Carrie (2013) - whilst watchable, this sticks a little too closely to the original to be truly worthwhile, even regurgitating chunks of the script at times. Chloe Moretz puts in a decent performance...

Knock Knock
I watched this with a couple of mates, pizza and beer, which is probably appropriate given the calibre of the film! The plot revolves around a middle class, middle aged man (Keanu...

Watched 'The Guest' last night. I thought this was a compelling, taut thriller in the first half and, whilst it did lose it slightly after the 'big reveal', there was still enough action to keep me...

In Country - this has all the trappings of the 80's and, as such, can come across a little cheesy and lacking in subtlety in parts but I still enjoyed it a lot. I find films about the Vietnam war...
