Film Review: Tomorrow When The War
There aren’t many Australian-made films out there, and there certainly aren’t a lot of action movies set in Australia. Tomorrow When The War Began is one of those rare films, and now I am going to tell you why it is not only the best Aussie film ever made, but why it is one of the best films of the… Continue »
Review: Killers
Earlier today I went to see the new Ashton Kutcher movie, Killers. I can tell you now that if you liked Date Night and Knight and Day, then you’ll love this movie.

Now we are at the final chapter (really? Film companies always say that) of the Shrek saga. Now I didn’t really enjoy Shrek the Third… Continue »

When I saw the trailer for the movie I thought “Yeah, maybe I’ll see that, to see… Continue »
