This month, audiences across the world finally got a new instalment of arguably one of the greatest film series in history. And boy was it worth the wait. Can you believe A New Hope was released in 1977!? I mean, the originals were sadly before my time, but it didn't stop my dad raising me with a very firm knowledge of Luke, Leia...

Hold onto your capes...Marvel is pulling out all the stops for 2016's Captain America: Civil War. We all know it'll divide the superhero fort between Team Cap and Team Iron Man so that's not too much of a spoiler. But seeing as the last CA film, The Winter Soldier, remains one of my favourite Marvel movies to date, I think the twists and...

I'll admit I first heard about Jessica Jones, the new Netflix Original and Marvel TV show, through David Tennant. He was cast as some sort of Purple Man in a show that's almost anti-superhero in a world full of superheroes...I mean, seriously, they're all over the place nowadays. Anyway, besides that I hadn't really heard much more about the series. After the first...

On my very brief return to the UK, I insisted on several things: 1) Eat a full English breakfast, 2) Eat a bar of Cadbury's, and 3) Watch SPECTRE. And so, having ticked off the first two and previously missed out on press screenings whilst travelling, I ferried myself to the cinema at 10am. It was worth it. After the game-changing Skyfall, which...

If your life was a movie, Love at first sight would probably exist. Or, date at first sight at least. (Your eyes lock across a crowded room, slow string music plays and he's over in a jiffy to get your number.) You can like whoever you like, because odds are, they like you back. (Even when he's a 100 year old apparently-super-hot cold...

Marty McFly is in town today! In the second Back to the Future, Marty and co. took a trip to 2015 - and made a few futuristic predictions along the way. This momentous day has been 30 years in the making and it's here. Some keen beans have even been counting down the days for quite some time. We may not be in...

It's beginning to feel like winter, and this week's Red Carpet Review has definitely brought the seasonal glamour. Pals Vanessa Hudgens and Ashley Tisdale channelled the vamp-glam look just days away from Halloween at a Guitar Hero Live event. And new star Rose Leslie of The Last Witch Hunter (starring Vin Diesel) impressed with a gorgeous nude-and-sequin panelled gown at the premiere -...

Former Bond, Sir Roger Moore, wants Hugh Jackman or Damian Lewis. Lots of people in the world want Idris Elba.  Including Pierce Brosnan. Oh, and Naomie Harris just said that current Bond Daniel Craig might not even be leaving, so this whole speculation may just be a waste of time. (But then again he also said he would rather slash his wrists than...

The final Hunger Games movie will be out in cinemas, just over a month away! From avidly reading the books as a teenager (with the classic torch under the bedcovers move) and scoring a pass to the first premiere, it's safe to say this franchise has gone as far as to even shaping this blog from the early days. Do you remember one...

Fashion Week is officially over - for now! I had the pleasure of hitting the streets and shows of Milan. Street style is a BIG thing here, and for one week, people have their most eccentric, impressive, gear out on display. Photographers are out in force, and the world is watching to see what your wardrobe can offer. So the big dilemma for...

It's more than official: our favourite diary-writing Bridget Jones is back for a third instalment. Production has started, and Renee Zellweger and Colin Firth will be joined by McDreamy Patrick Dempsey, and a baby, apparently. (For audiences of Helen Fielding's original books, fear not: this will not be an adaptation of the ridiculous Mad About the Boy.) Bridget was one of the most refreshingly...

James Bond is ready. Are you? In the final trailer before Spectre is released later this month, there's a lot of fighting and punching.  And Daniel Craig looking effortlessly suave as Bond, obviously. Can't wait for this film to be released! ...

I had the pleasure of attending the Bally Spring/Summer 2016 Collection at Milan Fashion Week. From stepping into the entrance courtyard, I could instantly tell it was going to be a special presentation. Bally was founded in Switzerland in 1851, and the historic grand setting was fitting. Coloured suede was everywhere, especially in dusty pink, cream and brown.  Handmade artisan detail was shown...

I went to Milan Fashion Week! I received a very shiny invitation with my name and 'beview.co.uk' written on it and got very excited indeed. It's been a few years since I went to my first catwalk in London, and last week I achieved a dream of witnessing the Italian runway. German label AIGNER brought the 'under the sea' vibes to Milan with...
