There is a new criminal mastermind at large—Professor Moriarty—and not only...

A new trailer is out for Guy Ritchie’s Sherlock Holmes 2: A Game of Shadows. It is very sumptuous and action packed. As I enjoyed the first film I am looking forward to the sequel. We get to see Jared Harris as Moriarty and Noomi Rapace talking in the new trailer plus some slow motion scenes involving a chase through the woods and some high calibre...

Do you remember Mel Gibson? He made some movies you may have seen – Lethal Weapon, Braveheart, Mad Max, Maverick and many more. He has also directed a few movies and also had a few drinks, made some racist slurs, allegedly threatened his girlfriend, destroyed his marriage and put made a mess of his career. His come back in The Beaver did not work very...
