Review of The Garden Murder Case (1936)

Review of Special Forces (2011)

By Paul Chambers (522) for Movie Chambers (386) on 03 Mar 2013

Special Forces has nothing constructive to say about bravery or the conflict in Afghanistan. It's just mindless action, and boring to boot…

Review of A Good Day to Die Hard (2013)

Review of The Liability (2012)

By Paul Chambers (522) for Movie Chambers (386) on 31 Jan 2013
