Jonah Hex Review: Cursed

JONAH HEX (15): On General Release Friday 3rd September

Sometimes reviewers can be quite harsh, but let me assure you, we love movies and are willing to give almost anything a chance (sorry Shank). Having said that, after seeing the posters and trailers for Jonah Hex, I found myself saying, “Megan Fox! She’s an actress? She’s barely a human”. Which is fine because Jonah Hex is barely a movie.

Set in the old West of 1876, the time of America’s centennial, Jonah Hex (Josh Brolin) is a gruff bounty hunter whose scarred visage can be seen on wanted posters everywhere he goes. Hex is out for revenge on the man who not only gave him his scar but killed his wife and child; Quentin Turnbull (John Malkovich), his psychotic commanding officer. Do It!

Dead Man Running Review: A Load Of Cockney

DEAD MAN RUNNING: On General Release 30th October 2009

When I heard that 50 ‘Fiddy’ Cent was going to be in a new British gangster movie I was all atwitter.

When I heard Danny Dyer was going to be playing the same character he always does in a new British gangster movie, I just sighed.

Though Dyer doesn’t break knew ground in Alex De Rakoff’s Dead Man Running, he does play second fiddle this time around to Tamer Hassan. Do It!
