Review of Lolita (1962)

By Adam K (1,533) on 17 Aug 2014

Like Kubrick's other study of sexual obession in Eyes Wide Shut, Lolita is dull and slow…

Review of The Raid 2 (2014)

By Adam K (1,533) on 16 Aug 2014

Review of The Shining (1980)

By Adam K (1,533) on 09 Aug 2014

Review of Role Models (2008)

By Adam K (1,533) on 09 Aug 2014

Role Models isn't necessarily as interesting or great on a moment to moment level as They Came Together or Wanderlust, and certainly nowhere…

Review of Manakamana (2013)

By Adam K (1,533) on 06 Aug 2014

Yes, of course it is about the viewer as much as the traveller, but this film is a little too one dimensional - a little bit like Cage's silent music…

Review of Terminator 2: Judgment Day (1991)

By Adam K (1,533) on 25 Jul 2014

Review of Only Lovers Left Alive (2013)

Review of Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb (1964)

Review of Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (2009)
