Hot Fuzz

Just got in from seeing Hot Fuzz at the Odeon in Lincoln and all I can say is WOW.
As a fan of Simon Pegg for many years I must say I was particularly looking forward to this film and it did not disappoint me in any way.

Ever since I first saw Spaced, Simon Pegg has [...]

The Fratellis

On a recent visit back home to Manchester, I went to see The Fratellis gig at the Carling Apollo.
As this was the first time I had seen them, I was really looking forward to a great show from this years “Big thing” and although a few things let the evening down a little, on the [...]

Music & Lyrics

As yesterday was Valentines Day, a trip to the Cinema with the GF for a Rom Com was the order of the day. We went to see Music & Lyrics at the Odeon in Lincoln, starring Hugh Grant and Drew Barrymore. After watching quite a few of Hugh Grants romantic comedies, I pretty much knew [...]

The Holiday

Saw this last night @ the Odeon in Lincoln fully expecting to be disappointed but I have to say I was pleasantly surprised by this festive rom-com.
The Holiday tells the story of two unhappy women on either side of the Atlantic and follows them over their Christmas holiday.
In an attend to get away from their [...]

Daniel Craig IS James Bond

FINALLY, a believable James Bond….
Went to watch Casino Royale last night and at long last we have a Bond film that is everything it should be. Eyebrows were raised with the casting of Daniel Craig but having seen him in a few other things I was confident that with the right project, he would [...]

Who’s clone is it anyway?

A Friendship, That Became a Rivalry…A Rivalry, That Became a Battle.

Another visit to the Odeon in Lincoln and another interesting film….

Children Of Men

Britain 2027, a dark vision of the not too distant future….

I went to watch the film “Children Of Men” last night at the Odeon in Lincoln.
Wanted to watch this when it first came out as the trailer stood out amongst recent offerings but have only just gotten round to going to the pictures.
I am so [...]

Snakes on a Plane

I went to see “Snakes on a Plane” at the Odeon in Lincoln last night.
Having been quietly excited waiting for the film to come out, i am pleased to say i wasn’t disappointed. With an equal measure of scares and laughs this film was pretty much what i thought it would be.

Yet again Samuel L [...]

This is how it feels….

Went to see the excellent INSPIRAL CARPETS again on Friday night @ The Marcus Garvey Ballroom in Nottingham with Adam. Yet again they were top notch value but we had to wait quite a while before they appeared….
The doors opened at 19:30, so we arrived at 20:00 expecting to have maybe one support act before [...]

“Is it a bird, is it a plane?”

….No it’s a really good film!
Went to watch Superman Returns last night at the Odeon in Lincoln with Ryan, and yes it is as good as I had hoped for.
The trailer had really made me want to see this film but as we all know sometimes the trailer is actually the best bits of the [...]
