The trailer for Star Wars Episode 7 – The Force Awakens, has landed and John Boyega pays a…

‘Epic looking’ is the phrase, and featuring great trailer music, especially at the beginning. Something tells me that writer/director J.J. Abrams is going to make serious fans very proud indeed.

Time for me to get moving and watching the previous films if I don’t want to be completely clueless for what is likely the biggest film event of the year, if not of all time.

Release Date (s): December 17th 2015 (UK), December 18th 2015 (US)…

Happy Film loving,

EX MACHINA (2015): Vikander’s Portrayal Will Leave You Wanting More…

Ex Machina comes from writer/director, Alex Garland, and stars the talented Alicia Vikander, Domhnall Gleeson and Oscar Isaac.

I honestly don’t want to say too much about this rather note-worthy film, except that you should watch it because you’ll have no regrets afterwards. Ex Machina is a sci-fi drama about artificial intelligence. It’s a film with three key characters, one of whom is a beautiful and very smart female A.I.

Ex Machina is well-written and delivers many tension-filled moments to keep you locked in; moments that happen to be brilliantly partnered with just the right musical score.

You will get to the end and want to know immediately when the sequel is coming. Sadly, I don’t have the answer to that question. Nor do I have any knowledge of whether a sequel is even planned. But, surely, live in hope, we must.

Happy Film Loving,

STAR WARS EPISODE 7 – THE FORCE AWAKENS (2015): I May Just Feel It

I love movies, but I do confess that there are some highly regarded films I’ve never watched – and a few more I may never seriously consider watching. Unfortunately, all Star Wars films have always fallen into this category.

The truth is, fantasy is simply not my favourite genre. In fact, I was quite sure I’d probably never get to watch a single Star Wars film. Unless…
…I met a really impassioned fan who somehow finally managed to convince me to put my aversion to fantasy movies aside.

What I didn’t count on was that, said fan might just be new Star Wars writer/director J.J. Abrams.

I didn’t actually meet him, by the way. However, I have seen the first 60 seconds of the new Star Wars Episode 7 – The Force Awakens teaser trailer.

I’m making no promises, of course. But when that next trailer does arrive, attention, I will certainly pay.

Happy Film Loving,
