The Boy Next Door (2015) – Movie Review
Someone told me this Jennifer Lopez starrer The Boy Next Door is a psychological thriller and this is the only reason I find myself tempted enough to watch the movie. To my disappointment, the film is in fact no less than an unimpressive plot that entangled itself being a good family drama and a steamy […]
The Woman in Black 2: Angel of Death (2015)
The first reason I wanted to watch The Woman in Black 2: Angel of Death is that it’s the sequel to 2012 Daniel Radcliffe starrer supernatural horror film. And the second but the most intriguing reason for me to be driven by is some amazing horror films such as The Babadook, Annabelle, Jessabelle and a […]

Wild Card (2015) – Yet another mediocre action flick
Based on William Goldman’s 1985 novel Heat that was then filmed with Burt Reynolds in the lead (1986 film Heat), the new version Wild Card is a big disappointment considering it is an action thriller. Action star Jason Statham reprises the role played by Reynolds but ends up over-playing with less action but more dialogues […]

Australian writer-director Josh Lawson’s debut feature film The Little Death is a sweet, funny, honest and realistic comedy film that talks about love, relationship, sex and most importantly sexual fantasies among urban couples. It takes us through the secret sex lives of five ordinary couples living in Sydney and how they get driven by their fantasies for […]
The November Man (2014) – Movie Review
Pierce Brosnan is back in a genre for which he is known, as a secret agent, but does he succeed in playing the role of yet another but highly skilled CIA agent in the new action thriller The November Man? Well, as far as his performance is concerned, he is pretty watchable but the film somehow […]
Taken 3 (2015) – Movie Review (Time To End The Saga)
Liam Neeson’s Taken movie series has been very successful in the first two installments as a must-watch action-thriller until the third one came with a very similar plot where CIA operative Bryan Mills again has to haunt down the baddies who are now after him for some reasons. It seems Bryan has been living under some kind […]
