch Review – A Christmas Movie At Its Most Fantastically Silly (Rating: 5/10)

Nick Cage is still batshit, and the violent situations he is placed in … Continue reading Mandy Review – A Demented Takedown of Megalomanic Men (Rating: 9/10)
Without sounding too sad, instead of going out clubbing with friends, I often prefer to invite them over for bad film watching. It’s always better in a group; you have people to bounce your inevitably aggressive or incredulous opinions off of. I have found during the many times that I’ve done this that the most fun is had from a film you have genuine affection … Continue reading Revisiting The Twilight Saga: A Lukewarm Defence
