Aaron & Ahmed: review by Gavin O'Reilly Jihadist camps in Pakistan? Guantamo bay? Ground Zero in New York? Meme theory? Drugs and possibly a gay tinged relationship (but were not sure as it may be a drugged hallucination)? Surely this isn’t suitable subject matter for comic book? I am happy to say it is. |

The Jimi Hendrix Experience
Biography book review by Les Davis When I was first asked to review 'The Jimi Hendrix Experience', I was beyond excited! I’ve been a Hendrix fan since I first lost my mind to 'Purple Haze' at a youth disco in the 80s, and since then, I have been captivated by the man and the music.

Another Earth Review by Bill Harrington How would you react to the sight of an alternative earth and moon appearing, without warning, in the sky? I'm certain I would react far more hysterically than the main characters of Another Earth, a Sundance Film Festival award winner in which this occurrence of inconceivable enormity serves as a catalyst for them to reflect on the direction of their lives... |

Bob Dylan: Alias Anything You Please
Review by Cato Barend van Schalwyk ‘‘Bob Dylan: Alias Anything You Please’ is a book of photographs. It’s not a biography, and it is emphatically not a critique of Dylan’s songs, lyrics and music. However the text and captions of this book do attempt to perform a kind of critique of Dylan as a subject of the photographer’s camera.’

The Tapes Review by Bill Harrington The Last Broadcast and The Blair Witch Project cast long shadows over this British “found footage” film from writer/ director Scott Bates and director Lee Alliston. Neither as ambitious as the former or well-crafted as the latter, it nonetheless does well within its tight budget to hold some interest, even for the audience that's seen it all before..... |

Snowtown Snowtown arrives surrounded by quiet controversy. Rumours of walk-outs at screenings and at least one reviewer likening it to a snuff film may lead an audience to prepare for an exploitative piece. Such comment does the film a disservice. The film's notoriety seems unjustified considering its generally admirable lack of gratuitousness in relating its extremely grim source material |

The Awakening Us Brits love a period drama, the decadence of a society with all its manners, values and a fresh pot of tea with scones has become a national draw. The traditional ghost story is a cherished part of our past and with a 1921 post war setting, horror thriller The Awakening is a welcome change from the loud gore and high concept brutal torture flicks of recent times... |
