High Stakes - The Sam Trickett Story

Sam Trickett is the biggest UK poker tournament winner of all time. He is also in the top 3 in the world all time winners according to the hendonmob website.

He was working his way to becoming a professional footballer when an injury put paid to that. After that he found poker.

His most notable career highlight was taking second place at the WSOP Big One for One Drop scooping a whopping $10.1m.

I just watched an interesting documentary about his life story.



Here is the 4-part film:

Movie Review: Sinister (2012)

We went down to Vue on Monday night to catch new horror flick Sinister which was released on Friday.

The cost to view a film at the cinema in London is rip off so I tend to wait more for dvd releases but this one looked too good to wait for.

Its by the same producer of Paranormal Activity which I thought was pretty good.

The film is about a true crime writer (Ellison Oswalt) who visits or lives by crime scenes of unsolved murders. In his latest case he actually moves into the house where a family were killed but keeps that fact secret from the rest of his own family.

The murdered family consisted of 5 people: dad, mum, 2 girls and a boy.... however only 4 were killed and one of the girls is missing.

Oswalt (played by Ethan Hawke) discovers a box in the loft which holds video footage of the murder along with footage of other murders. In each case a family is killed but one of the kids goes missing leading to a belief that the murderer is kidnapping one child each time.

Hawke discovers a link to a pagan deity called Bagul and delves deeper into the matter until strange things start happening in the house. There is a nasty twist at the end and I won't spoil it by revealing.

All in all a very good movie which was a change from the last film I watched at the cinema, The Devil Inside which was a big disappointment.

Verdict: 7.5/10

Movie Review: The Inbetweeners Movie

If you liked the series then you will most likely love the film.

I discovered the tv show quite late on as they were beginning the 3rd series. I quickly caught up with the previous 2 batches and immediately became a fan.

On Thursday I went to catch the film and wasn't disappointed. You pretty much know what to expect.... more of the usual non sense and buffoonary which is all good fun.

Schools out and the guys are all going to be moving on with their new lives. Before that there is time for a lads holiday in Malia, Crete.

Simon is dumped by his girlfriend and agrees that a holiday will cheer him up. They end up in an absolute dump of a hotel and soon hit the streets. The guys get lured into a 'banging' club which turns out to be empty but its too late as they have paid their entry fee. They meet a group of ladies and make their moves...

The film builds up to a big boat party where Simon will attempt to win back his ex, who incidently is also on holiday in the same place. Between Arrival and the Boat Party they go through many ups n downs...

If you're not sure then let me assure you it's a good watch

Verdict: 7.3/10

 

They are all great characters but I think Will is my favourite

Zeitgeist: The Movie (2007)

This week I watched an interesting documentary, Zeitgeist: The Movie.

Peter Joseph is the American writer, director and producer of the Zeitgeist Trilogy of Movies. There is also a 4th movie in the pipeline.

This thought provoking film is split into 3 parts:

Part 1 questions the origins of the Christian Religion and whether it was developed through other Pagan Religions. He also talks about the Jesus myth hypothesis.

Part 2 is about conspiracy theories relating to the events of 9/11 and whether they were actually carried out by the US government in order to gain public support for the so called 'war on terror'.

Part 3, titled 'Don't mind the men behind the iron curtain' questions whether war is deliberately orchestrated for financial gain. Joseph says that the powers behind the Federal Reserve want wars to occur so that the US government has to borrow money to fund these wars and thereby the bankers become wealthier.

This movie is well worth watching if you're into conspiracy theories. Whether you believe the ideas or not it will definitely get you thinking.

I have just watched the 2nd movie called Addendum which is also very interesting and based around the ideology of a resource based world vs a monetary society and how technology would be far more advanced today if we had no money in the world and if everyone just worked towards their full potential in life.

Verdict: 7/10
