Let’s call a spade a spade, or to be more accurate, call Robert De Niro a talented actor who has apparently contracted an extremely virulent case of Cant-turn-down-scrip-itis. The Oscar winner has had a run of poor movie choices over the last couple of years, and while I’m definitely not saying that his latest pick, Luc Besson’s The Family (or is it’s …

Traditonally animated films are a rare sight these days, with the majority of such flicks being produced in the now more popular CGI technique. But seeing a 2D film with high production standards?

The latest season of Formula One has been particularly gripping this year, especially for those drivers who weren’t using Pirelli tyres. But it’s the kind of sport that has some legendary history, of epic races and rivalries that took place on the tracks. Rush chronicles one such battle between drivers.
