I went to see the new Star Trek film at the Genesis for a second time. It is very rare for me to do this but I thought this was a film that deserved a second viewing. The last time I did this was for the Lord of the Rings films, which I enjoyed much […]

I did it. I went to see Star Trek. Was it as good as I wanted it to be? No, it could never be. Is it a good film? It is a bloody great film.
JJ Abrams’ Star Trek reboot is a masterpiece of SF […]
Today is the day. I will be visiting the cinema this evening to see the most eagerly anticipated movie of the year, for me anyway. At 8.30 tonight I will be sitting on the front row of Screen 1 in Mile End Road’s Genesis Cinema. Guess which film it is. Go on. No, not Hanna […]
