David Harbour plays a kick-ass Santa in the new action-comedy-thriller. If you hear that 87North Productions are involved in a movie, then you automatically know that the action scenes in that movie are going to be awesome. They originated from the stunt team that helped put together the action sequences for John Wick, Atomic Blonde, […]

Not quite a remake… not quite a sequel… It has been a minute since Scarlett Johansson has appeared in a new project. 2019 was a very busy year for the actress, as she appeared in Avengers: Endgame, and then featured in two huge Oscar-magnets, with Jojo Rabbit (for which she was nominated for Best Supporting […]

Oscar hopefuls, Christmas cheer (sort of) and maybe the biggest film of the year all arrive in the cinema in December. December is normally a very, VERY busy month for cinema goers.

If you’re looking for a properly brilliant two hours, here you go. How do you know your movie is probably very, very good?

It was – and still is – a truly landmark moment in cinema. It isn’t very often that a movie set in Ireland proves to be massively unpopular in Ireland, only to be picked up elsewhere in the world. But that is exactly what happened with The Crying Game, which fared poorly with critics and […]

TG4’s movie line-up over the Christmas break is quite impressive. Tis the season… for lots of movies. This is something that TG4 is very aware of!

This could be the first Netflix show that absolutely demands an immediate rewatch. Say what you will about Netflix, it can’t be said that they’re not – sometimes – willing to try new things, and upcoming show Kaleidoscope may well its most innovative venture yet.

While we wait for the new Bond to be announced, we’ve taken a look back at how the real world has collided with 007. Over the years, Bond movies have been heavily influenced by real-world events, but nowhere was that more evident than during Pierce Brosnan’s tenure as 007. The original plot of Tomorrow Never […]

The ending to this movie is truly unforgettable. Director Frank Darabont’s first movie was The Shawshank Redemption, still considered to be one of the greatest movies ever made.

Amongst the diners are […]

The lead choice of actor… we’re not so sure about. Out of all of the video games in the history of the medium, the one that seems like the most obvious for an adaptation for the big screen (or maybe a HBO series?) would be Grand Theft Auto. Or maybe because the plots of the […]

Fittingly, the game is released in December. Over the years, there have been some games that have caused some major controversy. Usually it is to do with explicit depictions of violence or sex, or glorifying criminal activities… y’know, the traditional stuff that video games get blamed on. However, I Am Jesus Christ: Prologue looks set […]

The Santa Clause and Toy Story star doesn’t always have great interactions with his younger fans.

This could have been something truly incredible. Horror movies, generally, are cheap. Saving a fortune on lighting alone, they usually consist of actors you’ve never heard of before, maybe one of them has a mask and a knife, and they’re maybe hanging out somewhere spooky. None of it really requires much money to pull off. […]

Quentin Tarantino, Heath Ledger and Robert Rodriguez all influenced the eventual masterpiece.

Our spoiler-free review ahead of the blockbuster’s release in Irish cinemas this week.

The much-anticipated sequel arrives on PlayStation this week. 2018’s God of War rebootquel was both a foregone conclusion and a total surprise.
