Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow

Great visuals… shame about the story.

Killing Zoe

A bloody mess, in more ways than one.

Alfie

A reasonable movie, but one that’s steeped in irrelevance.

Gypsy Woman

If you like your soft-hearted comedy served with a neckerchief and some lucky white heather, you’ll love ‘Gypsy Woman’.

Bride and Prejudice

A lively attempt at adapting Bollywood for the masses – all you need is a set of ear-plugs and you’re good to go.

Five Children and It

A spiritless and forgettable adaptation that could have been so much better.

Wimbledon

Only the stars bounce in this dull-as-Henman Wimblebore.

Wicker Park

Expertly-directed but sadly mis-cast, this engaging romantic thriller brings us less a love triangle than a love dodecahedron – so make sure you’re paying attention if you don’t want to end up lost!

Welcome to Mooseport

Not so much a political satire as a political parable, ‘Mooseport’ is a nice place to visit, but you wouldn’t want to live there. In other words – rent it, don’t buy it.

Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory

Choco-rific family fun that does Roald Dahl’s creation proud – even though he never admitted it.
