All in Screen Nation
Sequels. Cinematic universes. Movie franchises. Call it what you want, but for avid cinephiles or casual moviegoers, this is the reality we have to live with now. What makes some movie franchises successful, and what makes others flaming bags of garbage?
The VOLVO Scandinavian Film Fest is back again for another year and we are running a very special giveaway.
We're more than half way through the year already, but it's not all bad. Here our top picks to see at the cinemas this month!
The best thing about "Meal Tickets" is that we're privy to a group of young, dumb, full-of-cum dreamers slowly acquiesce to being one of the millions who never got their big break; there's a raw poignancy to that, a unique quality which makes this 90 something minute documentary worth the price of a ticket.
In Transformers: The Last Knight, the freak show has been toned down; there's precious little human bile forced down your throat this go around. Heck, there's even some attempts at respectability. Which is boring and nullifies the series' proudly nihilistic juvenile identity.
So, it's awful.
Wonder Woman is very much a coming-of-age movie about plunging into the deepest horrors of the world with hope -- and a grin, and with compassion.
While Chapter 1 was preoccupied with building its world by inundating us with specific rules that its characters have to abide by, "John Wick: Chapter 2" threatens to blow it all up by showing us what happens when those rules get broken.
For what it's worth, Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales is the most engaging installment of the movie franchise since the first one. Is that to say it's actually good, though? Well...
We bring you the lowdown on what we know so far about the reigning Stream King's first Australian Original series.
A Dog’s Purpose: Heartwarming, heartbreaking and trying just a little too hard.
When the pretentiousness and lowbrow gruesomeness intersect, Alien: Covenant proves to be a singularly haunting experience.
Welcome to your tape. In this episode, Rhys and Howie dive deep into the controversial hit Netflix teen drama "13 Reasons Why", and discuss the show's strengths, flaws, and the controversial depiction of its serious subject matter.
For our May edition of Movies of the Month, we've got books, franchises and even a highly intelligent Horror film - what more could you want!
Get Out succeeds as a genre-bender (what if the black guy in the horror movie was not only not a disposable victim but also a competent, intelligent protagonist?) and as an unflattering reflection of the most virulent strains of modern white wokeness
In this episode, we answer this important question in our massive (see what we did there) spoiler-filled debate of the Anne Hathaway-starring indie monster flick, Colossal.
We got a chance to speak with the WA-based producer about the film industry, 13 Reasons Why, and her new film, Bad Girl.
Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 is Marvel shuffling on shrooms. It's a more confident and bonkers romp, is what I'm saying, gleefully free from the narrative requirement of introducing each member of this ragtag gang of cosmic misfits.
In this episode of Spoiler Nation, street-racing enthusiasts Howie and Rhys break down the recent Marvel movie trailers before diving deep into the highly anticipated 8th instalment of the Fast and Furious franchise, The Fate of The Furious.
We were lucky enough to chat with Jeffrey Walker, director of the Dance Academy movie, who's been a part of the entertainment industry in one form or another since he was 6 years old.
