British Comedy month 4 – Bean
Bean, also known as Bean: The Movie, or Bean: The Ultimate Disaster Movie, is my favourite memory of seeing a movie in theatres. Why? Because I went with my entire extended family on my mom’s side. Long story short, I … Continue reading

Fantastic Four month 4 – Fan4stick
Nope, I’m not giving this movie the dignity of calling it by its actual title. It doesn’t deserve it. After Rise of the Silver Surfer disappointed at the box office (despite still making a profit), 20th Century Fox waited until … Continue reading

Hollywood Epics 2 – Cleopatra (1963)
Apart from this movie being recommended to me by a co-worker who’s got a very similar taste in movies to me, I came into this movie almost completely blind. Not only have I never seen this movie before, but I … Continue reading

Home Alone movies 6 – Home Sweet Home Alone
Looking back at the previous Home Alone movies, the original is a great movie overall – no major complaints. Home Alone 2’s only real problem is that it borrows a bit too much from the first one, but it’s still … Continue reading

Home Alone movies 5 – The Holiday Heist
After the complete disaster that was Home Alone 4, you think they’d put this series to rest. But no, there are still two more movies to get through. Home Alone: The Holiday Heist wisely drops the McCallister storyline though, seeing … Continue reading
