The Revenant, Alejandro González Iñárritu’s aggressively masterful new wilderness epic, is the true definition of a consummate big-screen experience. Comparisons to Apocalypse Now, Aguirre, The Wrath of God, Jeremiah Johnson, Deliverance, and so many others before it are apt and fair; even after only one viewing, I feel confident in saying that this film belongs…
No Escape is the intense, action-packed thriller, where an American business man (Owen Wilson) and his family suddenly find themselves in the middle of a violent political uprising, frantically looking for a safe escape. Pierce Brosnan plays Hammond, a British expatriate who comes to the rescue when the Dwyer family face a violent uprising is…
Tangerine is a bold, raw, and deeply felt independent film from director and co-writer Sean S. Baker; it’s the first film I’ve seen of his and now I eagerly anticipate his next move as a filmmaker. This is the often hysterical, often draining story of two African-American transgender prostitutes, played with loud charm by Kitana…
Tom Hardy who is being hailed for his new role alongside Leonardo Di’Caprio in The Revenant discusses his thoughts on the difference between being masculine and being macho. The Red Bulletin: What’s the relevance of the wristbands you’re wearing? Tom Hardy: They’re for organisations like Help for Heroes. I have a lot of friends in…
Joy is a good, inspiring movie, filled with lots of heart and genuine emotion, about something honest and real and tangible, featuring the radiant Jennifer Lawrence in a sensational movie-star performance that easily cements her as THE hottest (both in terms of looks and acting ability) actress of the moment. Seriously…name me one other actress…
Essex Boys: The Truth looks to dispel the speculation behind the grisly land rover murders carried out in 1995 on a cold winters night in Rettondon, Essex. The true events have inspired a series of spinoffs, films and exploitations of the events and still brings in a wide attention of people looking for answers of…
1. Gremlins A boy who has been sold a tiny furry animal by a reluctant shopkeeper in chinatown manages to inadvertently break 3 important rules concerning his new pet and accidently unleashes a horde of malevolently mischievous monsters on a small town. Never ignore the three simple rules: No water (violated), no food after midnight (violated), and…
Make no mistake – this is a bad movie. This is a film about a high school stud who gets murdered, then starts traveling between dimensions, assumes the spirit of a souped up sports car, which then starts extracting bloody and explosive revenge on the people who wronged him by driving them off the road….
Known for portraying intense characters, the Hateful Eight actor explains why you shouldn’t be afraid of being a bad guy. One of the great character actors of his generation, Tim Roth displays such skill and nuance that he’s become a favourite with moviegoers despite playing a vile assortment of killers, creeps and cunningly awful miscreants….

Crowdfunding has become so common-place that it’s an accepted part of film funding strategy. Not only do filmmakers receive some much-needed financial support but it also enables them to gauge support for their films and galvanise their fans. This has been spectacularly successful in relation to Veronica Mars, Zach Braff and Spike Lee films. In…
The Christmas season is quickly approaching. Have you been waiting for it or has it rolled around with as much a shock as a bauble straight to the face? Either way, let’s flash forward to when it’s all done and dusted. The Christmas tree is still up, but the Turkey’s in the bin and the…
Paul Schrader’s script included some shout-outs to his decades earlier work in Taxi Driver, but this was its own thing, based on Joe Connelly’s bleak novel, and looking at a particular lifetstyle we don’t see too often on screen. Nicolas Cage was electrifying here — it’s a truly bravura big-screen performance, filled with the customary…
With the release of Star Wars The Force Awakens approaching faster than you can say “Han shot first” everyone has the force on their mind. Whether you’re a fan of the original trilogy exclusively or if you think the prequels brought something new and exciting to the story we’re certain you’ve been thinking a lot…
I find myself frequently coming back to this title over the last few months. Emperor of the North, aka Emperor of the North Pole, is an exceedingly masculine film. You can smell the cinematic machismo dripping off of Lee Marvin and Ernest Borgnine all throughout this beefy action-adventure from man’s man director Robert Aldrich (The…
Side Effects is a slick, smart, and deceptively layered thriller from Steven Soderbergh and writer Scott Z. Burns, who before this under the radar gem crafted the irreverent comedic masterwork The Informant! Side Effects is an extremely stylish head game that loves toying with the audience at all times, and it also happens to be…
