Fabriclive 50 – Dbridge & Instra:mental Review Fabriclive 50 – Dbridge & Instra:mental Review

It takes a brave man to stand down from the peak of his game to pursue a new direction and style. Braver still if his final goal is to have no style at all. In dBridge & Instra:mental we find three men who have done just that; taken a step back from their seats amongst the drum & bass heavyweights to pursue a new course, drawing influence... [Read more of this review]

Bond 23 – The Hype Addict Wish List – Part One Bond 23 – The Hype Addict Wish List – Part One

There’s no two ways about it, Casino Royale was bloody brilliant, but Quantum of Solace was a bit of a lame duck. What went wrong? Was it an action-naïve director? A rubbish villain? Silly plot? Probably all of the above; but never fear, all it not lost. It’d take a lot more than one dud film to kill the franchise, god knows the execrable Die... [Read more of this review]

Avatar review Avatar review

Avatar Review So the dust has finally settled on the PR hype juggernaut that is James Cameron’s Avatar. It’s made over $232m internationally over its opening weekend so it’s safe to say that Cameron’s folly looks likely to be a huge gamble that has paid off. Waterloo’s IMAX is sold out for Avatar until mid-January, so lucky for me that I... [Read more of this review]
