By Paul Bramhall As 2018 draws close to an end, the appetite for female driven action movies doesnât seem to be waning in the West or the East. Warner Brothers appear to know this, so for their latest foray into the … Continue reading
Negotiation, The (2018) Review
Director: Lee Jong-Suk Writer: Choi Sung-Hyun Cast: Son Ye-Jin, Hyun-Bin, Kim Sang-Ho, Jang Young-Nam, Jang Gwang, Lee Moon-Sik Running Time: 114 min. By Paul Bramhall In the Korean film industry, Son Ye-jin is known as the Queen of Melodrama, and Hyun Bin the Rom-Com King. However the movie thatâs brought them both together is (perhaps mercifully) neither a melodrama nor a romantic comedy, with The Negotiation instead being a thriller … Continue reading
Rampant (2018) Review
Director: Kim Sung-Hoon Writer: Won Shin-yun Cast: Hyun-Bin, Jang Dong-Gun, Jo Woo-Jin, Kim Eui-Sung, Jeong Man-Sik, Lee Sun-Bin Running Time: 129 min. By Paul Bramhall Less than 3 years ago Korea spawned one of its most unlikely breakout hits, with the zombie action thriller Train to Busan. While personally I didnât find the concept of zombies on a train to be executed as entertainingly as it could have been, thereâs no … Continue reading

Director: Timo Tjahjanto Writer: Timo Tjahjanto Cast: Joe Taslim, Iko Uwais, Julie Estelle, Sunny Pang, Zack Lee, Asha Kenyeri Bermudez, Hannah Al Rashid, Salvita Decorte, Abimana Aryastya, Salvita Decorte Running Time: 121 min. By Martin Sandison The Mo Brothers’ Headshot, while a very good action movie in its own right, with effectively bloody violence and some great choreography, fell short of greatness in my opinion.

Director: David Gordon Green Cast: Jamie Lee Curtis, Judy Greer, Andi Matichak, Will Patton, Virginia Gardner, Nick Castle, Haluk Bilginer, Toby Huss, Jefferson Hall, Rhian Rees Running Time: 105 min. By Kyle Warner Itâs strange â yet totally welcome, in my opinion â for a slasher movie to be an event film in 2018. And it seems only appropriate that it would be a new Halloween that summoned the crowds … Continue reading

By Paul Bramhall There are some movies out there that seem destined to only be appreciated in retrospect, such could be the case for Resurrection of the Little Match Girl. It was a title that I avoided since its release, as I … Continue reading

Director: Jeremy Saulnier Cast: Jeffrey Wright, Alexander SkarsgĂ„rd, James Badge Dale, Riley Keough, Julian Black Antelope Running Time: 125 min. By Kyle Warner In days like these, when seemingly every other person in Alaska has their own reality TV show and the powers that be plan to put oil pipelines all across the land, the state of Alaska is losing some of its rugged, dangerous appeal. But in the deep … Continue reading
Trap: Lethal Temptation (2015) Review
Director: Bong Man-Dae Writer: Lee Chang-Yeol, Bong Man-Dae Cast: Yu Ha-Jun, Jung Min-Gyul, Na Sang-Gyu, Kang Yong-Gyu, Jo Soo-Jung, Lee Sang-Hwa Running Time: 107 min. By Paul Bramhall In Korea director Bong Man-dae is something of an anomaly. Even today he remains the only director to successfully transition from the world of erotic B-movies to mainstream cinema. After cranking out 12 titles in the 3 years spanning 1999 â 2002, … Continue reading

By Kelly Warner I like Jean-Claude Van Damme. I blame/thank the good people of this here site for convincing me to give the actorâs films another look after I had dismissed them as forgettable, low-rent action movies. And, to be sure, some … Continue reading
