Review – Westworld, Season 1 Episode 1
“Hell is empty, and all the devils are here.”
The 1973 movie Westworld was written and directed by novelist Michael Crichton and showcased a Western themed amusement park where human visitors were able to interact with android inhabitants and live an Old West lifestyle without fear or consequence. It was a novel idea that nowadays is more famous for its similarities to Crichton’s most familiar work, Jurassic Park, but the idea of artificial intelligence gone rogue has stuck around cinema for decades and shaped science fiction into what it is today.

Review – Don’t Breathe (2016)
by Kevin Muller
“Don’t Breathe” asks you to take sides with criminals who decide to rob an Iraq Veteran who has been dealt a terrible bunch of cards in life: he is blind and lost his daughter in a car accident. Of course, the two of the three criminals are given character traits and back stories for you to feel that what they are doing is completely justified. This isn’t anything new in Hollywood, sometimes it is fun to side with the bad guys and see what living life in sin is like for a while. Usually though, characters ride the wave of pleasure until reality smacks them in the face. In this movie, reality does more than smack our main characters in the face, it beats them over the head with it and takes no prisoners.

Review – Sully (2016)
by Kevin Muller
“Sully” has to be one of the shortest movies that has its eye on the Oscar that I’ve seen in a long time. As with the incident, which only lasted 208 seconds, the movie is short and is piloted by an expert. While Sully successfully landed the plane in the Hudson, Clint Eastwood guides this story quickly and to the point.
Review – Don’t Breathe (2016)
Many people gawked at the remake to The Evil Dead, Sam Raimi’s influential no-budget horror classic seemed too lightening-in-a-bottle to work as a remake. But in the hands of first-time filmmaker Fede Alvarez, 2013’s Evil Dead proved itself a worthy reboot. However there were some who criticise the film for its shock and gore so in response, Alvarez follow-on was to be an original piece, focusing more on the tension than the gore and terrify the audience rather than sicken them.
Don’t Breathe is that response.
