Grin Inducing fun.
Loosely based on the 80's arcade game, Rampage is a fantasy action film that whips along at a cracking pace.

There are loads of great action sequences and the humour is superb, throughout.
You'll need to switch your brain off, though, as it's very far fetched.

My son and I watched this together (he's 12) and both left the cinema with massive grins.

Excellent fun.

I had never actually heard of the book before seeing the first trailer for this show and deciding to give it a go.I was pleasantly surprised on how much I enjoyed it

Sheen and Tennant are excellent as the Angel/Demon respectively who team up together to prevent the end of the world happening.Some good supporting cast members (Michael mckean as the witchfinder general is particularly good) and there are some excellent special effects.

When Four Horror Icons Collide
House of the Long Shadows- is a excellent movie. It has four horror legends and icons in it. Vincent Price, Peter Cushing, Christopher Lee and John Carradine. It mixes horror, suspense and comedy and it does a excellent job with it.

The plot: An American author finds a dilapidated Welsh manor perfect for writing until the residents host a bizarre family reunion.

Its a must see film.

Seeking Revenge
Upgrade- directed by Liegh Whannell was a excellent, fantasic movie. Than combines sci-fi, action and horror into one movie. Think Robocop, Dredd and Terminator all combine into one movie with the horror espect.

The plot: A brutal mugging leaves Grey Trace paralyzed in the hospital and his beloved wife dead. A billionaire inventor soon offers Trace a cure -- an artificial intelligence implant called STEM that will enhance his body. Now able to walk, Grey finds that he also has superhuman strength and agility -- skills he uses to seek revenge against the thugs who destroyed his life.

If you like seek revenge movies like Dredd and Robocop than you will love this movie. Logan Marshall-Green is excellent and Leigh Whannell does a excellent job directing.

Guy Ritchie back to his best
I'll start by saying that I am huge Guy Ritchie fan so am probably a bit biased but I am definitely not blinkered though. I realise that he's made a couple of stinkers, a few average films and a couple of excellent films. I think we can now add the gentleman to the list of excellent films! This is by far the best film Ritchie has made post Matthew vaughan. It's a fast paced film with even faster dialogue, Ritchie hasn't had a cast of characters this interesting since snatch with the highlights being fletcher (Hugh grant), coach (Colin Farrell) and Ray (Charlie hunnam). I personally would love to see a spin off movie about Ray and coach. Overall I would give this a 9/10 excellent film.

A mix between Village of the Damned and The Brood (0 more)
Damned Brood
The Children- is a excellent film. It reminded me so much of both "Village of the Damned" and "The Brood". Its a mix of those two movies and its excellent.

The plot: Two families gather at an upscale English estate in late December. Elaine (Eva Birthistle) and her sister, Chloe (Rachel Shelley), along with their husbands and children, are set for a weekend of family bonding and winter fun. But when they arrive, one of the children becomes sick, and all of the children exhibit strange behavior. The adults don't realize the disturbing truth until it's too late: The children have contracted a disease that has turned them into brutal, psychotic killers.

Its violent, gory, horrorfying, terrorfying, scay and overall excellent.

New favourite book!
Recommend this book to nearly everyone. So much nostalgia for the 80's and 90's but very futuristic. Loved every page! Perfect novel for gamers, especially for retro fans!
