Ocean's Eleven (2001)

112 mins     Comedy, Crime, Thriller      

Remakes are a dodgy area, often not wanted by movie lovers because too often they tamper with a much loved Hollywood classic and balls it right up. It's rare that they get it right but in the case of the "Ocean's Eleven" rema...

Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle (2003)

106 mins     Action , Adventure , Comedy      

I described the first "Charlie's Angels" movie as a mixed bag which you could enjoy one day and dislike the next and I will say the same about the sequel "Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle". The reason being is that the sequel ...

Ocean's Twelve (2004)

120 mins     Comedy, Crime, Thriller      

The first "Ocean's Eleven" was a surprisingly good movie, especially as it was a remake so a sequel was pretty much anticipated. Well "Ocean's Twelve" comes along full of the impressive visuals, star studded cast, humour and ...

Mr 3000 (2004)

104 mins     Comedy, Drama, Romance, Sport      

Here we go again, another movie which takes me back to the ball park and the game of baseball. In fairness the idea of "Mr 3000" with an egotistical player learning that he didn't make 3000 hits during his career and forced t...

Guess Who (2005)

105 mins     Comedy, Romance      

Every time "Guess Who" comes on TV it is always referred to as a modern twist on the classic "Guess Who's Coming To Dinner", but it's not. It may use the basic idea of a daughter bringing a different nationality son home to m...

Ocean's Thirteen (2007)

117 mins     Comedy, Crime, Thriller      

It has to be said that it was a surprise after the slight disappointment which was "Ocean's Twelve" that they decided to make another movie in the series. But despite being outrageously contrived, full of plot elements which ...

Pride (2007)

104 mins     Drama, Sport      

As I watched "Pride" my thoughts constantly drifting to "Coach Carter" as they are very similar movies, both based on true stories, both about inspiring kids through sport and both having a very similar style. Now if I was be...

Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa (2008)

89 mins     Adventure , Animation      

With reluctance I sat down to watch "Madagascar 2" aka "Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa" as whilst the first movie probably entertained young children it did very little for me. But in fairness the opening to "Madagascar 2" grabb...

Soul Men (2008)

100 mins     Comedy, Drama      

As soon as "Soul Men" started it had me hooked with the footage of Mac, Jackson and Legend as a 60s soul act as Mac and Jackson had the look and the moves to make it amusing but believable. And if that wasn't enough we then g...

Old Dogs (2009)

88 mins     Comedy, Family
