Blackfish is a scary movie. Not in the traditional sense, where a demonic force continues to harass or torment or a serial killer chases attractive woman around large houses, but in a way that is much more jarring. Blackfish is scary … Continue reading Blackfish (2013) Review
Interstellar suffers from overreaching with it’s grand idea. It tries to be very clever and make a bold statement. There is nothing wrong with this but when it is realised and executed as poorly as it is here, you end … Continue reading Interstellar (2014) Review
