Lady Jane (1986)

142 mins     Biography, Drama      

Pomp and ceremony was what I remember from learning about the Tudors when I was at school and I even remember watching a Tudor drama when I was at school. I think that may explain why as a movie reviewer I have an aversion to...

Star Trek: Generations (1994)

118 mins     Action , Adventure , Mystery, Sci-Fi      

To adapt the saying to fit my purpose "To boldly go where this man has never gone before" is apt for when it comes to "Star Trek: Generations" the 7th movie in the Star Trek foundation. It is apt as I have not even seen even ...

The Canterville Ghost (1996)

92 mins     Drama, Family, Fantasy, TV Movie      

There are those who adore the works of Oscar Wilde and there are those like me who have never read one of his stories, some might call me a heathen for having never read Wilde whilst some might call those who do so elitist sn...

Star Trek: First Contact (1996)

111 mins     Action , Adventure , Sci-Fi      

If you have read my review of "Star Trek: Generations" you will know a few things; not only am I not a Trekkie but I found it hard work as I had no idea about "The Next Generation" characters. As such I had debated whether to...

Conspiracy Theory (1997)

135 mins     Crime, Romance, Thriller      

I have a conspiracy theory which out does all those more well known ones such as JFK, man on the moon, Princess Diana. My conspiracy theory revolves around the movie "Conspiracy Theory" as I believe that thanks to tampering f...

A Christmas Carol (1999)

95 mins     Drama, Fantasy, TV Movie      

Watching the 1999 version of "A Christmas Carol" I found myself wondering whether we needed another version especially another dramatic version which for the most stays loyal to Dickens' original story. I say this because Dic...

X-Men (2000)

100 mins     Action , Adventure , Sci-Fi      

When I was growing up there was only really one big screen super hero, which was "Superman". Yes there were other comic book heroes but rarely did their presence make it onto the big screen and certainly never into a series o...

King of Texas (2002)

95 mins     Drama, TV Movie, Western      

For those who are unaware "King of Texas" is a western update of Shakespeare's "King Lear" but in truth you do not need to be a Shakespeare fan to appreciate it. In fact I would say not being a Shakespeare fan is probably a g...

X-Men 2 (2003)

133 mins     Action , Adventure , Sci-Fi      

Following the crowd pleasing success of "X-Men" it's no surprise that "X-Men 2" or "X2" as it's also known was produced, especially as the original whilst a good movie felt like a precursor to a sequel with its emphasis on bu...

Mysterious Island (2005)

172 mins     Action , Adventure , Sci-Fi, TV Movie

Chicken Little (2005)

81 mins     Adventure , Animation, Comedy      

I guess that for the right age group Disney's "Chicken Little" is entertaining, it looks like it hits the mark but I am clearly not in the movie's intended age group. You see whilst "Chicken Little" is an animation I wouldn't...

X-Men: The Last Stand (2006)

104 mins     Action , Adventure , Sci-Fi      

So after two strong "X-Men" movies delivered impressively by director Bryan Singer, along rolls the third and maybe final movie in the franchise "X-Men: The Last Stand". But sadly Bryan Singer didn't roll along with it being ...

African Cats (2011)

89 mins     Adventure , Drama      

Now in truth "African Cats" isn't a great deal different to the nature programs I was once forced to watch as the narration tells us all about a lioness called Layla, a cheetah called Sita and an old lion called Fang. It take...

Christmas Eve (2015)
