Transformers 4 is a terrible, terrible movie. It’s so magnificently terrible, that even I feel like I wasted R50 on a ticket to see a bloated special effects budget run havoc with Marky Mark and pals in tow. And I’m the kind of guy who has a treasured DVD copy of Tom Green’s underrated comedy classic Freddy Got Fingered on …
I’ve always enjoyed military action movies that are actually based on real life. Putting politics aside I’ve always respected the men and women who go out there and do things I most certainly couldn’t. From the harrowing Black Hawk Down to the more personal American Sniper there has always been plenty out there to satiate those who enjoy this genre. When …

Not too long ago we told you about how The Transformers movie franchise was assembling a writing team to oversee all future releases and spin-offs – all part of Paramount’s plan to create their own cinematic universe because everyone else is; and even that long-time franchise director and master of the baysplosion, Michael Bay, would be …
Love him or hate him Michael Bay is one of the biggest directors out that at the moment and I have to say I am glad for him. Yes, he has offered up some rather vapid movies, like most of the Transformers, but generally he is a tight director. He offers a huge BOOM for your buck, huge BAYsplosions, and …
Bad boys, bad boys! Whatcha gonna do? Whatcha gonna do when a different director comes for you?! That appears to be the paraphrased song that Sony is singing at the moment as The Wrap is reporting that The Grey helmer Joe Carnahan is engaged in talks to pen the screenplay for the long delayed third Bad Boys movie, with an …
