Spider-Man at the Movies – ‘The Amazing Spider-Man 2’

Hello everyone! 🙂

Welcome to ‘Bradley’s Basement’ blog and I’m Tim Bradley!

We come to the second and final (for now 😀 ) ‘Spider-Man’ film featuring Andrew Garfield as the webslinger – ‘The Amazing Spider-Man 2’. Over the years, I’ve grown to like this film more and more. I know it’s the weakest of the two ‘Spider-Man’ films in the Andrew Garfield era so far, but like ‘Spider-Man 3’, I find there’s more good than bad in it. Continue reading

Movie Review – ‘Catch that Kid’/’Mission Without Permission’

Hello everyone! 🙂

Welcome to ‘Bradley’s Basement’ blog and I’m Tim Bradley!

Last Friday, I saw the movie ‘Catch that Kid’ on Disney+. Apparently, it’s a remake of the Danish film called ‘Klatretøsen’. Not that I would know that fact beforehand when watching this film, though I have seen the film on display at DVD stores and it has taken me a while to check this certain film out. Continue reading

Quick Movie Review – ‘Thor: Love and Thunder’

SPOILERS ALERT!!!

Hello everyone! 🙂

Welcome to ‘Bradley’s Basement’ blog and I’m Tim Bradley!

Well, I’ve seen the fourth ‘Thor’ film in the ‘Marvel Cinematic Universe’‘Thor: Lovely and Thunderous’ ( 😀 ), starring Chris Hemsworth and Natalie Portman. In fact, I’ve seen this film twice at the cinema. I think this is a ‘Thor’ film that needs to be seen twice at the cinema to appreciate the story and characters. Continue reading

‘The Railway Children’ Movies

Hello everyone! 🙂

Welcome to ‘Bradley’s Basement’ blog and I’m Tim Bradley!

Let’s talk about ‘The Railway Children’! I first became aware of E. Nesbit’s children’s story through the 2000 TV film, featuring Jenny Agutter as the mother and Jemima Rooper as Bobbie. Lately, I’ve checked out ‘The Railway Children’ films – the 1970 film and the 2022 sequel, both made for cinema. Continue reading

Spider-Man at the Movies – ‘The Amazing Spider-Man’

Hello everyone! 🙂

Welcome to ‘Bradley’s Basement’ blog and I’m Tim Bradley!

I’m pleased that there are five ‘Spider-Man’ movies currently available on Disney+, including ‘Spider-Man’, ‘Spider-Man 2’, ‘The Amazing Spider-Man’, ‘The Amazing Spider-Man 2’ and ‘Spider-Man: Homecoming’.

Movie Review – ‘Alice in Wonderland’ (1951)

Hello everyone! 🙂

Welcome to ‘Bradley’s Basement’ blog and I’m Tim Bradley!

When it comes to talking about Lewis Carroll and the worlds he created for ‘Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland’ and ‘Alice Through The Looking Glass’, the current adaptation that springs to mind for me nowadays is the one that stars Sarah Sutton as Alice in the BBC’s 1973 ‘Alice Through The Looking Glass’. 🙂 Continue reading

Spider-Man at the Movies – ‘Spider-Man 3’

Hello everyone! 🙂

Welcome to ‘Bradley’s Basement’ blog and I’m Tim Bradley!

‘Spider-Man 3’ is not available on Disney+ yet, but that shouldn’t stop us from revisiting the third movie of the original ‘Spider-Man’ film trilogy by Sam Raimi, starring Tobey Maguire as Peter Parker/Spider-Man. I’ve updated my review on the movie with some extra paragraphs on the characters as well as adding some new photos of the movie. Continue reading

Movie Review – ‘Nightmare Alley’ (2021)

Hello everyone! 🙂

Welcome to ‘Bradley’s Basement’ blog and I’m Tim Bradley!

(groans) ‘Nightmare Alley’. Here we go. I want to stress; I know this film has received a lot of positive reception in terms of critical acclaim. In fact, the film received four nominations at the recent Academy Awards, including Best Picture, though ‘CODA’ actually won the award – good for that film. Continue reading
