Russell Crowe was cast perfectly in this role. He grew up in Australia, a country well known for its baron landscape and he’s a fan of gambling, having once being a bingo caller. In fact, such is his love we’d be surprised if he wasn’t enjoying the vast number of bingo sites like Moon Bingo available in between sets. Joining him in the 3:10 to Yuma...

It’s an all star cast that also includes Matt Damon, Josh Br...

Completely different to the above, Meek’s Cutoff is a more contemplative movie which falls more on thought than action. Words speak louder in this film and it’s a beautifully directed film from Kelly Reichardt. Based loosely upon an incident that occured on the Oregon Trail in 1845, where Stephen Meek took a wagon on an ill-fated journey through th...

Little does Jay know that his love,...
