Faster & Furiously: How Vin & the Family Owe an 80s & 90s Debt

April 14, 2017 by Tony Black

Tony Black on how Fast & Furious owes a debt to 80s and 90s action movies… You may have avoided the Fast & Furious franchise. I did, for ages. To me it was nothing more than ‘car porn’, full of slick machismo, bad dialogue and poorer plot choices. 2008’s semi-reboot Fast & Furious began a […]

Raising Caine: Sir Michael Going On In Style

April 9, 2017 by Tony Black

Tony Black on screen legend Michael Caine… His recent political leanings aside, Sir Michael Caine remains one of the surviving legends of British and indeed American cinema of the last fifty years, and this weekend’s Going in Style–a heist caper directed by none other than Scrubs‘ Zach Braff–sees him share top billing with fellow aged […]

Film Score Review – Smurfs: The Lost Village (2017)

April 7, 2017 by Tony Black

Tony Black reviews the score for Smurfs: The Lost Village… Who knew we were getting a new Smurfs movie? Especially one with, as it turns out, a really quite charming score. Christopher Lennertz for some reason hasn’t broken out to become one of the giants in modern composing but it’s hard to see why as […]

Free Fire: The 70’s Crime Pictures It Takes a Bullet From

April 1, 2017 by Tony Black

Tony Black on Free Fire… Let’s be honest, if you’ve seen Free Fire, you’ll know it’s not particularly like a lot of the 1970’s crime films that, on the face of it, Ben Wheatley’s movie would sit alongside. This pulpy, lean slice of comic violence owes more to the early 90’s stylistics of down’n’dirty Tarantino […]

Movie Review – Population Zero (2016)

April 1, 2017 by Tony Black

Population Zero, 2016. Directed by Julian T. Pinder. SYNOPSIS: Documentarian Julian Pinder attempts to unlock the mystery of ‘The Yellowstone Murders’, a seemingly senseless killing of three men in the Yellowstone National Park which involves a remarkable technicality within the United States Constitution… Billed as a cross between The Blair Witch Project and Making a […]

Film Score Review – CHIPS (2017)

March 30, 2017 by Tony Black

Tony Black reviews the score for CHIPS… You remember CHiPs right? The 1970’s police drama starring Erik Estrada about two Californian motorcycle cops? No? Yeah, me neither. A hit American TV show, it wasn’t as popular across the Pond and hasn’t particularly retained a place in pop culture as many shows that straddled the less […]
