January 14, 2018 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Starring: Dylan O'Brien, Michael Keaton, Taylor Kitsch, Sanaa Lathan
Director: Michael Cuesta
Running Time: 111 mins
Certificate: 18
Release Date: January 15th 2018 (UK)

Mitch Rapp (Dylan O’Brien) is just a normal guy until his world is turned upside down when terrorists storm a beach he’s on, shooting him and kill his fiancée. After that he becomes obsessed with hunting down the bad guys and making them pay. Initially he tries to do this by himself, until he’s pulled into a CIA programme and trained by Stan Hurley (Michael Keaton) to be able to go into the field and take the terrorists down.

He gets pulled into something deeper and potentially even deadly when an investigation into some seemingly random attacks leads them to a mysterious operative. Even worse, that operative may have a nuclear bomb. [Read more…]

New Maze Runner: The Death Cure Trailer – Can Dylan O’Brien and co. beat WCKD?

December 8, 2017 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

After being delayed by an accident which saw production put on hiatus for months after star Dylan O’Brien was severely injured after being hit by a car on set, Maze Runner: The Death Cure is now on its way. We’ll have to hope that after the issues it faced, it’s more like the fun and entertaining first film than the slightly tedious and trying-too-hard sequel.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘In the epic finale to the Maze Runner saga, Thomas leads his group of escaped Gladers on their final and most dangerous mission yet. To save their friends, they must break into the legendary Last City, a WCKD-controlled labyrinth that may turn out to be the deadliest maze of all. Anyone who makes it out alive will get answers to the questions the Gladers have been asking since they first arrived in the maze.’

Take a look at the new trailer below, along with some new character posters. The film arrives in cinemas on January 26th. [Read more…]

Maze Runner: The Death Cure Trailer – Can Dylan O’Brien and co. beat WCKD?

September 25, 2017 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

After being delayed by an accident which saw production put on hiatus for months after star Dylan O’Brien was severely injured after being hit by a car on set, Maze Runner: The Death Cure is now on its way. We’ll have to hope that after the issues it faced, it’s more like the fun and entertaining first film than the slightly tedious and trying-too-hard sequel.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘In the epic finale to the Maze Runner saga, Thomas leads his group of escaped Gladers on their final and most dangerous mission yet. To save their friends, they must break into the legendary Last City, a WCKD-controlled labyrinth that may turn out to be the deadliest maze of all. Anyone who makes it out alive will get answers to the questions the Gladers have been asking since they first arrived in the maze.’

“It’s a heist movie this time,” says director Wes Ball. “It picks up six months after the last movie, where we started in the desert, and then we come into the world of WCKD, which is a city: The Last City.”

The series started in the Glade, a lush open space surrounded on all sides by giant walls, and beyond them the maze that kept them prisoner. For the group of young people trapped in the Glade, with no memory of who they once were or why they were there, breaking out was their first priority. “But now, they’re breaking into walls, almost an inverse of the maze, and they have to get answers and out-maneuver every obstacle thrown their way,” Ball says, “We get to see the other side of the universe and come full circle.”

Take a look at the trailer below. The film arrives in cinemas in January. [Read more…]

Deepwater Horizon (Blu-ray Review) – Mark Wahlberg faces a real-life maritime disaster

January 29, 2017 By Tim Isaac 1 Comment

Starring: Dylan O'Brien, John Malkovich, Kate Hudson, Kurt Russell, Mark Wahlberg
Director: Peter Berg
Running Time: 107 mins
Certificate: 12
Release Date: January 30th 2017 (UK)

In 2010 the worst maritime oil spill ever took place in the Gulf Of Mexico, after an explosion on the Deepwater Horizon drilling platform. At the time, the media was so fixated on the oil that it was easy to overlook the fact that the initial disaster on Deepwater Horizon was truly cataclysmic and resulted in the deaths of 11 people.

Peter Berg’s movie sets out to redress the balance somewhat, depicting what happened on the platform and the horrific events the survivors endured. [Read more…]

First Look At Dylan O’Brien Playing Mitch Rapp In American Assassin

September 13, 2016 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

american-assassin-dylan-obrienDylan O’Brien has had a tough year. He was seriously injured on the set of The Maze Runner follow-up, The Death Cure, which resulted in a lengthy hospital stay and recuperation. However, it hasn’t stopped his star rising, as along with the Maze Runner movies and TV’s Teen Wolf, he’s taking on the lead in American Assassin, which may end up becoming a franchise.

The first image from the movie has now been released, featuring OBrien as Mitch Rapp.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘Two decades after the Cold War, Islamic terrorism is on the rise, and CIA Operations Director Thomas Stansfield forms a new group of clandestine operatives—men who do not exist—to meet this burgeoning threat abroad before it reaches America’s shores. Stansfield’s protégée, Irene Kennedy, finds the ideal candidate in the wake of the Pan Am Lockerbie terrorist attack. Among the thousands grieving the victims is Mitch Rapp, a gifted college athlete, who wants only one thing: retribution. Six months of intense training prepares him to devastate the enemy with brutal efficiency, leaving a trail of bodies from Istanbul and across Europe, to Beirut. But there, the American assassin will need every ounce of skill and cunning to survive the war-ravaged city and its deadly terrorist factions.’

Michael Keaton, Taylor Kitsch, and Sanaa Lathan also star, with Michael Cuestra directing. The film, based on Vince Flynn’s Mitch Rapp novels, will be in cinemas next year.
