Bizarre (DVD Review)

October 21, 2016 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Starring: Pierre Prieur, Adrian James, Raquel Nave, Rebekah Underhill, Charlie Himmelstein
Director: Étienne Faure
Running Time: 98 mins
Certificate: 18
Release Date: October 10th 2016 (UK)

Despite being set in Brooklyn, Bizarre is as French as both its director and lead actor. That means it’s a little pretentious, a tad peculiar, not always easy to access, and has some full-frontal nudity thrown in for good measure. However, there’s enough there to hold the interested viewer’s attention.

Maurice is a young Frenchman who’s had something bad happen at home and ended up in New York. He’s taken in by two women, Kim and Betty, working in their alternative burlesque bar, Bizarre, and living in their flat above. He becomes almost the mascot of the club, and also catches the eye of fellow bar worker, Luka. After Maurice spends a night in the women’s bed, he and Luka ending up sharing a room, although things are more chaste than Luka might like. [Read more…]

The Ways Of Man (DVD Review)

October 12, 2016 By Tim Isaac 1 Comment

Starring: Marc Garcia Coté, Oriol Pla
Director: Gemma Ferraté
Running Time: 70 mins
Certificate: 12
Release Date: October 10th 2016 (UK)

Do you like movies about one man following another man around in the woods? Well, if you do, this if your lucky day! Without any context, that’s pretty much all this slightly experimental movie is from beginning to end.

There is a little bit more to it than that though, as this is a modern reimagining of what happened to Judas Iscariot after he betrayed Jesus, and took thirty pieces of silver for doing it. Here we have a hoodie-wearing Judas, filled with angst and pain over what he’s done. [Read more…]

Warcraft: The Beginning (Blu-ray Review)

October 10, 2016 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Starring: Travis Fimmel, Paul Patton, Toby Kebbell, Ben Schnetzer, Ben Foster
Director: Duncan Jones
Running Time: 122 mins
Certificate: 12
Release Date: October 10th 2016 (UK)

In the last few years, Hollywood has become increasingly obsessed with the fast-growing Chinese market. Warcraft: The Beginning is ample evidence as to why that is. The movie was a massive flop in the US, grossing less than $50 million there on a $160 million budget. However, it made over $220 million in China, meaning that instead of being one of the biggest box office disasters ever, they’re now thinking of making a sequel.

The disparity between the US and China reception of this movie is a bit difficult to explain. While American audiences certainly had a lot of choice this summer, it’s a surprise a few more didn’t choose this film, as it’s quite fun. [Read more…]
