Korean thrillers rarely pull their punches, which can often make them deeply affecting - especially when they centre around some really dark subjects. Unlike popular Chinese and Japanese cinema exports there is typically much more favour for realism in Korean films, that only makes them more shocking.

Given the name of the film and the crew behind it, one wouldn’t be wrong to think that this was somehow related to the found footage giant monster movie, “Cloverfield”.

The 2008 film “Revolutionary Road” reunited the two main characters of “Titanic”, Kate Winslet and Leonardo DiCaprio. I had thought that this film was going to be a rekindle of the flame that I saw in “Titanic” and something that would leave my heart melting. However, I had an …

I admit I only watched this film because I couldn’t imagine the actor, Colin Firth in the role of a Roman Commander. I just couldn’t picture him on big screen after watching him in the role of the prim and proper Mr. Fitzwilliam Darcy of “Pride and Prejudice” or …

And I laughed too. A lot.
This a surprising, fun, funny, touching play. It is a bitingly satirical look at Hollywood stardom. That makes it sound somehow predictable and dull - but I assure you it is far better than the synopsis.
It stars Rupert Friend as Mitchell, a Hollywood actor …

OK, when I watch a science fiction movie, I expect space aliens to be aggressive and to desire taking over our planet. I don’t want them to come here to be our friends (unless of course that happens in real life).
That’s why the movie The Day the Earth Stood …

As far as wasted opportunities go, this film takes the cake. It isn’t so much a remake of the original film as it is homage to it as only the very basic plot elements from the original were retained and woven into an unnecessarily reworked plot that falls flat …
