Review of The Dictator (2012)

By Peter C (1,037) on 04 Jul 2013

By Peter C (1,037) on 07 May 2013

Love Is All You Need ... as is good casting, the lack of which prevents what is a reasonably good film from being excellent. Plot first…

Review of Papadopoulos & Sons (2012)

By Peter C (1,037) on 05 May 2013

Simple, gentle, mildly amusing (a bit like myself - sober) comedy about a wealthy businessman who loses everything but in so doing rediscovers…

Review of Potiche (1983)

By Peter C (1,037) on 07 Apr 2013

Review of Welcome to the Punch (2013)

By Peter C (1,037) on 07 Apr 2013

Welcome To The Punch... Shouting, tyre screeching, gunfire, brooding and a pulsating score fails to make up for a lack of depth and danger…
