By: Daniel Chadwick-Shubat Shane Black is a fantastic writer. For me that is a fact that is undeniable. With the likes of Lethal Weapon, The Last Action Hero and The Long Kiss Goodnight all being penned by Black. But it wasn’t until Kiss Kiss Bang Bang that Black showed his directorial prowess as well. With The Nice Guys he has once again captured […]
High-Rise – A High Octane, Gory Experience
By: Daniel Chadwick-Shubat High-Rise is the typical Ben Wheatley movie. It’s super violent, really funny and its premise challenges the audience to actually think while watching it, which is a big plus in my mind. But the big difference with High-Rise is that Wheatley has been given a bigger budget and an amazing cast of well known actors […]

Captain America: Civil War – The Godfather of Superhero Movies
By: Daniel Chadwick-Shubat “Compromise where you can. Where you can’t, don’t. Even if everyone is telling you that something wrong is something right. Even if the whole world is telling you to move, it is your duty to plant yourself like a tree, look them in the eye, and say ‘No, you move!’.” Who knew […]
Classic Review: ’71 (2014)
By: Daniel Chadwick-Shubat In October of 2014 I ventured to the cinema in the UK (I was there on an exchange program). ’71 was a movie I had been following closely for months for two reasons. One it had one of the hottest new young actors in it in the form of Jack O’Connell. Secondly […]
Ranking Movies in the Marvel Cinematic Universe

But I like making the impossible possible. So here’s my attempt at not pissing off all Marvel fans and putting together my favourite Marvel movies up to now (it […]
Classic Review: Captain America: The Winter Soldier (2014)
By: Daniel Chadwick-Shubat From the moment Captain America kicked someone off a ship you knew this wouldn’t be a typical Marvel movie. As of late Marvel had been struggling with superhero movie fatigue and Marvel projects like Iron Man 3, Thor: The Dark World and Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D were not up to the standard that Marvel had established […]

Equals – A Sci-Fi Love Story Implodes
By: Daniel Chadwick-Shubat Produced by Ridley Scott, Equals is a Romeo/Juliet type love story. It’s plot is simple enough and it had the chance to stun its audiences with amazing story telling and the chance to one-up The Giver. Instead it leaves the audience feeling unsatisfied and uneducated as they leave the theater wondering, “What happened?!”. An […]

Everybody Wants Some!! – A Special Director Makes a Special Film
By: Matt Neglia Richard Linklater is a very special director. More so than many of his colleagues, he makes films that can be considered time capsules. They fully capture what it not only means to be human, but to be alive during a specific time period. He captures this through attitudes and feeling. He struck […]
