This week, Stephenie Meyer has unleashed The Host upon us, bringing with it a hoarde of aliens as terrifying as her Twilight vampires were menacing. As in NOT VERY, STEPHENIE MEYER! Nevertheless, her unprecedented alien invasion has thrown the office into a quandary – is there really ANYTHING worth seeing at the cinema tonight? Get ready to have your opinions forcefed to you, loyal readers…
Easter weekend is fast on the approach, bringing with it guilt-inducing hymns, anthropomorphic rabbits and thousands upon thousands of eggs. But, before we get TOO excited about that four day weekend, there’s still the little matter of tonight’s viewing to sort out…
Winner of an Academy Award, creator of ‘Nouveau Shamanic’ and star of some of your favorite flicks to hate, Nicolas Cage is a man that creates strong reactions. Nowhere is this more true than here at BFF. And so it came to be that upon the eve of his latest release, Stolen, Sarah and Megan were called on as tribute to battle it out for the honor of this enigmatic fellow. For all the blow-by-blow coverage, read on below…
It’s definitely an interesting week in cinemas. From Nicole Kidman peeing on Zac Efron in The Paperboy to Jim Carrey doing unspeakable things with a top hat in The Incredible Burt Wonderstone, it seems as if there’s something for everyone to enjoy – or, more probably, NOT to enjoy. So, to help you wade through all the films on offer, some of our very best Best For Film writers have laid out their (always correct) opinions…
Ah, Jim Carrey. It seems as if everyone who is anyone has an opinion on this funnyman of big budget flicks – whether you adore his early works and abhore Mr Popper’s Penguins, prefer him to stick to comedy and steer clear of serious dramas (hello Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind) or simply want to see him dress up in a funny costume, it’s hard not to have an opinion about good old Jim. So, with THAT in the forefront of our minds, Sarah and Nina have launched into an almighty row…
It’s a good week for films and a very BAD one for our general health. With the majority of Best For Film either bedridden, suffering extreme hallucinations, warding off a temperature or dead, it’s a wonder we found enough strength to dish out our imperative opinions on this week’s cinematic offerings…
Safe Haven is out, signalling the end of the cinematic world as we know it. But, thankfully, four brave new interns have joined the Best For Film battle against the dark regime of Nicholas Sparks. Is there a single film out there in this post-Sparkian civilisation worth seeing?
What better way to ease in a brand-new intern than by throwing them into a (metaphorical) ring with a longtime BFFer and forcing them into a (again, metaphorical) fight to the death, eh? Jeremy Renner is back in cinemas for Hansel & Gretel: Witch Hunters, forcing Megan and Kayleigh into a premature catfight about Renner’s capabilities as an actor…
The Oscars are finally over! At last, we can get back to the business of criticising films as they come out rather than spaffing on about ones that launched six months ago. Make the most of the 103rd OWLs, because the 104th, 105th and 106th will largely be given over to mercilessly destroying Safe Haven.
To The Wonder is out now, and among the cast of Terence Malick’s newest impenetrable drama is a certain Canadian with a great big forehead and a great big heart. But will Rachel McAdams’ role be an inspired return to form for 2004’s Hollywood It Girl or a sad little footnote to a fading career? We don’t know, obviously, so we’re just having an argument.
