Ricky Gervais has had a meteoric rise to stardom. I first came across him on the 11 O’Clock Show ten years ago. While his slot on there was supposed to be crude and shocking, I thought behind all that he had the potential to be a great comedian.

When news of writer/director Guy Ritchie’s new gangster project, RocknRolla, surfaced, I have to say I was hopeful, yet not optimistic. Whilst I was a massive fan of his first two (Lock, Stock and Snatch) the third (Revolver) was an utter car wreck.

Even if you only have a passing interest in football the chances are that you would have heard of Brian Clough.

Kirk Siddals  //  11/08/2009 12:47:57

Paul Blart: Mall Cop brings Kevin James to the silver screen in a leading role for the first time. Sure he shared the credits with Adam Sandler in I Now Pronounce You Chuck & Larry, but this is his first time out there on his own. Not satisfied with the leading male role, he’s also gone for producer and writer as well!
