The Maze Runner (12A) review You may feel that the young adult (YA) movie market is getting a little crowded at the moment.

Gone Girl (18) review I’ve written plenty of film reviews over the past six months – but Gone Girl is perhaps the one I’ve spent the most time wracking my brain over. That’s because it would be very easy to give the game away – and I certainly don’t want to be the one to ruin David Fincher’s masterpiece for ...

The Equalizer (15) review I’ll be honest with you from the off – The Equalizer doesn’t really bring anything revolutionary to the table. But I ask you this: does that really matter when it delivers just over two hours of Denzel Washington being an absolute bad ass? Some actors make average films good by simply signing up and playing a ...

FIFA 15 (Xbox One) review In recent years at least, you usually know exactly what you’re going to get from the FIFA series. FIFA 15 is no different – and if you’ve played FIFA 14, the changes this season are pretty subtle.

A Most Wanted Man (15) review It was hard to watch A Most Wanted Man without being filled with constant regret. Don’t get me wrong, it’s an excellent film. But to think it’ll be one of the last times we’ll see fresh material from the late, great Philip Seymour Hoffman is a damn shame. Hoffman is at the centre of ...

A Walk Among The Tombstones (15) review Liam Neeson seems to live in a genre of his own these days – and it’s never a good idea to be a bad guy in any of his movies.
