Liberal Arts, Sinister, The Knot


Liberal Arts 

Nostalgic drama / rom-com from Josh "How I Met Your Mother" Radnor. Gently paced, bittersweet and thought-provoking, though it offers no great revelations. Elizabeth Olsen shines, Zac Efron's campus drifter is amusing and Allison Janney's cynical maneating professor steals every scene she's in! Didn't like how it ended.

UK release date: 5th October 2012
Rating: 3/5



Sinister

A pretty decent chiller featuring Ethan Hawke, neat set-up, but didn't scare the pants off me unfortunately. Pants still fully intact. Only jumped a couple of times when there was a sudden loud noise, oldest trick in the book! I liked the score, I didn't like the very noticeable Apple product placement.

The Knot

Screenwriters Noel Clarke, Geoff Carino and Davie Fairbanks should hang their collective heads in shame. The Knot is a dire attempt at comedy. A series of unfunny sketches, pranks and toilet humour as we follow the bride and groom on their big day. Utter shit. Possibly the worst film of the year.
