New Irish film Calvary looks like it is a must see. Centring in a small village on the Emerald isles ,it stars Brendan Gleeson as a benevolent priest who is threatened to be killed for the villager’s sins in seven days. As he tries to figure out who is the person threatening an attempt on his life, he unearths some deadly secrets in his town. This incredible drama cannot be more blessed than to have Brendan Gleeson playing the lead. The Irish Actor has been nominated and won a lot of awards from BAFTAs to Emmys in his roles. While many may know him from the Harry Potter series, this actor is not bereft of talent and here are just some (because, frankly, we want to say all) of the essential movies that you should catch.

By Paul Costello I don’t know if you’ve noticed or not, but superhero movies are kind of a big deal right about now. Barring spikes and dips here and there, superhero movies have been gathering major force in cinemas for about 15 years, culminating in their current stance as supreme record-setting box office behemoths. Yes, they are the force to be reckoned with now, but let’s look at a different time when that wasn’t so much the case. Back when dinosaurs roamed the land… 1993. In 1993, there was a film about a superhero, one without any kind of comic book basis whatsoever. Once a mild-mannered school teacher who wanted to help the community and the kids he taught but feared the confrontation that came with standing up for his self and others. One night, Jefferson Reed was struck by a meteor that changed him, gave him powers, and took away his fear. He became… The Meteor Man! |
