Hero (2002)

99 mins     Action , Adventure , Drama      

"Hero" is not a bad movie but it is a movie which didn't do it for me in the same sort of way "Avatar" didn't do it for me. You see "Hero" is visually stunning and I doubt there is a single person on the planet who would disa...

Cradle 2 the Grave (2003)

101 mins     Action , Crime, Drama      

"Cradle 2 the Grave" whilst certainly an entertaining movie it is also one made to a formula which when you see that Joel Silver is producer is not much of a surprise. Joel Silver makes movies for the masses; slick, good look...

"Unleashed" or the rather strangely titled "Danny the Dog" as it's also known is one of those modern martial arts/action movies but most definitely not your average sort. It has those expected elements with Jet Li impressing ...

"The Mummy" was an entertaining movie, "The Mummy Returns" which came 2 years later wasn't bad but then 7 years after the first sequel came "The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor" and the words "oh dear" spring to mind. Ignor...

The Forbidden Kingdom (2008)

The Expendables 2 (2012)

103 mins     Action , Adventure , Thriller
