Yesterday I went to see the U2 3D movie at cinema Roy, which has been reopened and refurnished with 3D equipment. While I'm not the biggest U2 fan in the world it was still quite entertaining to wear the silly 3D glasses. At one point some in the audience joined...
The movie year of 2007 was actually quite good, but there are a few gems coming up in 2008. Cloverfield I don't think it's nearly as good as the hype claims, but gotta see it anyway. Jumper It seems like a weird mix of Kurt Wagner and Highlander. Love it!...
2007 was an interesting year with several great titles, quite better than 2006. Here are my picks: Pans Labyrinth The Fountain Blood Diamond This Is England The Departed Stardust 300 Death Proof Apocalypto Hot Fuzz Click on the above links to read my reviews (Swedish). The next year will kickstart...
The culling of cinemas in my home town continues. After the tragic demise of Victoria and Draken (even though it still lives as a host for the annual cinema festival) the time has come to two old friends: Downtown and Palladium. I actually won't miss Downtown that much, since it...
Viral marketing campaigns are hot these days. I wrote some time ago about the viral marketing of Nine Inch Nails for their new album. Upcoming movies seems to really attract this kind of campaign, since movie fans love to analyze and dissect clues about the film. I remember the hype...
It's time for the annual Razzie awards, just like last year. It's usually a lot more entertaining than the politically correct Academy Awards which is held the day after the Razzies. Not very surprisingly, Basic Instinct 2 tops the list so far. I'm also happy to see that the pretentious...
After the somewhat disappointing movie year of 2006, what do we see at the horizon? 300 Clearly the most anticipated film of next year. Frank Miller is back on the screen and the trailers are absolutely gorgeous. Hot Fuzz The team from excellent zombie movie Shaun of the dead is...
Last year had several easy picks for the top ten list of 2005, and this year was not much different. My nominees are: V for Vendetta Match Point X-Men 3: The Last Stand Silent Hill Pirates of the Caribbean 2: Dead Man's Chest Casino Royale Night Watch Walk the Line...
Jim Emerson recently compiled a list of 102 Movies You Must See. As always, these lists are very personal and by nature never written in an objective fashion. Since he had the guts to include Mad Max 2, I felt compelled to write my own list. I also felt that...
Time for the Razzie Awards 2006! I remember last year when Halle Berry actually showed up to accept her award for Worst Actress in Catwoman. The starting field is not as great (or bad) as last year, but there are a few gems such as Jessica Alba (nominated Worst Actress...
After the great movie year of 2005, what do we see at the horizon? V for Vendetta I already suspect that this movie adaptation of my favourite graphic novel by Alan Moore will be the most outstanding cinema experience of 2006. Pirates of the Caribbean 2 - Dead man's chest...
This year has been a lot more predictable than the ethereal 2004 with several eagerly awaited titles. Unfortunately there aren't any real surprises here, except that I actually liked Corpse Bride better than Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. These are my nominees: Star Wars Episode 3: Revenge of the Sith...
Now this was among the most unpredictable news I've heard in a while. After a decade of really awful productions (not that any of his eighties' movies are any good, either), Stallone returns to the basics and goes for a revitalization of the two characters that made him famous: Rocky...
Uwe Boll is back with another computer game movie adaption. Maybe some of you rememember the fairly decent game Dungeon Siege, a sword-and-sorcery tale with the usual ingredients. Currently in pre-production, it will start shooting next week with the new title In the Name of the King. Boll has managed...
Finally it's time for the 29th Göteborg Film Festival! Me and the love started with a humble booking of six movies this time, but judging from past years there will be additional bookings as soon as the first buzz reviews reaches my pointy ears. The cinema Draken which is the...
Finally the nominees for the 2005 Razzie Awards are in! This is often more interesting than the more well-known rub-my-back-evening (a.k.a. Academy Award Oscars). A few of them were really obvious, such as Schwarzenegger's Worst Supporting Actor for Around the world in 80 days (read my review for the full...
After the great movie year of 2004, what do we see at the horizon? Star Wars Episode 3: Return of the Sith No matter what kind of trash George drops onto us this time, this is it. Not even Jar-Jar can spoil this experience. This movie will most likely suck...
It's amazing how much time of your life being spent in the cinema or in front of a widescreen tv. A brief count revealed that I had seen roughly 150 films in 2004. Maybe that will explain my lack of tan? This year has seen a lot of great films,...
As the first snow of the year settled on the unsuspecting drivers in rush traffic, I sat on the tram and happened to see two girls in front of me who was playing with dolls. Well, action figures to be correct. They each had a figure of Elastigirl from The...
While in Stockholm we went to the premiere of Alien vs Predator. I have been looking forward to this movie ever since that alien skull was included in the spaceship trophy room in Predator 2, fourteen years ago (gasp, am I really that old?). But it was not an alien...
A funny coincidence that both me and Don Box happened to watch Shaun of the dead on the same day. Anyway, here's my review....
In a galaxy not so far away the Star Wars OT has finally arrived in a eagerly anticipated DVD collector's box. However, the owls are not what they seem. Be aware of the fact that these versions are the special editions, re-released in 1997, clotted along with new horrific modifications....
