Bridge Of Spies (2015)

I have a confession to make, I believe I am the only film blogger in the world who did not run to the theatre to see Spectre. With the James Bond franchise being an ever present yet relatively underwhelming presence in my life, I decided I would instead get my fix of Winter spy cinema…

Black Mass (2015)

With four films I have been excited to see coming out in the space of a week or so, Oh! That Film Blog headquarters has been a hive of cinematic anticipation over the past few days. The first of these films is the Scott Cooper directed Black Mass, a picture I hoped would fill me with…
