Star Trek (2009)
The Movie: J.J. Abrams' reboot of the classic decades-spanning sci-fi saga is,⭕ for once, an actual reboot, as history is rewritten for Kirk and Co.
Why It Was Loved: By chucking out the baggage, Abrams gave a new audienꦐce a reason to engage with the Enterprise𝓀's serio-comic shenanigans... and even the Trekkies had grudging respect for the fact he left them their universe.
The Great Escape (1963)
The Movie: McQueen, Garner, Attenborough, Bronson, Coburnꦬ and every other Tom, Dick and Harry show the Nazis the dangers of p♐utting all their eggs in one basket.
Why It Was Loved: A perennial Bank Holiday treat, it's the kind of all-star smorgasbord you can watch wಞith your dad without either of you getting bored.
Typical Online Review: "What a magnificent piece of classic cinema! Everything from th🦩e acting to the music is just ♉pure artistic gold." Mike S,
has shown that The Hunger Games has fans in droves, demolishing even the biggest-ever Twilight movie’s box-office take.Why It Was Loved: The success of the books meant the films came pre-loaded with a rabid fanbase, but The Hunger Games finest trick was convincing the guys in the audience that this was worth a ticket (something that Twilight struggles to do). And don’t underestimate THG ’s secret weapon Jennifer Lawrence, who gives a performance that’s far richer than we’ve come to expect from teen-orientated blockbusters.
Typical Online Review: “Ther𒆙e are no words to describe the feeling that has inhabited my chest. I am not entirely sure I can process what was shown before my very eyes. Was it the horrific terror that chilled my spine and paralyzed me to my seat? Was it the breathtakingly beautiful romantics? I'm not entirely sure, but I know my cheeks are still sticky from the constant run of tears.” Sarah Ribeiro,
Terminator 2: Judgement Day (1991)
The Movie: Arnie returns as a good guy to save John Connor from the new threat of sarcastic shape-shi💮fter Robert Patrick.
Why It Was Loved: The first Terminator was aꦍ grungy tech-noir cult flick. The sequel was all-out BLOCKBUSTER, driven by the still-startling FX innovations of the T-1000.
Typical Online Review: "Absol𓂃ute classic. I've watched this film for years and it never gets old, boring or dull. I love it everytime. MUST SEE." Skitzomultiple,
