Monthly Archives: January 2016
A Touch of Sin (2013) [Review]
Director Jia Zhangke brings together 4 short stories based on actual real life struggles, set within varying areas of modern-day China. Each one meanders along the mundanity of their current […]
Creed (2015) [Review]
I’ll preface this by stating that I’ve never really been into the Rocky films. I’ve seen them all, perhaps not in the right order, but there’s only so much of an incoherent Stallone […]
The Goob (2015) [Review]

Manchurian Candidate (2004) [Review]
Jonathan Demme and Denzel Washington team up for the remake of John Frankenheimer’s classic of the same name, The Machurian Candidate. Remakes can be tricky business, especially when there doesn’t […]
Wild Tales (2015) [Review]
Breaking into my Top 10 for the entire year, Wild Tales is an anthology like no other. 6 short stories, with no connection, apart from the reoccurring theme of insanity […]
