As you should know by now, Bill Paxton (RIP) is our actor of the month in the newly-revived Acting School 101 feature, being hosted by MovieRob. Alongside the monthly blogathon held here on the LAMB site, Rob will also be hosting a monthly podcast episode devoted to the actor and their roles, and wouldn’t you know it but that’s this very show here!
Rob was joined by Heather Baxendale from the MILFcast to discuss all...
A human mind in a robot body or an adult mind in a baby’s body, which is better? You decide! I haven’t seen either of these films and, judging by the general feedback I probably never will (unless either wins a future Movie of the Month poll), so apologies if those over-simplified descriptions aren’t terribly accurate. You know who has seen these films and can tell you more about them? The LAMB members who wrote the...
Where the heck did Life come from? I swear there are movies that just kind of creep up on you, until the day they get released and suddenly they’re on every bus-side and billboard, and for me that was Life, and apparently it’s actually pretty good. On the other hand, Saban’s Power Rangers was over-marketed to the point of parody, and looked awful, but some people seemed to like it. Here’s what the...
The latest Movie of the Month franchise special – which joins the ranks with the Back to the Future trilogy, the Godfather trilogy and the Airport franchise – is the Dirty Harry series, five movies following the busiest and seemingly most chaos-attracting detective in San Francisco.
Jay Cluitt was joined by Todd Liebenow, Jacob Lusk, Howard Casner and Dirty Harry superfan...

Hello everyone, just a reminder that I’m still looking for pieces you’ve made about the films of Ken Loach. For a reminder of the films you can cover, and a brief overview of the history of Loach’s films, go back to my original post here. I look forward to reading what you’ve written on Loach’s...

More remakes and sequels this week, as we take a look at a long-anticipated and warmly-received sequel, and in my opinion a less-anticipated, highly unnecessary and frankly lacklustre big budget remake. Here’s what the LAMB community has to say about T2: Trainspotting and Beauty and the Beast:
T2: Trainspotting

Welcome Back Students!
Rob from MovieRob here!
I am pleased and excited to announce that I will now be running the return of a feature on the LAMB that has been on hiatus for the past 3 and a half years.
Like The Director’s Chair series being run by Tony, I think that this is a great way to get a look at what the members of the Lamb community think about the work of some of the most prolific actors/actresses who...
The blockbusters are going to start coming thick and fast as the summer approach begins! This week’s sees the largest Kong yet, taking on an Apocalypse, Now-style army platoon out for his blood, but is it any good? I liked it a great deal, but who cares about what I think, when there’s a whole community of LAMBs to be consulted instead:
Kong: Skull Island

The latest Movie of the Month has been decided upon!
It’s franchise time for the latest Movie of the Month. Five very different movie series were put forward, but of course there can be only one winner, and so for the month of April we’re going to be talking about… the Dirty Harry franchise!…

Superhero movies, we get a bunch of ’em every year, and so far 2017’s releases have been enjoyably different from the standard origin stories or more-of-the-same-but-more sequels. The Lego Batman Movie was immensely fun and refused to take itself (or anything, really) seriously for a second (in my opinion it should be topping the Lambscores board by a considerable margin) and now we have James Mangold’s closing of...

Hello everyone, it’s once again time to announce the director that will be highlighted for Director’s Chair. This month, after going for a more fantasy themed director last time, I thought I’d go for more gritty realism, and in tackling this element of the film industry, I could think of no director that...
