When I sat down to watch Frozen 2 with my girlfriend, I expected a fun, interesting and musical adventure. What I did not expect was an unscientific, uneducated advert for homeopathic pseudoscience.But first of all, what is homeopathy? It's a kind of alternate medicine which claims that by diluting natural substances in water over and … Continue reading Frozen 2 is Seriously Not Ok and we All Should be Outraged

Why You Should Watch Jackie Chan Films
It's always strange to pick up a strong interest in something you had previously overlooked. I went from watching Jackie Chan DVD's loaned to me by a friend, to physically buying the DVD's myself, to creating a website to catalog which Jackie Chan films you've seen and all in less than one month, and without … Continue reading Why You Should Watch Jackie Chan Films
Detective Pikachu – Simply A Good Time
I saw detective Pikachu today and it was pretty great! Pokemon is a series that I've grown up with for such a long time and it might just be one of my favourite game series' - until before the 3D model change, which was still ok, just not as good. So honestly a lot of … Continue reading Detective Pikachu – Simply A Good Time
PSA: Don’t Watch “Now You See Me”
After watching all of this film yesterday I feel like I need to make sure that nobody else does that same thing again. The first half hour of the film is good but once they explain the first big trick that's where you should stop watching. Because of after that it turns into a huge … Continue reading PSA: Don’t Watch “Now You See Me”
What if People Thought You Were the Messiah? – Life Of Brian
Monty Python's Life of Brian is such a funny and hilarious film that follows Brian, a person who many people confuse with the messiah in the same time period of Jesus. The moment that the people thought he was a messiah was so funny that it caused me to laugh so loudly that everyone in … Continue reading What if People Thought You Were the Messiah? – Life Of Brian
The Last Jedi Ruined Everything, was good though
I recently got the chance to watch the last jedi for free so I took up that chance and watched it on a huge projector type screen, with many other people, in a field in the middle of nowhere. I went in sort of knowing I would enjoy it, because I had watched a lot … Continue reading The Last Jedi Ruined Everything, was good though
‘A Silent Voice’ is An Excellent Film
I have found in the past that writing a long review talking about the film in chronological order is unhelpful to a lot of people because they can get insanely long and people don’t have the time or the patience to read it all, so now I’m switching my style to talk about specific things … Continue reading ‘A Silent Voice’ is An Excellent Film

The Show Don’t Tell Rule is not Perfect
The shows don’t tell rule is a standard for good writing, especially in media like films. Since I’ve been on a bit of a film binge recently I’ve noticed a few things that have made the show don’t tell rule a little more complex in my mind to the point that I consider it highly … Continue reading The Show Don’t Tell Rule is not Perfect
The Girl Who Leapt Through Time Is a Great Film
It’s rare for me to find a time travel film which tackles it’s time travel mechanic in such an interesting and personal way. Instead of a simple save the world plotline the show explored the less catastrophic, more fun side of time travel whilst still creating an interesting, high stakes story which is fun to … Continue reading The Girl Who Leapt Through Time Is a Great Film
Berserk: Golden Age Arc III: The Advent
Something that I praised the first film a lot was how it managed to fit a lot of events in to one very short film. This third adaptation of the golden age arc from berserk was both long and didn’t fit a lot of events into it, making it boring in my opinion as everything … Continue reading Berserk: Golden Age Arc III: The Advent
Berserk: The Battle For Doldrey Film
This Berserk film is very similar to the previous one and covered what I would expect it too. My brief opinion is that it was worse than the first film yet still alright, I feel like the extra run time was actually a detriment to me as I started losing attention towards the end. Despite … Continue reading Berserk: The Battle For Doldrey Film
Berserk: The Egg of the King Film – Not For New Fans Of Berserk
Films are something that I find pretty difficult to like and I often tend to dislike for reasons that I can’t really describe. It’s normally a mixture of things I dislike and my short attention span that cause me to lose interest half way through. If you want to know how much I dislike films … Continue reading Berserk: The Egg of the King Film – Not For New Fans Of Berserk
