"It is perhaps ironic that the oldest written form of the English language is the basis for a film that incorporates the very latest of modern technology. Beowulf, the Old English epic poem, hits the screens this week after a ten year production process.

Set in a mysterious era veiled by the mists of time, replete with heroes and monsters, adventure and valour, gold and glory, one exceptional man, Beowulf, emerges to save an ancient Danish kingdom from annihilation by a disfigured creature..."

   
   
   
   

 

 

"Earlier this year I was forced to make a difficult decision. The 20th of May saw the airing of the 400th episode of The Simpsons, a show that, up until 1998, had represented the zenith of TV comedy and had exercised as much a formative effect over me as my parents. With this landmark, one fact became painfully obvious: over half of The Simpsons is bad.

Everything about it was perfect; the iconic hero John McClane, the villain, the location and setting, the well-developed supporting characters, the action sequences and the plot.

Since then, an action genre has developed in which CGI sequences are not just commonplace but dominant and the Die Hard format is constantly replicated again and again..."

   
   
   
   

 

 

"Recently we lost one of the greatest visionaries of the cinema, Ingmar Bergman.  He was a landscape artist—his landscape being the human face—and a ruthless explorer of the human soul.  Bergman was singular, delving into the darkest regions of human being that no other filmmaker has ever managed to ford.  He used the camera like a surgeon uses a scalpel..."

 

   
   
   
   

   

"The third one, Die Hard with a Vengeance or, as I like to call it, Thank God Sam Jackson and Jeremy Irons are in the film, had a lot of cool components in it but, in my mind and in my heart, I always wanted to do another film to take one more shot at it and get as close to the first film as possible. So, we went through all three films and said “That’s good” and “That sucks, we can’t do that” and we narrowed it down...."
