Reviews Featuring Jason Flemyng
The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen
While 'The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen' is not terrible, its highly original and unusual premise deserves a much better treatment.
Mean Machine
Not a classic but, as Burt Reynolds remakes go, it could be much worse – we could have Vinnie in a new ‘Smokey and the Bandit’.
Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels
Complex, comical, and streets ahead of the rip-off merchants, this is one of the most influential Brit-flicks of the 90s.
Below
A totally unremarkable underwater creepfest.
Snatch
Lock, stock and no new ideas.
Anazapta
An enjoyable enough romp in the mediæval muck, with a head-scratching conclusion.
Seed of Chucky
Hope upon hope that this is the last Chucky movie we’ll ever have to endure. But, if there MUST be a sixth one, let’s pray that it’s called ‘Death of Chucky’ – and a painful death at that.
The Curious Case of Benjamin Button
It's a good film - not a great one - and while it deserves its many nominations, there's an audience disconnect that will keep it from winning anything but technical trophies.
Mirrors
Clunky in some scenes, decent in other, Mirrors is an unevenly scary flick that’s utterly predictable yet still kinda scary.
Solomon Kane
To be taken with a large pinch of salt, Solomon Kane is a generally enjoyable yet ultimately flawed fantasy adventure.
