There is so much culture in Edinburgh at the moment but you will be forgiven for escaping to the cinema this Sunday if you go to see either of these wonderful films on offer.
First at The Filmhouse they are showing The Secret in Their Eyes (El Secretor de Sus Ojos)  (18) at 13.15 17.45 and [...]

Cinema on Saturday

We always rather forget about The Odeon on Lothian Road as a cinema to visit, but had cause to go recently and it was rather nice!
So this Saturday you could go to The Odeon to escape the crowds in the city, the rain or anything else you are running away from.
3D Step Up 3 (12A) [...]

The Cameo this Saturday

A real treat this week – yet again a film that you have to go and see! The film is Gainsbourg and it is showing at the Cameo on Lothian Road at 13.00, 15.30, 18.10 and 20.50. The film is a wee peek at the life of the French singer from his childhood in wartorn [...]

Cineworld on Saturday

We have decided to concentrate on the Fountainpark cinema this weekend. The beauty of it is that you can drive there, get the bus or indeed it is an easyish 15 minute walk.  There are advance showings of two films this weekend:- The Karate Kid (PG) starring Will Smith’s young son Jaden, an up and [...]

Gravity

Gravity is the tale of a German banker (Fabian Hinricks) facially similar to Jimmy Carr, who is deeply dissatisfied with his lot. He is still in love with an ex from seven years ago, he has no real friends, and his job is so crap that when a client shoots himself right in front of [...]

The Good Heart

That said, it’s not designed to be a pant-wetting, nail-biting thriller. This is more of a character study, where the focus lies not on the plot or its sense of inevitability, but in seeing how the actors reach their final destination. And it’s an engrossing journey.
The screening was briefly introduced by one of its stars, [...]

Huge

As a fan of the Armstrong and Miller shows, I was interested to see Ben Miller’s first film, Huge, which is about a pair of comedians trying to make it. If nothing else the director/co-writer has the research under his belt.
Unfortunately, the film is a little bit flat. The main problem is that there is [...]
