Rambo: Last Blood
I just want to take a moment to state I first blogged about this film waaaay back in 2014 and a few times since then – but finally the waiting was over and I dragged Heretic Deb along to the cinema with me to see Rambo: Last Blood. So this ‘review’ will naturally take a…

Ah. There is it!
This is a bit of a follow-up to this post, something that I wrote back in the middle of 2016, expressing my disappointment that Rambo V appeared to have been stomped on and no longer in production. I can happily say that this isn’t the case any longer and Rambo V has not only been…

Words of Wisdom
“If you’re frightened of dying and you’re holding on, you’ll see devils tearing your life away. But if you’ve made your peace, then the devils are really angels, freeing you from the earth.” The above is a quote from the film, Jacobs Ladder. And while, I actually had to look at the synopsis on IMDB to…

Wait a second – Iron Man?
I am a little bit confused about this particular update from Marvel. When the announcement about updating the character Thor and turning her into a woman I was somewhat skeptical, but let it go because if that is who Mjolnir found worthy and all that. Yet. Iron Man. Being a black girl? I think for…

Movie Review – Creed
I’ve been meaning to watch Creed since it came out at the cinema, but for some reason I never got round to it. Maybe because it’s not the sort of film my partner would enjoy – having never seen the rest of the series – and to be completely honest I wasn’t so sure the…

Where is my Rambo V?
I posted an excited blog way back in 2014 about Stallone doing the fifth and final instalment in the Rambo series; which at the time made me eternally happy. If it’s one thing that I still fangirl over, despite my fangirly habits changing, it’s Rambo. I don’t know how I feel when I recently went…

Shame
I don’t often get to watch films like this, generally because they would bore the socks off my partner and we get little movie watching time together anyway. So when I have the house to myself I like to take advantage and rent a movie for myself to settle down and enjoy – even if…

International what day now!?
According to the wonderfully reliable source that is Twitter, apparently yesterday was ‘International Fangirl Day.’ If I had known sooner then I would certainly have made a bigger celebration of it. The fact that at Thirty I am still able to be a fangirl is such a wonderful thing. No. Really it is! The fact…

The Raid
(Original artwork by: Jock) It’s been a while since I wrote anything about something I’ve recently watched. I admit, then I first came across this movie I wasn’t overly convinced that it would be any good. I recall the trailer for it just looked terrible – giving the briefest outline for a plot and showing…

Soundtrack of my years
Well, maybe only the past two. When you write a 7 – 10k word document on a film you have to pick the right one. You don’t want to pick a film that you’ll get fed up of or loose inspiration to write about after the fifth viewing. So when I decided to explore a…
