Review of Shaun of the Dead (2004)

By Essenceofsugar (75) on 23 Jul 2012

Review of The Five-Year Engagement (2012)

By Essenceofsugar (75) on 18 Jul 2012

It's a pity the humour got lost along the way, I mean, the film was funny to begin with, but the jokes just became so few and far between…

Review of Spider-Man (2002)

By Essenceofsugar (75) on 17 Jul 2012
