Review #6: Skyfall

Where to begin with the latest Bond outing; Skyfall? Theres quite a lot if were going to be honest and not be lazy like I was with my review of "The Avengers". So first off, lets start with the man himself. Because of MGM's financial state it was 4 years in between Craig's previous and recent adventures as 007. Do you remember in 2006 when the pitch for Casino Royale was to show a "young Bond": no Q, Moneypenny, just been given the license to kill. It's been that long that now members of MI6 such as Ralph Fiennes' Mallory are questioning whether Bond is up to the challenge anymore - "its a young mans game." Craig is impressive in this entry: frustrated by younger colleagues (Q, Eve), how his method of espionage is becoming outdated and by his own body - he's older, slower, weaker; Bond's out to prove himself . Fortunately Craig delivers, he more than proves himself (however I do hope that Craig's contracted 2 more Bond's ...

Review #5: Revolutionary Road

Sam Mendes must be a bit of an odd guy. Don't get me wrong American Beauty is brilliant, Jarhead is great and I'm unbelievably excited for Skyfall but the guy must be a little strange.

Then again were all professionals here.

Review #11: The Incredibles

Okay yeah I've done it againn. I said I'd start taking this blog seriously with the new year and that hasn't happened in the slightest. Good intentions will only get you so far, I'm a slacker I'll admit it, a product of a generation that wants to get as far as possible whilst doing as little as possible. But that stops now. And in a months time if I've done this again then I'll take this blog down since there is no point really. Anyway moving onto reviews. Pixar's The Incredibles is a wonderful film. Thats the problem with reviewing wonderful films I'm going to give this film a 5 out of 5 and everybody knows it. Okay sure perhaps it doesn't deliver in the big emotional stakes as much as other Pixar smash hits such as Wall-E, Up or Toy Story 3 but it delivers and then some in terms of entertainment, spectacle, comedy, characterisation and action. Director Brad Bird has admitted that he modelled the personalities of the Parr family on stock ste...
