Kingsman: The Golden Circle
September 23, 2017
Kingsman: The Golden Circle – It starts out with technology meeting Keystone Kops meeting 50s-loving, crazy drug lady Poppy (Julianne Moore) and then it gets ridiculous.

Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy
January 19, 2012
Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy – I’ve never considered myself the brightest bulb in the chandelier but I did not have a clue about this movie. It’s based on John Le Carre’s book, which is supposed to be excellent and which I’ve not read. George Smiley (Gary Oldman) is a retired British intelligence agent who is […]
The King’s Speech
January 6, 2011
The best movie I’ve seen this year and that’s not just because it’s also the first. This is a great movie. Not a stodgy British thing, but a real human story of King George VI who has a stuttering problem. Who knew, well, who cared, really. Colin Firth makes you care – you feel his […]
