Is Interstellar the perfect date night movie for Valentines day?
Now you might not think a dystopian future with humanity on the brink of extinction, space travel, wormholes, black holes, ice planets and astronauts are your typical date night movie…

I’d like to think that I’m an unbiased reviewer – aside from my predilection towards Comics, SciFi and Fantasy of course – and as such can look at a movie…
I’ve already written a review of the book Ender’s Game by Orson Scott Card and to be honest it is one of my most favorite books … EVER. I think…
I went into the fourth installment in the Transformers movie franchise, “Transformers: Age Of Extinction” (AOS) as a Michael Bay Transformers movie veteran. Gone was the awe and childlike wonder…
Fortunately for the Geeky among you Christmas has been a great time for Movie viewing. Over the past couple of years the focus has obviously been on the Fantasy front…
SciFi Buff that I am I thought I had to give this a try … I really, really did try … but this is bad. No other way to say…
The Wachowskis clearly have a type. If there is one thing the visionary directors love more than elaborate sci-fi jargon and gravity-defying boots, it’s the concept of using human beings…
I’m probably going to to go a slightly different path on this review versus my previous film reviews about the Hobbit and not give you a standard walk-through. I mean…
Marvel Studios’ new superhero movie Guardians of the Galaxy is a smart, funny, self-aware bubblegum movie, like the recent X-Men film Days of Future Past, it features a retro playlist…
My The Matrix Revolutions review: amazing action, a bleak mood, weak Smith CGI and an ending that left me with questions. Closure, but no first-film magic. 2.5 to 3.
My The Matrix Reloaded review: great freeway action, but the rave, the Architect and the twins left me cold. Not the continuation I wanted. 3 out of 5.
My The Matrix 1999 review: the cryptic ads, five trips back to the cinema, the dojo, the subway and the rooftop. Everything about it worked. 5 out of 5.
My Return of the Jedi review: the Ewoks put people off, but I loved it. Great fights from Han’s rescue to Endor to Vader and the Emperor. Better than Empire for me.
My The Empire Strikes Back review: the Hoth battle, Luke and the wampa, Yoda, Cloud City and Vader’s reveal. One of the darkest endings ever. 10 out of 5.
A review of X-Men: Days of Future Past, which puts both casts on screen at once, adapts the most iconic X-Men story, and quietly repairs the timeline.
The Amazing Spider-Man 2 crams in three villains and one devastating ending. Garfield and Stone are great. The film around them is doing too much.
A review of Captain America: The Winter Soldier, where HYDRA turns out to have been inside S.H.I.E.L.D. from the beginning and Marvel makes a political thriller.
My Resident Evil Retribution review: good action and some favourite faces back, but nothing much happens and Alice as a mom didn’t work. 2.5 to 3 out of 5.
The Amazing Spider-Man reboots Peter Parker five years after Raimi. Andrew Garfield’s take, mechanical web-shooters, and a Lizard that never quite lands.
A fresh Avengers 2012 review: the shared-universe gamble nobody thought could work just delivered the best time at the movies all year.
My Resident Evil Afterlife review: 3D that didn’t work for me, a copout loss of Alice’s powers, but baddies that match the games. 3 to 3.5 out of 5.
