They Don’t Make ‘Em like Grosse Pointe Blank Anymore

April 4, 2026 by Tom Jolliffe

We take a look back at Grosse Pointe Blank, the cult classic that should be the blueprint for genre-blending films… Studios seem to like a good genre blend these days. It’s not a new concept, and the action/comedy fusion has been a staple for many years. However, flipping it on its head somewhat and infusing […]

How Orion Pictures Perfected the Chuck Norris Movie

March 27, 2026 by Tom Jolliffe

Orion Pictures made arguably the two best movies with the late Chuck Norris, Code of Silence and Lone Wolf McQuade… The late great Chuck Norris departed the mortal coil. He wasn’t taken; he just left us behind. Norris’ legacy leans heavily toward the meme generation and viral internet humour. Chuck Norris Facts were an early […]

10 Intense Chamber Piece Movies for Your Watchlist

March 22, 2026 by Tom Jolliffe

Who needs a lot of locations? Not these ten intense chamber pieces… A chamber piece movie is typified by limited locations, or more often just a single location, with a focus on a small cast of characters. Intimate focus and character-driven narratives are a perfect antithesis to huge expansive ensembles and globe-trotting adventures you might […]

What to Expect From A24’s Bloodsport Remake

March 20, 2026 by Tom Jolliffe

What can we expect from Michaela Coel and A24’s Bloodsport remake?  Sometimes cinema throws out a head-scratching surprise. This week, it was the news that A24 and Michaela Coel are combining to remake the Jean-Claude Van Damme star-maker, Bloodsport. It’s a bizarre combination of creative forces to say the least, and one that doesn’t immediately […]

The Worst Omissions in the 2026 Oscar Nominations

March 13, 2026 by Tom Jolliffe

The Oscars can’t always get it right, but were they seriously wrong with these omissions? The Oscars are almost upon us, and heaven knows what controversies and contentious decisions await. The nominations went largely as expected, given the award season thus far and the hype associated with particular movies. However, even the nominations weren’t without […]

Is the King of Action Back? Arnold’s Triumphant Return to Conan, Commando and Predator

March 10, 2026 by Tom Jolliffe

Do movie fans want Arnold Schwarzenegger’s return to the big screen? I do… but what could we expect? Some projects remain in development hell forever. A permanent state of gestation, jumping between writers, directors and studios. Sometimes they never break out of that vault, but as we’ve seen with a recent (and regrettably shit) The […]
