Dogma (1999)
Rating: ★★★½
Nov 18, 1999Angel War/Catholic Irreverence
Kevin Smith makes a film about Catholicism. Smith's irreverent humour caused considerable controversy when the film came out, although this is also an interesting and thoughtful work that does make a number of thoughtful theological points

Riverworld (2003)
Rating: ★
Nov 22, 2008All of Humanity Resurrected on an Alien Planet
The first adaptation of Philip Jose Farmer's series of novels where every person who ever lived is resurrected on an alien planet is given an abysmal treatment as a tv movie that ditches and rewrites major aspects of the books

Live Free or Die Hard (2007)

Live Free or Die Hard (2007)
Rating: ★★
Aug 17, 2007Action Film/Socially Catastrophic Hack Attack
The fourth of the Die Hard films and the only one that enters genre territory with Bruce Willis fighting a catastrophic hack attack that disables the entire US. By now, what was originally an enjoyably gritty action film has been pumped up with over-the-top action sequences that frequently defy credulity

Teen Titans: The Judas Contract (2017)
Rating: ★★½
Dec 8, 2017Animation/Comic-Book Superheroes
The Teen Titans get their first solo film in the DC Universe Original Animated Movies. A reasonable adventure based on a classic comic title that works with a good story and characterisation, even if some of it has an adult flavour that makes you wonder who the audience is

Rating: ★★★
Feb 20, 2022Videogamers vs Unleashed Demonic Entity
Videogamers fight a demonic entity unleashed from a 1980s game. A film that is far more fun that you expect and comes loaded with videogaming in-jokes
