Snatch

Brad Pitt as a one-punch gypsy, Jason Statham being his casual self, Vinnie Jones as your typical bad guy. All under the lead of one director, Guy Ritchie.
The movie's an all rounder British comedy beautifully executed. I must say that Brad Pitt takes his role in this movie to a whole other level being a gypsy. He's just painfully funny especially with that accent of his. He absolutely has it on point!
Snatch is the perfect choice if you wanna sit back and enjoy a good laugh after a long day at work/uni and take it all the way back to the end of the 20th century. Although I must give you a fair warning to turn on the subtitles once Brad starts talking. You won't be able to follow if you just use your ears for this. If you're up for a challenge, trying making a game out of it by jotting down what you think he said, compare answers with whoever you're watching it with, then see who's right! I betcha you'll find many cases when none of you got it right.
Get your corn popping, glasses filling and ice-creams scooping because this will be guaranteed to keep your jaws hurting for a good couple o'hours. (That's why you'll need to stretch them with food prior to the movie).

Fate of the Furious

The wait has finally come to an end, the latest from the F&F series is finally here! This movie is an absolute blockbuster, passing a billion dollars at the global box office and shattering the previous record that The Force Awakens has set. The movie still keeps its style with car chases and cool explosions here and there, not to mention the anticipated fight scenes between the toughest characters. Going into the movie with the trailer in mind, the combination of the two really sinks in and blends beautifully. If you're an F&F die hard fan, then prepare yourself for your movie of the year. The Fate of The Furious had a perfect combination of drama, action, and comedy. The romantic drama with Dom &Letty, the energetic rivalry between Hobbs & Deckard, and of course the bursting comedy between Tej and Roman. All of these factors mash up to provide the viewers with a guaranteed brilliant cinematic experience. As a true fan myself, I had many...

Indiana Jones - Raiders of the Lost Ark

Taking it back to another old school movie this week; Indiana Jones Raiders of the Lost Ark. I first watched this movie when I was about 12 and have watched it countless times since and could watch it a million times more. This movie keeps you hooked from beginning to end with an incredible and upbeat soundtrack, fast paced adventure, incredible fight scenes and successive suspenseful, death-defying cliff-hangers. The special effects are amazing for the time period the movie was made, and the fact that old school methods (no CGI) were used to create the special effects makes this movie that much more remarkable. Like many other action movies, Raiders also has a bit of romance thrown in there. However, unlike other movies where the female lead is often a damsel in distress who constantly needs rescuing, in Raiders the female lead, Marion, is a hardcore and formidable woman who can definitely take care of herself. Now of course I can’t write about Raider without mentioning...

The School Of Rock

If you haven’t guessed by now, my favourite types of movies are those with amazing sound tracks. So sticking with that theme, let’s talk about The School of Rock. This musical comedy follows the story of a rock musician Dewey, played by Jack Black, who gets kicked out of his band and then impersonates his roommate, a substitute teacher at a prep school, to make some cash. Soon after, Dewey discovers the kids are amazing musicians and teaches them the ways of rock, in an attempt to win Battle of the Bands and the accompanying prize money.  The sound track to this movie is filled with some great classic rock songs including “Back in Black” by AC/DC, “Immigrant Song” by Led Zeppelin and “Edge of Seventeen” by Stevie Nicks. The other thing I love about the soundtrack in this movie is that it showcases the amazing talent of young musicians. And of course, they couldn’t have cast a better actor/musician main character; Jack Black’s energy, comedic facial expressions and musi...
