Harry Brown (Michael Caine) is a former Marine.  He, as well as many others in the neighbourhood, has had to put up with the shenanigans of a set of young hoods that terrorize their living area and sell drugs.  After the death of his best friend, Leonard (David Bradley), Harry has decided he’s had enough and has to teach these children a lesson.  He goes on a hunt for the man that murdered his friend the only way that he knows will work, without the police.

Guess the Movie: Aug 28th

August 28th, 2010
by Andrew Robinson

So a while back I used to do this weekly post called Guess the Movie.  What I do is that I post a screenshot from a film and you, the reader, have to guess what movie it comes from.  There’s no prize or anything other than bragging rights and knowing that you have successfully out-nerded everyone else.  Each week I’ll post not only a new screenshot but a link back to the winner of the previous week’s challenge.

Last time I posted this challenge was over a year ago, yes I’m resurrecting this feature.  Back then the image I posted was from The Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. Let’s see how long it takes for you all to guess the movie the the screenshot below is from: Read the rest of this entry »

Movie Review: David Lynch Marathon: Dune (1984)

August 25th, 2010
by Andrew Robinson

Here’s a movie that I must admit goes beyond anything I ever expected in the realm of science-fiction (and not in a good way).  David Lynch is well known – as I’ve discovered in the last few weeks – for his overly stylized weirdness.  This time going into the one genre of filmmaking which requires an immense imagination he not only falls into the realm of over aloof-ness but he just misses the point of making a movie.

Movie Review: STV: Abandoned (2010)

August 24th, 2010
by Andrew Robinson

Mary (Brittany Murphy) is taking the morning off from work to take her boyfriend, Kevin (Dean Cain), to the hospital for surgery.  After a few hours of waiting in the lobby for him she realises that something has to be wrong.  She soon confronts some medical staff only to be told that her boyfriend is not in their system, the doctor he was coming to meet is on leave and there’s no one coming in for the kind of operation that she claims he was scheduled to do.  She’s left being accused of being insane and wondering who’s playing the sad joke on her.

A Movie Pitch by Me

August 23rd, 2010
by Andrew Robinson


So over the last week Anomalous Material (a really awesome blog) had this great event where we all participated in The Hollywood Fantasy Draft (I’ll let you figure it out).  It was a blast.  I spent ten rounds picking and choosing who would fit a film that I’d love to see one day.  However, it’s time for me to take that film that I see everytime I close my eyes and explain it to everyone else on paper.  This is the final stage of the event – The Pitch.

Random Thoughts: The Rock (1996)

August 22nd, 2010
by Andrew Robinson

Here’s a new feature that will be as random as it’s title.  It won’t be weekly, it will be used as needed.  These articles will just be me rambling on about something in the world of film; sometimes it will be a specific movie or a topic I just thought of and felt like giving you my unprocessed feelings/thoughts on it.  So sit back and enjoy.

This past week I found myself lazing around – as I usually am – and watching some television.  Flicking through the movie channels, since there really is never anything good on any of the other ones at this time of day, I found one of my all-time greatest action movies just starting, and that movie is called The Rock.
