Welcome to the Film Pie! Brisbane based film critic Matt Toomey has reviewed thousands of movies since 1996. See what's out now, or browse the review archive.

Centurion (out now) is set in 117AD and is about a group of Roman soldiers fighting the Picts in Northern Britain. It's a fairly "random" film. I didn't know which side I was supposed to be cheering for. The violence is also overdone. Yes, it may be realistic but what purpose does it serve showing us so many brutally graphic killings? Needed more story. Grade: C+.
