Good Film Vault: Fight Club (1999)


By Adam Bramwell


Yesterday I had a random urge to watch Fight Club, a film I have seen once already. The film tells the story of an unnamed insomniac (Edward Norton), who narrates the film. Having been told by the doctor he needs natural sleep instead of medication, he goes on to attend a testicular cancer support group, where he becomes addicted to the feeling of letting go and releasing emotion, so finds himself attending more, as it helps relieve his insomnia.

Recent Releases: Law Abiding Citizen (2009)


By Adam Bramwell

***SPOILER ALERT***

Law Abiding Citizen is a crime thriller film starring Jamie Foxx and Gerard Butler. I already knew the background of the movie having watched trailers and thought that it looked extremely promising. The film jumps straight into a scene of Clyde Shelton (Butler) witnessing his wife and daughter murdered in his own home. After finding out from the case prosecutor (Foxx), that one of the criminals will receive a light charge, and witnessing them shake hands in what he thinks is some sort of deal, Clyde feels betrayed and is out for revenge.

Latest Releases: Everybody's Fine


















By Andy Pountain

When i first watched the trailer for this film i thought it would be a typical winter comedy, upon watching the film this evening i was suprised as too how the trailer portrayed it as opposed to actually watching all of it. 'Everybody's Fine' is simply a heartwarming look at the reality of parenting, it may not apeal to younger viewers as it is a bit slow in places but as a whole it left me feeling greatful for what i have in life and also left me with many thoughts.
