A neat if not strikingly original thriller taken from the Robert Harris novel, finds leftfield historian Fluke Kelso on the trail of a story told to him by a now murdered Russian spy, which could reveal one of the greatest mysteries of the old Soviet Republic. Unfortunately Fluke's need to know is surpassed by the need of others to keep this particular secret, well.....secret, and as he homes in on a remote northern Port called Archangel it would seem the fallen angel has indeed come to collect find out more...

Boston police officer Thomas Craven's engineer daughter is gunned down on a visit home and, as he investigates, he is dragged into a web of corporate and government conspiracy.
We don't have a genre for poor Hollywood remakes of great foreign stuff - perhaps we should - and I strongly recommend that you watch instead the quality 1985 BBC mini-series of the same name from which this detective thriller is adapted. Nevertheless 'Edge of Darkness' the remake works efficiently enough. find out more...

A powerful thriller with an ingenious plot that leaves you piecing it together well after the end. Tom Farrell wins a plum job in the Pentagon only to find himself investigating a murder to which he was a witness and is a potential suspect. His mission becomes a quicksand of double bluffs, concealments, and attempts to sabotage the clues in order to avoid the Pentagon fingering him for the crime.

An investigative documentary by Shane O'Sullivan that examines the events of that fateful night in 1968 and presents compelling theories that suggest the killer, Sirhan Sirhan, was not working alone. The problem with O'Sullivan's case is that though the motives to kill Robert Kennedy were strong amongst the right-wing Cuban (anti-Castro) clique who'd infiltrated the CIA, and the gringo militaristic clique who ran them, the evidence presented is, though not unconvincing, circumstantial and would find out more...
