Striptease (1996)

112 mins     Comedy, Drama, Thriller      

Whilst Demi Moore topless and pole dancing is an obvious selling point, "Striptease" doesn't really have much else going for it. In fact it is a little strange, maybe misplaced, combining moments of humour with drama and I su...

Mission: Impossible (1996)

110 mins     Action , Adventure , Thriller      

On one hand "Mission: Impossible" is a disappointment it is an unfaithful adaptation of the original TV series to the big screen and as such it goes for big, big names, big action, big scenes all to replace the missing intrig...

Con Air (1997)

115 mins     Action , Crime, Thriller      

With one of the most memorable mullets in the history of cinema Nicolas Cage is Cameron Poe in "Con Air". Following his releases from prison Cameron Poe finds himself sharing a flight to freedom with a bunch of deadly crimina...

Out of Sight (1998)

123 mins     Comedy, Crime, Romance      

George Clooney doing what for a while he did better than anyone, charming the pants off of women with that smile, that glint, that air of self belief but with just a big enough crack so that his arrogance isn't over powering....

Entrapment (1999)

113 mins     Action , Crime, Romance      

What happens when James Bond retires, well he becomes a master thief or at least that's what Sean Connery does in "Entrapment" playing a cool, collected charmer not too dissimilar to how he played James Bond. But "Entrapment"...

Mission: Impossible II (2000)

123 mins     Action , Adventure , Thriller      

Whilst the first "Mission: Impossible" was very similar to a James Bond Movie, "Mission: Impossible II" pretty much goes all out to emulate them. We have a much simpler storyline featuring Ethan Hunt after a villain, an ex IM...

American Tragedy (2000)

170 mins     Crime, Drama, TV Movie      

Now having admitted to having never watched any of the court case I suppose that makes me not the best person to review "American Tragedy" as it is all about the trial and I couldn't tell you how true it is to what happened o...

Holiday Heart (2000)

100 mins     Drama, TV Movie      

That synopsis for "Holiday Heart" barely covers what goes on in this movie and there is a whole lot more which follows such as Wanda ending up turning to prostitution to pay for her drug addiction whilst after turning their b...

Undisputed (2002)

96 mins     Action , Crime, Drama      

"Undisputed" has a few flaws but the major one; the one which causes the most issues is that it lacks depth. Now that may sound stupid seeing that the story to "Undisputed" revolves around boxing matches in prison and so at i...

Dark Blue (2002)

118 mins     Crime, Drama, Thriller      

Watching "Dark Blue" I can't but help think that it didn't end up the movie it was intended to be especially when you consider the setting is L.A. and the climax comes during the riots a year after the beating of Rodney King....

Sins of the Father (2002)

93 mins     Crime, Drama, TV Movie      

I wasn't even born in 1963 when the bombing of 16th Street Baptist Church happened and so can only guess at the uproar which the bombing and murder of four young girls caused especially when the case was closed. But for that ...

Dawn of the Dead (2004)

110 mins     Drama, Horror, Thriller      

I have to admit that I am not the greatest modern horror aficionado; I've watched a fair few but find most to be disappointing because the majority of modern horror movies swap true horror for obvious shock tactics. But the Z...

Mission: Impossible III (2006)

126 mins     Action , Adventure , Thriller      

Maybe it's just me but I find "Mission: Impossible III" the most boring of all the "Mission: Impossible" movies so far. We've seen it all before Tom Cruise playing Ethan Hunt and going on some top secret mission to battle a b...

I Now Pronounce You Chuck & Larry (2007)

111 mins     Comedy, Romance      

Watching a new Adam Sandler movie can easily be compared to watching the third movie in a trilogy. You've invested time in the first two movies and although you know the third movie will probably be unoriginal and lacking you...

Surrogates (2009)

89 mins     Action , Sci-Fi, Thriller      

When I first heard about "Surrogates" and heard that Bruce Willis was cast in the role of FBI agent Greer I predicted something, that was we would have Willis playing a conflicted cop with a troubled past who at some point wi...
