Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light
As the new Lara Croft took E3 by storm, I played through this Co-op game to see what makes Lara Croft one of the most admired series. Guardian of Light is an Action/Adventure game which features 2 player co-op, probably the best part of the game. The...

Men In Black III
The Men in Black return for hopefully not the final of this series. Men in Black III has a strange plot: A maniacally evil alien has escaped prison, and is going back to the past to help himself beat Agent K (Tommy Lee Jones) in the 60s. When K ceases...

The Bourne Legacy
It has been some time since Jason Bourne made that dive into the water, and unsurprisingly the trilogy has another sequel, focusing on another agent. It's a clever and ultimately obvious move to do this, and setting it within the third film means it can...

Taken 2
It seems like it’s going to be the best thing ever, right? Neeson back into arguably his most awesome character, in Istanbul, the go-to place for action films (James Bond anyone?). But sadly it is not. Or at least, from a proper perspective, its not....

Robocop
The new reboot for the 1987 film of a disabled police cop who is revived and given robotic limbs to become a new type of cyborg cop is very flashy, but comes short regarding some of the key ideas. Joel Kinnaman, as Robocop, gives a rather robotic performance,...

Hotline Miami
Any game in which you can run around with your bare fists punching people in a chicken mask deserves praise, but Hotline Miami goes beyond this to make an even better game. Hotline Miami’s style is one so bizarre that it barely fits in a sentence; The...

Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows
The sequel to Sherlock Holmes doesn't change the formula - with the same sequence of a fight scene seen in Holmes' brain and then in real life. This technique in the first film was fabulous, never done before; but in the second it gets tiresome, and you...

Chronicle
Chronicle is one of the best sci-fi films that I've seen in some time. Its use of camera and effects are great, even if these techniques have been used before. The film is pretty simple; its about 3 teenagers obtaining the power of telekinesis (levitation)...
