A Few Best Men Unrated

This would have to be the Aussie/British version of The Hangover, and while it's probably not as good it's certainly got the laughs! Lead by a great cast there is plenty to keep you entertained, especially with the funny (even thought somewhat unlikable) characters. The cast does a great job, with Olivia N-J in a few particular hilarious scenes :P Overall a great job and it's bound to please the right audiences :)

Men in Black III PG-13

MIB fans will just love the third installment, and we've been waiting for a while now for it to come out and boy has it delivered! Will & Tommy are back, of course, this time joined by Josh Brolin as the younger version of Agent K. There is so much action & more great laughs, and quite possibly one of the funniest & likable characters in Griffin (played by Michael Stulhberg). Overall an impressive addition to the series and its bound to be a hit with audiences worldwide.

The Loved Ones Unrated

The Loved Ones is a brilliant Australian Horror and easily one of my all-time favourite films thanks to the storyline, characters and the brilliant actors portraying them! Director and Writer Sean Byrne has really created an Aussie gem that no Horror fan should miss out on as we watch Brent enter a world of terror as he is held captive from a crazed Father and his daughter Lola determied to have the ideal prom at home, where Brent is everything she desires! Can Brent escape this sadistic world before its too late? Robin McLeavy. Where do I start with this talented young actress that has portrayed one of the most evil girls in Horror history! While Xavier Samuel is fantastic as Brent its really Robin that steals the show and she does an outstanding job. Props must also go to John Brumpton that does a smashing job as her equally twisted Father. While the other actors are great also they aren't in comparrison to the three leads that easily steal the show just like they are meant to. Nothing spells terror more like an innocent high school student held captive at his fellow classmate's ideal prom at home. The idea was just brilliant and portrayed perfectly thanks to such an intriguing storyline and character you both loved and hated at the same time. While obviously being villains I couldn't help but want to find out more about Lola, Daddy and even Bright Eyes as they were such an interesting family, while being totally twisted at the same time. Visually the film also looked fantastic, especially the scenes at the dinner table. Overall The Loved Ones is a brilliant film and one I would highly reccomend to any Horror fan out there. Its a sick and twisted ride but one you're bound to love, and its certainly a film you won't forget anytime soon!

Orphan R

Orphan is a brilliant Thriller about a mysterious little girl called Esther; a character that is bound to have a massive impact on you while watching! Its easily one of my favourite films, if not my all-time favourite. After losing her third child through a bad pregnancy, Kate and John adopt Esther from an orphanage and she settles into her new home with their other two children Daniel and Max. Soon enough things start to go wrong and Esther always seems to be the one who is there when trouble occurs. Curious, Kate decides to dig deeper into Esther's past and discovers that Esther isn't all that she seems and that she is hiding a deep and dark secret, but Esther is always one step ahead and will make sure that she doesn't get discovered. We must start with young Isaballe Fuhrman who has portrayed one of the most evil characters of all-time perfectly. This talented young actress surely has a bright future! Vera Farmiga plays Kate, the children's Mother, very well and really shines in the more violent scenes. Peter Sarsgaard also played the role of Kate's husband John well despite the character being so dumfounded to Esther's evil ways. Props must also go to young Aryana Engineer, who doesn't only play deaf character Max, but is deaf in real life also. She is very good in this film! From start to finish this film will have you on the edge of your seat, especially once these hidden secrets start to get revealed! Orphan is easily one of my favourites of the genre, and now that I have seen it a second time I'm still in love with it. Esther will now join the ranks of many evil film characters as she is just that; pure evil! The film peaks at all the right moments and has everything to keep the viewer hooked and guessing right 'til the very end! The final scenes are also very intense! Overall Orphan is outstanding and one I would highly reccomend to anyone! I had a feeling it would be good but never expected it to be this great and for me to have it as one of my all-time favourites.
