Top 10 Films of 2013

So here it is, my top 10 films of the year. This is probably the year I saw the most films, as you’ll see below and I think I’ve got a pretty good range covered. The only rule for this list is that it had to have been released in UK cinemas in 2013. Whilst…

Top 10 Performances of 2013

Here’s the next of my 2013 lists, my top 10 performances of 2013. Like I said in the previous list, all the films here were released in the UK in 2013 and I am also carrying on my rule of only one performance per film (with the exception of number 6). With that out of…

Top 10 Scenes of 2013

CineKatz Not-So-Secret Santa Review Swap: Dredd Review

Very pleased to once again be taking part in the Cinematic Katzenjammer Not-So-Secret Santa Review Swap. When I took part in the one in July, I was given quite possibly one of the most pretentious films I’ve ever seen with Wrong. It seems fitting then that for this one, after the initial film I was…
