After purchasing all six 'Rocky' films in a boxed set for 10 GBP I decided to chronicle the watching of the films. While I'm not one to try to list my top ten films, there is a chance 'Rocky' would be there. Its sequel is also one of the best sequels in cinema history. It then goes a bit strange, along with Stallone's career. We shall see. All six films. Across four decades.

The summer blockbuster season is so over, with ever increasing regularity, the big summer movies fail to deliver and instead we wait until Christmas for the big movies, ones that have us enthralled, or held in awe, and deliver on a complete spectacle.

Underworld is, without a doubt, a concept movie with a capitol 'C';. While the most venerable, and most filmed of monsters, have appeared in the same films in the past, it's never been all out war (not in a mainstream cinema release anyway).

The X-Men, and more specifically, the Spiderman movie may soon have a lot to answer for. Not because they are bad movies, X-Men is solid, entertaining and a good effort, Spiderman is just a very good movie period, but because of the deluge of Superhero movies that are now going to hit our cinemas.

If youre a fan of original series Star Trek, then Starship Exeter is a must-see. Starship Exeter is one of the best fan films Ive ever seen. Jimm and Josh Johnson, who wrote, produced, and directed the film, have expertly recreated the look and feel of Gene Roddenberrys original universe.

Every so often you watch a movie, for some nebulous reason, and it turns out to be something totally different to what you expected. While in Florida, a few years back, we went to the cinema to watch Bring It On. Why?

In the last couple of weeks I've seen one film three times. Now I don't do this often, one screening is usually enough for me (until I get a film on DVD anyway) but sometimes a film captures my imagination so much I can't help myself.

As expected, the on-line elite has condemned Tomb Raider: 'No Story', 'Plot Holes', 'Bad Acting' - all of the standard comments we have come to expect from the great and the good who sit in judgement on films.

Pulp is ready to make a huge comeback. The world didnt end eighteen months ago, and a decade or more of pre-millennial tension was released with a sigh of relief. Our new heroes are pulp heroes.
