2010 Films of Year
This top 10 list is in no particular order, I love each of these films equally and for many different reasons and if you haven’t seen them then you should do as soon as possible, I’ve tried to sum up why in only a sentence or two.  One small caveat to mention is that I don’t pirate films so all of these films have been seen in the cinema during their UK theatrical run in 2010 so...

2010 Game of the Year: Mass Effect 2
I was going to o a long list of every game I thought was awesome in 2010 but then I realised I could quite happily settle on one.  It’s not going to every year that a game that gets released in January (Jan 26th to be precise) and it’s going to resonate with you until the end of that year but that’s precisely what Mass Effect 2 managed to do.

No. 4 Madrid  I traveled further and more regularly this year than I have any other year (another reason why 2010 has been awesome) and finally seeing Madrid was definitely a highlight.   Madrid is the only city in Europe I’ve personally been too (and there’s lots...

Rambling thoughts – The Tourist
*Editors note, hopefully in the new year I’ll start writing up short reviews of what I’m watching, in fact I may even start up another Tumblr to do it and see if anybody else wants to get involved.   Directed by Florian Henckel von Donnersmarck (The Lives of Others) and based off of the 2005 French film Anthony Zimmer, The Tourist follows Frank (Depp) an American maths teacher who...
