Film Review: 12 Years A Slave

Very few films leave an entire theatre in stunned silence when the credits start to roll. No giggling or gossiping, but complete and utter silence. 

12 Years A Slave however, did exactly that. The powerful, pulls-no-punches period drama from director Steve McQueen, which stars Chiwetel Ejiofor, Lupita Nyong'o, Michael Fassbender and Brad Pitt, is a striking and magnificent awards season powerhouse.

Rank the Films: X-Men

As any regular reader of feeling fuzzier will know, lists are pretty darn nifty. We have a profound appreciation for straight-up lists. This is the thinking behind Rank the Films, a regular feature that pulls apart the pros and cons of a series of films, ranking them in order of bad to good. 

In order to conicide with the release of Marvel's latest X-Men film, The Wolverine, I thought it was a good time to take a look at the franchise's back catalogue of films and settle upon which is the best and which is the worst.

Film Review: Prometheus

Ridley Scott's Prometheus

This review contains spoilers. Don't say you weren't warned!

Part prequel, part stand-alone feature, Prometheus is part triumphant return and part missed opportunity by director, Ridley Scott. With an impressive cast, a multitude of iconic images and a genuinely scary host of squelchy extra-terrestrials, Prometheus is a solid and impressive film.
