Tom Jolliffe with his five essential Michael Caine roles… As a Brit and a lover of cinema, sometimes it’s good to take the time to fully appreciate some home grown talent.

Matt Smith reviews episode 6 of The Following season 2… In last week’s review stopovers were mentioned. This week’s episode features an airplane and a trip to Venezuela.

Last week producer Joel Silver (Lethal Weapon, Non-Stop) spoke about his previous plans to bring Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons’ seminal comic book tale Watchmen to the screen, during which he stated that his and Terry Gilliam’s (Brazil, The Zero Theorem) adaptation would have been “MUCH better” than what we ultimately got from Zack Snyder […]

Back in 2009, Zack Snyder achieved what many thought impossible when he brought Alan Moore and Dave Hibbons seminal comic book Watchmen to the screen. However, things could have been different had Joel Silver (Lethal Weapon, Die Hard) had his way, with the producer spending much of the late 80s and the early 90s attempting […]
