The TV and Film Guy's Reviews (Free subscription) | yesterday
Just because a film is a remake – or perhaps a movie based on a book that was already made into a movie – doesn't mean the film is destined to fail. To be less cryptic, The Taking of Pelham 1 2 3 (2009), directed by Tony Scott may not be a brilliant film (or terribly original), but it is a pretty exciting way to spend two hours. Featuring a star-packed cast led by Denzel Washington and...

Teaming up again with revered cameraman Chris Menges – for the first time on a feature since Kes , in 1969 – Loach is drawing to a close on his shoot of Route Irish in both Liverpool and Jordan. The film is about two security contractors in Iraq in love with the same girl back home. When one of...

I was amused at how chief N.Y. Times critics Tony Scott and Manohla Dargis gave the task of reviewing Chris Smith's Collapse (which opens today in Manhattan) not to second-stringer Stephen Holden but third-stringer Jeanette Catsoulis. It's only the scariest and most riveting doc of the year -- a theoretical portrait of the world's end that will suck the air out of whatever room you happen to be sitting...

The biggest DVD and Blu-ray release for this week is probably G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra. It pains me to know that this week some brave souls will give it another chance, while others will discover its sheer idiocy for the first time. If you're looking for something slightly better but still mediocre, you might try Tony Scott's remake of The Taking of Pelham 123. Other smaller releases for the week...

The return to Plymouth Argyle of winger Craig Noone was disappointing, if not unexpected, such has been his form since linking up with the Grecians on loan, and as a result it was perhaps inevitable that he would be recalled to Home Park. As someone who has always taken an interest in wingers and cannot understand any team not playing them, this goes back to the days when I first watched Exeter City....

G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra Here's my problem with the picture: a furiously-filmed chase through the streets of Paris should be spectacular and thrilling. Instead, it's incoherent, routine, even disappointing. Director Stephen Sommers ( The Mummy , Van Helsing ) turns in another by-the-numbers action spectacle, this time starring Dennis Quaid, Channing Tatum, Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje, Marlon Wayans,...

Well, I'm established in my hotel room in Dhaka, it was a long old day of travelling. Nearly 7 hours from London to Dubai on Saturday evening, then throw in a four-hour time difference, meant I had a Burger King for breakfast at Dubai airport at "8am" which was 4am as far as my stomach was concerned. I did take this photograph there, if you look above the cockpit of the aeroplane, you'll...

News came out this week that really surprised me, with the combination of the figure under the biographical microscope and the director attached to make the film, I was a bit surprised, nay even shocked. Let's see how you fair with the news. Tony Scott is going to be making a biographical film about the man who was responsible for creating The Chippendales, Steve Banerjee. Now while that single line...

The film True Romance is immediately recognizable as a Quentin Tarantino film even if it is directed by Tony Scott, who clearly gets the Hawkes-like dove-tailing dialogue and mostly understand the genre-splitting attitude. Some complain it's a little off-pitch, but the acting is fantastic and includes a great cast of extras, including Christopher Walken as Vincent Coccotti. Clearly, it's a shame Carlos...

YES! Director Tony Scott is now attached to a movie about the life and death of Steve Banerjee, creator of the Chippendales nightclubs. The film will chronicle the quick rise to riches for Banerjee when male strip clubs were popular in the 1980s up until his death while waiting for his trial in jail. A competitive [...]

The Taking of Pelham 123, this reincarnation of the original 1974 film directed by Tony Scott, kicks off on the right foot during the beginning and middle parts but then falls apart due to some of the worst script decisions imaginable.
