Film Reviews

Here you can read my thoughts about some of the films that have captivated and inspired me. From timeless classics to hidden gems, each review explores different worlds through cinema.

Inglorious Basterds

Inglorious Basterds

One of Quentin Tarantino’s finest works, ‘Inglorious Basterds’ follows a Jewish-American militia group, The Basterds, sent deep behind German/enemy lines in France, the group are tasked by the British government with assisting in an attack on a small Paris cinema which promises to take out most of the Nazi high command, but things change when word reaches the allies that the Fuhrer himself plans to attend the premier.

Jurassic Park

Jurassic Park

The plot of ‘Jurassic Park’ is simple, millionaire and business-man John Hammond (Richard Attenborough) opens a theme park full of real-life dinosaurs, he invites Dr. Allan Grant (Sam Neil), Dr. Ellie Sattler (Laura Dern), and Dr. Ian Malcom (Jeff Goldblum) to inspect the park and see the unique “attractions”. A tropical storm hits the island (this was a real storm that hit the location during filming) and cuts out all of the electrics on the island. The loss of power wipes out the security systems, allowing the dinosaurs to escape all over the island. Allan Grant has to help Lex and Tim Murphey (John Hammond’s grandchildren) get back to the Visitors centre and escape the island before it’s too late.
