Martin's Film Page

By (Tuesday) Night, he is a member of the Mad Ferrets quiz team.
By day, he is a manager at a local cinema.
In theory then , he should know more than most about films...

 Here are his insightful reviews

 

Charlie's Angels

This film is everything that M:I - 2 wanted to be, it is funny, has good action sequences and a story line.  A big plus is the three 'angelic' stars, Cameron Diaz, Lucy Liu and Bill Murray, oh and Drew
Barrymore is in it as well!!.  - Charlie is a lucky man!.

 

 

Blair Witch 2

Gone as quickly as Halloween, won't put a spell on you - pants!

 

 

Billy Elliot

Put on your dancing shoes and sing the blues, good acting for a bunch of Geordies!.

 

 

What Lies Beneath

Good question, very confusing, good acting, but Harrison Ford... (I'm not going to write any more 'cos it'll spoil it - if it hasn't already!)

 

 

Coyote Ugly

Five hot chicks, shame they share the same brain cell.

 

  

Gladiator

We came, we saw, we loved (the film, that is.)

 

 

Chicken Run

Stuffed with good humour.
Egg-straordinary.
Egg-citing.
Cracking good fun. (Right, that's enough!) 

 

 

Wonder Boys

Michael Douglas shows some of the sparkle that snared the lovely Catherine Zeta-Jones.

 

 

Bedazzled

Liz Hurley's acting is as wooden as the furniture she sits on! Some Pledge is needed to give her performance a bit of extra polish.

 

 

Mission Impossible 2

Big stunts! Big bikes! Bad acting!

 

 

Snatch

Better acting than Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels. Vinnie was actually good in it. He was on screen longer than he was in most of the footie matches he played in!

 

 

Road Trip

OH MY GOD! Too good to put into words...
apart from ACE, FAB, BRILL!

 

 

X-Men

Hmmmmm, you need to be telepathic to comprehend what Bryan Singer was trying to achieve. It's just an introduction to the characters, not a film!
That aside, it's watchable.
