Having never heard of "Moontrap" before watching it I of course went looking for information as you would and found several referring to it as a cheesy b-movie classic. Now whilst I'm not the greatest fan of sci-fi I enjoy ch...

The Hudsucker Proxy (1994)

In 1981 John Carpenter gave us "Escape from New York" and introduced us to Snake Plissken and whilst I wasn't a huge fan of the movie what he did on an estimated budget of $6,000,000 was good. A decade and half later and John...

First things first and there is no denying that Bruce Campbell as an aging Elvis is a joy to watch and his inner thoughts about not having an erection in years are genuinely amusing. Amusing is also what "Bubba Ho-Tep" sounds...

Sky High (2005)

To be honest I like Super Hero movies but I have grown tired of the constant bombardment of super hero movies and comic book adaptations which have dominated cinema in the last few years. Maybe it's because having grown up wa...

There is nothing like a true story movie of a disabled person triumphing over adversity to wake you up and realise what a moany person you have become and "Touch the Top of the World" certainly does that. This is the story of...

The Ant Bully (2006)

Unlike what seems to be the vast majority of the human population I have never gone wild for modern CGI animations, I don't necessarily think they are bad but I love the old fashioned hand animated cartoons which tend to be a...
