I'm just your regular cinephile and movie geek. I grew up with Star Wars, Indiana Jones, Superman and a lot of 1980's cheese, falling in love with movies in 1994 when my tastes ma*ured and I began watching more independent works and world cinema, as well as the clas*ics. I judge films on a vast criteria, balancing artistic merit with entertainment value, as well as the quality of the performances, writing, cinematography and various other production values.

Try not to take it personally if I haven't named your favourites amongst the best of the year, this is my personal opinion. Likewise with what I consider the worst of the year, some of them may be guilty pleasures, but it's only what I've considered to be the worst film of the year. Some of which are etched into cinema infamy as the best of the worst. of anybody else, any film review with similarities to another, either online or in print, is purely coincidental. Occasionally, the viewing of a film has made me angry, so I have vented frustration by using the occasional obscenity in some reviews. I apologise for any offence caused.  Obviously, the enjoyment of any film is subjective, so if I'm unfair on your favourite movie(s), it's really nothing personal. One man's Star Wars is another man's Battlefield Earth (and vice versa). I do try my best to explain why I like or loathe each film and try not to let prejudices towards a certain star or director sway my decision (which is easier said than done). Although all the reviews
