Their Finest (DVD Review)

Starring: Gemma Arterton, Sam Claflin, Bill Nighy, Jack Huston, Richard E. Grant
Directed By: Lone Scherfig
Running Time: 117 mins
BBFC Certificate: 12
UK Release Date: August 21st 2017

Our Score

It’s 1940 and bombs are dropping on London. Catrin (Gemma Arterton) is a young Welsh woman who’s run away to the Capital with her artist lover. As a result, Catrin finds herself in need of a job, despite it being the middle of the Blitz. She unexpectedly finds work as a writer for a film company, which has been asked by the Ministry Of Information to make a movie that will help support the British war effort.

Catrin soon discovers that she’s still living in a man’s world, having to fight for respect from her colleague, Tom Buckley (Sam Claflin), and pretty much everyone else around her. After all, in Tom’s words she’s just there for the ‘slop’ – aka the female dialogue. [Read more…]

Pride & Prejudice & Zombies (Blu-ray Review)

28th June 2016 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

pride-prejudice-zombies-slideStarring: Lily James, Sam Riley, Matt Smith, Douglas Booth, Jack Huston
Directed By: Burr Steers
Running Time: 107 mins
BBFC Certificate: 15
UK Release Date: June 27th 2016

Our Score

Jane Austen gets an undead mash-up in the film version of Seth Grahame-Smith’s novel, which took the original text of Pride & Prejudice and added in a whole lot of zombies. The movie has had a somewhat troubled history, with various directors and actors coming and going, and with the whole thing looking like they’d given up on it several times. However, finally Lionsgate got it in the can with Burr Steers (Charlie St. Cloud) directing and Lily James and Sam Riley starring.

As you would expect, the Bennet sisters are living in Hertfordshire, with their mother keen to marry them off to eligible men. While Lydia, Mary and Kitty seem keen to take any suitable gent, Elizabeth (James) is more headstrong and independent. While fending off the advances of Parson Collins (Matt Smith), she meets the exceedingly rich Darcy (Riley), who she takes an immediate dislike to, seeing him as rude, judgemental and unpleasant.

New Ben-Hur Trailer – The classic tale gets retold with Jack Huston & Toby Kebbell

14th June 2016 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

ben-hur-slideI may be completely wrong, but I’m finding it difficult to believe this new take on the classic Ben-Hur is going to be a hit. Indeed, it’s difficult to see why they thought a new version was necessary or desired, or indeed the Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter’s Timur Bekmambetov was the man to helm it. Even so, it’s coming and a new trailer has now arrived.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘BEN-HUR is the epic story of Judah Ben-Hur (Jack Huston), a prince falsely accused of treason by his adopted brother Messala (Toby Kebbell), an officer in the Roman army. Stripped of his title, separated from his family and the woman he loves (Nazanin Boniadi), Judah is forced into slavery. After years at sea, Judah returns to his homeland to seek revenge, but finds redemption. Based on Lew Wallace’s timeless novel, Ben-Hur: A Tale of the Christ. Also starring Morgan Freeman and Rodrigo Santoro.’

At least Toby Kebbell has suggested the homoerotic undertones between Messala and Ben-Hur may make it across into this new version, which were present in the 1950s take. The film will be in cinemas in August. [Read more…]

Ben-Hur Trailer – Jack Huston takes on the iconic role in Timur Bekmambetov’s movie

16th March 2016 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

ben-hur-slideEver since it was announced that a new, big-budget film version of Ben-Hur was in the works, there have been a lot of people wondering whether we needed it. There was more reticence when it was announced that Timur Bekmambetov would direct, as the likes of Wanted and Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter haven’t suggested he’s a perfect fit for an iconic epic.

However, the shoot went ahead with Jack Huston taking over from Charlton Heston in the title role, and now the first trailer, and a poster, are here.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘BEN-HUR is the epic story of Judah Ben-Hur (Jack Huston), a prince falsely accused of treason by his adopted brother Messala (Toby Kebbell), an officer in the Roman army. Stripped of his title, separated from his family and the woman he loves (Nazanin Boniadi), Judah is forced into slavery. After years at sea, Judah returns to his homeland to seek revenge, but finds redemption. Based on Lew Wallace’s timeless novel, Ben-Hur: A Tale of the Christ. Also starring Morgan Freeman and Rodrigo Santoro.’

The film will be in cinemas in August. [Read more…]
