Review - The KIng Of Kong

There are times you'd swear you're watching the latest Christopher Guest film as many of the characters you come across in The King of Kong seem too Tap to be true.

Amongst the freaks and geeks of the Twin Galaxies universe - 'Gamer of the Century', Restaurateur and Hot Sauce maker Billy Mitchell steals the show with an ego far larger than any of the scores on show and the simple, but perfectly pitched story of underdog Steve Wiebe's battle for recognition as Donkey Kong hi-scorer against the egotistical gaming legend makes for one the best documentaries of recent years.

Review - 88 Minutes

If I said it was b*****ks - that would the only way to get 5 stars mentioned in the same breath of this film

Review - Tropic Thunder

Its no classic but the fake trailers and Cruise's fantastically sweary turn make it an entertaining enough hour and three quarters.

Review - Bigger Stronger Faster

This documentary borrows a lot stylistically from Michael Moore's efforts, but avoids the pitfalls of descending into the polemic that Moore often does.

The documentary presents the case for and against 'roid use - not exactly saying they're good, but highlighting their vilification against the contradictions present in ideologies from western culture towards other drugs and what it takes to achieve success in general.

Mmmm...Vinyl #1

Review - Pineapple Express

The excellent combination of James Franco and Seth Rogen make this film a success, but its still far from perfect - Hot Fuzz offers a better parody of action films and there are stoner comedies with a better focus (for the lack of a better word) on p...(read more) ot-based humour. Craig Robinson once again also shows he's one to look out for, stealing many of the scenes he features in - he should be the one to fill the Mac sized void in the mainstream in my view.

Review - Step Brothers

Painfully unfunny for too long, too often - this is one of the worst Will Ferrell films that comes across as a poor man's Dumb & Dumber for the most part.
