That was enough to hook me, even though the film itself strays slightly from that central concept. Its a lot, right? Im already looking forward to seeing it with other people, just to gauge their reactions to certain scenes. Its also worth venturing to the cinema to watch. As with most horror films, it always works best when accompanied by booming sound levels. The Collector is out Friday 25thJune. Rating:...
Glen reviews Young And Handsome, the stand-up DVD from Curb Your Enthusiasm’s Jeff Garlin. And he likes what he sees… I can only imagine that the cover for this DVD is deliberately awful. Im not saying that Garlin isnt a handsome man, just that the photo is really quite bad. Material largely focuses on married life and the feelings of inadequacy that come with it. Hes an easy-going, natural comic....
Disney’s return to hand-drawn animation looks stunning in high definition. But heck, it gives it a really good go. And whats more, there are moments here that simply wouldnt work anywhere near as well in CG animation. Take the sinister moments when the villain of the piece, Facilier, is really hitting top form. Its quite brilliant, and one of the highlights of a very good film. And thats just whatThe Princess And The Frogis....

It’s got a dose of Team America. A bit of Braveheart. And a whole host of laughs. Well, you would probably getJackboots On Whitehall. Ad content continues below And thats roughly only the first half an hour of the movie. As for the style and effort that goes into the puppetry here, its actually incredibly impressive. It may be on a small scale, but it is grand in the way it does it....
Carl catches up with The Red Machine at the Edinburgh International Film Festival. Now, can someone make him a 1935 buddy movie? (Any filmmakers out there that want to make a 1935 buddy movie, do it. It would be brilliant. This film convinced me.) He reluctantly agrees, with the latter being the main reason for doing so, of course. In fact, it starts to undo the good work of the other....

There are some sick films out there, were told. The BBFC were tasked with deciding what was acceptable or not following the Video Recordings Act of 1984.
