REVIEW: The Beaver
Friday, June 17th, 2011

Mel Gibson plus hand puppet… and this is meant to be his great return since he went biblical. That’s right, the man who decided that he never again wanted to use film as a means of just making money, he wanted to get his message across. Never mind the huge money making successes that ‘The Passion of the Christ’ and ‘Apocalypto’ were, he’s returned to being in front of the camera and firmly positioned himself in centre stage with his new role.

REVIEW: 13 Assassins
Monday, June 13th, 2011
Picture the re-imagining of an old fashioned samurai film by one of the best directors in Japanese cinema to date. Director Takashi Miike is best known for his hyper violent films ‘Audition’, ‘Three Extremes’ and of course ‘Ichi the Killer’. Constantly behind the camera working on projects, Miike is one of the most famous and productive directors in modern Japanese cinema, yet most of his work goes unseen by audiences outside of East Asia. It’s a crying shame that only his most violent work makes its way across the globe and seeing as we Westerns haven’t heard his name mentioned since 2004, it’s about time he hit it big with his take on the classic samurai feature.

OPINION: FIFA – The Only Way is Ethics
Wednesday, June 8th, 2011
What is a crisis? Perhaps it is a time of great difficulty or a period of instability. The definition of what actually constitutes ‘a crisis’ is open to interpretation and often context-dependent. However, what is certain is that the corruption scandal that has hit FIFA has left this all-powerful organisation in the midst of a major crisis.

REVIEW: Julia’s Eyes
Wednesday, June 8th, 2011
‘Julia’s Eyes’ is the second Spanish horror film to come with the ‘Presented By’ label from Guillermo del Toro, following the huge success of fantastic gothic chiller ‘The Orphanage’, which also starred Belén Rueda. ‘Julia’s Eyes’ is a suspense-thriller with something that many recent horror films don’t have: characters.
