About Me


A Bit About Myself

Hey! My name is Ben Russell. I'm 20 years old from sunny Queensland, Australia. I started reviewing movies at the beginning of 2012 because, well, they are the greatest thing in the world to me! I don't have a particular taste in film. Be it gangsters, romance, ghouls and fools, I love anything and everything to do with the world of cinema. I will be studying film and screen media production soon. This website is just a place to ramble and talk to fellow movie enthusiasts. Thanks for visiting!

  2. Would you like to review one of the Greatest films of all time? Here's the title: Vertigo (1958) by Alfred Hitchcock. I've seen it, and it's really a great film.
