Deadly Outlaw Rekka A yakuza boss is murdered, prompting a psychotic clan member to go to war with the killers, only to be betrayed by his own people. Takashi Mike's yakuza film has a great strong opening and some great action sequences, sadly there are times where the gaps between the sequences can be long. Still worth a watch.

deadpool2_movie_poster_uk_quad-628x471.jpg Loved it! Good action sequences, violence, and loads of quick fire jokes. Looking good this time around are Cable and Domino who are joined by X-Men Colossus and Negasonic Teenage Warhead from the first movie. *WARNING* It is possible that some of your enjoyment may be spoilt by other cinema patrons who will laugh out loud and long at EVERY FECKING MINOR JOKE AND HUMOROUS ON SCREEN MOMENT!!! |

CRUCIBLE OF HORROR AKA THE VELVET HOUSE, this UK psychological horror was filmed in 1969 but not released until 1971. In it, Yvonne Mitchell stars as a wife who, along with her daughter ( played by Sharon Gurney ) get fed up with husband Michael Gough's abusive treatment and decide to bump him off for good. However, things don't go quite to plan and before you know it, we're into Diaboliques territory. I've always wanted this one on shiny disc and Scream Factory's blu ray looks wonderful. ESTIGMA A teenage boy has Carrie - like powers in Jose Larraz's eerie horror / thriller. I like Larraz as a director - his movies always have a unique feel to them and ESTIGMA is similarly eerie and strange. Fans of Alexandra Bastedo will enjoy this one too. The bad news is that this disc from Dorado ( part of a Larraz double bill ) falls way below what we've come to expect from blu ray. It's still perfectly watchable and it's great to see more obscure titles like this getting a release, but I'm keen to see what Arrow will do with their ( rumoured ) upcoming Larraz titles. |

War for The Planet Of The Apes 2017 After being attacked and betrayed by some apes and a big loss, Ceasar vows revenge on the colonel who killed his family and forcing apes to become slaves. This is not the best installment to the franchise, the movie does tend togo slow then the pace builds up then slow again. Woody Harrleson's performance as the colonel wasnt his best, its like he was told, "yeah theres the camera you stand there and act wooden". Andy serkis does return as Ceasar and makes things look more creative than the previous films and more protective of his young son Cornelius. Steve Zahn appears as Bad Ape, who seeks more apes but is more cheeky/comedy act that helps to keep us entertained. 6.5 out of 10.

I enjoyed "War" when i saw it at the cinema but not seen it since. From memory i'd probably give it an 8/10. I really liked it but still think "Dawn" is the best of the new series.

I grew up watching the originals, and although the "Burton" remake had good make up it was a mess. The new series is much better with "Dawn" probably being my second favourite apes story after the original film.
