The Essential Helen Mirren Films
Tom Jolliffe looks at the essential Helen Mirren films… A British Icon, Mirren has been working since the 60’s and has an array of cult films under her belt, as well as a consistent recognition from the major awards. Never less than stellar, Mirren is an inspiration to aspiring actors. She’s successfully jumped between indie, […]
In Praise of Frances McDormand
Tom Jolliffe celebrates the career of Frances McDormand… I have a number of favourite actors. If I had carte-blanche to cast a film it would probably be filled up with characters. Maybe brilliant underachievers, who never quite hit their heights for one reason or another (Mickey Rourke, Eric Roberts, Rutger Hauer), or maybe they just […]
In Praise of Sam Rockwell
Tom Jolliffe looks at the career of the vastly underrated Sam Rockwell… So after doing a piece on the fantastic Frances McDormand, sticking with the Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri connection, it seemed apt to do a piece on an actor who has always slipped just below the radar. Sam Rockwell is always great and […]
Truth and Justice: Why Superman remains an icon 80 years later
Coinciding with the release of Action Comics #1000, Ricky Church celebrates the 80th anniversary of the Man of Steel… It’s almost hard to believe Superman has reached his 1000th issue in Action Comics, the very comic he made his first appearance, but when you think about it its not that surprising at all.

King of the Gypsies: 40 Years of Eric Roberts
Tom Jolliffe looks at the career of Eric Roberts after 40 years on the silver screen… I’ve long championed a certain cinematic underdog. An actor who burst onto the scene full of promise. A character actor with an edge and the ability to play tightly wound and/or complexly simple-minded characters with aplomb. The other day […]
Ranking the Resident Evil Games from Worst to Best
Chris Cooper ranks the Resident Evil games… Back in 1998, around the time the second game was released, was when my relationship with Resident Evil began. My brothers and I were too young to be playing it but we’d managed to convince our mum to get us a copy of the first game now that […]
Unnecessary Reboots, Remakes and Sequels
Tom Jolliffe looks at Hollywood’s preoccupation with reboots, remakes and sequels… I sit here in the year 2018. Suddenly I find myself compelled to moan about the unimaginative approach to greenlighting Hollywood studio pictures. This is not a new phenomenon, it’s old hat. As of now the vast majority of greenlit, large studio films are […]
We Love It When Actors Hate a Movie They’re In
Neil Calloway looks at when an actor realises one of their movies is a turkey… For reasons that it would take a long German word to explain, we like it when films go wrong, and we also like it when actors spill the beans about unpleasant filming experiences they’ve had. Two stories this week reinforced […]
