Graeme Robertson on why The Insider should have won over American Beauty at the Academy Awards… The line up for the Oscars celebrating the best of 1999 could arguably be seen as something of a slow year in terms of cinematic brilliance, at least in my opinion. While none of the films nominated is particularly […]
The Moments Which Made You Love Cinema
Tom Jolliffe on those moments which made you love cinema… It’s different for everyone and maybe for some it never happens. Not everyone (shock horror!) is into film. For those film buffs, nerds, geeks, or even merely casual enjoyers of cinematic delights, there are always defining moments. Maybe it’s a moment within a film. Maybe […]

Oscars: What Should Have Won – L.A. Confidential Over Titanic for Best Picture
Graeme Robertson on why L.A. Confidential should have won over Titanic at the Academy Awards… The Oscars celebrating the best of 1997 was a ceremony dominated by one film, James Cameron’s romantic disaster epic Titanic – a film that devoured the box office and won itself an absurd 11 Oscars including Best Picture, a feat previously […]
The Directors We Love to Hate
Tom Jolliffe takes a look at some of cinemas most hated directors… When all is said and done with a film, everything boils down to one thing: The individuals verdict. You’ll love films, you’ll hate them, you’ll be totally indifferent to some. This then rings true of individual aspects in a film, from cast, to […]
Star Trek – The Essential Picard: Nemesis
Ricky Church continues his look at the essential Jean-Luc Picard adventures with Star Trek: Nemesis… Up until last week’s premiere of Star Trek: Picard, the end of The Next Generation era wasn’t the series finale ‘All Good Things…’, but the 2002 feature film Star Trek: Nemesis. While a lot can be said for the film’s overall quality as the […]
Mann, Refn and the Safdies: Mastering Neo-Noir

Of those four TNG films, perhaps the […]
Star Trek – The Essential Picard: All Good Things…
Ricky Church revisits the essential Jean-Luc Picard episodes as we count down to the premiere of Star Trek: Picard… While the adventures of The Next Generation crew didn’t end with its series finale, ‘All Good Things…’ brought a sense of closure to Captain Picard and the Enterprise-D that was exciting, heartfelt and well-earned, bringing the series full […]
Star Trek – The Essential Picard: Tapestry
Ricky Church revisits the essential Jean-Luc Picard episodes as we count down to the premiere of Star Trek: Picard… Some of the best Star Trek stories aren’t big battles or galactic intrigue, but rather introspective episodes for the characters that challenged their assumptions and choices.
