It’s official: The bumps’ gonna goose ya! Coming off the backs of surprising good reviews, the Jack Black-led live-action action adaptation of R.L. Stine’s classic Goosebumps books has opened strongly in the US, with the horror-for-kids adventure flick scaring away most of the competition as it debuted top of the charts with $23.5 million. The comedy adventure fell short of …

It would appear that Matt Damon’s constant need to be rescued in movies is the gift that keeps on giving. After debuting at the top spot on the US charts last weekend with a whopping $55 million opening, the Damon-led The Martian has retained pole position with only a 32% drop off in its second week. That remarkable staying power …

We review EVEREST (IMAX 3D) – A chilling, harrowing cliffhanger

By Kervyn Cloete
September 17, 2015
in :  Reviews

I’m an adventurous, outdoorsy guy, often in possession of more grit than grey matter, which is why during the sweeping opening 15 minutes or so of Everest, director Baltasar Kormakur’s retelling of the real life events surrounding a calamitous 1996 expedition to summit the titular mountain, I thought to myself that one day if I should have the financial independence, …

Nothing can prepare you for these first trailers and images for EVEREST

I’ve kind of got a soft spot for mountaineering films. Alive, Cliffhanger and Vertical Limit all hold spots in my DVD shelf, all part of a genre that is about as dangerous to touch as an ascent up the K2 mountains of the Himalayas.

Universal Pictures already has two such ascension flicks in development, while studio Working House is uh,er, working on one as well. And joining the race to climb up that really tall …
