There’s nothing like going on a 100 mph high-octane adventure without having to leave the comfort of the cinema. We might be Highway Code abiding citizens in real life, but when it comes to movies, there’s no harm in taking the things up a gear. Take, for instance, the example of Hurricane Heist’s dramatic high-speed…
It’s not everyday that Steven Spielberg comes to Birmingham but Warner Bros seems to really love the city as in the summer of 2016, Ready Player One came to town. The set was spread over areas of Digbeth and the Jewellery Quarter. Both locations transformed into an apocalyptic world as part of the main storyline. I…

Over the years I’ve attended so many comic cons that my body seems to order press badges even in my sleep. I’ve been very lucky to attend some brilliant conventions with some superb guests.

Ready Player One takes us into the history of films, TV and games and stirs them all together in a nostalgic masterclass. Every scene is an Easter egg hunt fiesta and whilst the search is entertaining in itself, at heart, it’s a classic Spielberg adventure. Set in a dystopian future where mankind escapes the slums…
I always get confused when US titles come over to the UK and they’ve been renamed and rebranded. Rex was originally called Megan Leavey over in the states and it has been getting rave reviews across the pond. I’m a sucker for a movie which focuses on our relationship with animals and Rex seemed right up…
Keep Watching is more of an endurance test than a movie. You sit down, put the DVD into the player and see how long you can watch this heap of trash until you want to tear your eyes out of your sockets. Keep Watching revolves around a family on a 10-day trip who get caught…
It’s crazy to think that it’s been a whole 15 years since the last Tomb Raider movie was released.

Previously played by Angelina Jolie, Lara Croft has taken on a more…

Netflix gives us the freedom to scroll through an endless number of titles and watch just whatever piques our mood that particular day. From action to comedy, from horror to TV Shows it just about has it all. But with freedom of choice comes indecisiveness. There really is just too much choice when it comes…
Being a huge fan of Marlon Wayans throughout his career and even having the honour of interviewing him for Haunted House. I was keen to check out this Netflix stand-up original. At the ripe ol age of 45 Marlon still puts his heart, soul and his body into getting the most ludicrous reactions from any…
