The image of Frodo Baggins slicing off the scalp of a defenceless, bound-up female is not one you see every day, nor would you wish to.
There have now been four films set in the Lord of the Rings universe, and viewers have developed certain expectations which must be fulfilled. Large, breath-taking views of the landscape and statues? Check. Memorable lines of significance, delivered in hauntingly calm voices? Check. CGI creatures which will either disgust us or fill us with awe?…
A new trailer for Marvel and Twentieth Century Fox’s The Wolverine has been released.

This new film from Cristian Mungiu was awarded both the Best Female Actor and Best Screenplay awards at Cannes 2012 for its depiction of a real life tragedy that unfolded in a small religious community in Romania. Two friends who grew up together in an orphanage are reunited after years apart. One has taken orders…
Considering it is from Mary Harron, the director of American Psycho, The Moth Diaries is surprisingly inept at doing anything very remarkable. Based on Rachel Klein’s highly praised novel from 2002, the film is a Canadian/UK co-production set in an American girls boarding school.

The Hangover Part II did very well financially. It was horrible and offensive and vulgar, but it made a lot of money. Like the first film, it was sickeningly racist and homophobic, but on a bigger, nastier, more epic scale. It gave viewers a pretty good idea of what type of person director Todd Phillips…
