Godsend

July 11, 2004 – 12:00 am

One of the creepiest movies of the year, even if it’s not one of the most plausible.

Croupier

July 11, 2004 – 12:00 am

‘Casino’ minus the glamour – and the American accents. Worth seeing.

Highwaymen

July 11, 2004 – 12:00 am

A tale of motorway madness that wheely doesn’t work (a bit like that last pun, come to think of it).

Brokedown Palace

July 11, 2004 – 12:00 am

Enough to put you off Thailand for life!! And drug-smuggling, for that matter.

Fight Club

July 11, 2004 – 12:00 am

It’ll take a few viewings to get a real grip of what’s going on – but don’t beat yourself up over it. ‘Fight Club’ is definitely worth it.

Proof, if ever it was required, that the Ol’ West did indeed stretch on… and on… and on… and on…

The Notebook

July 8, 2004 – 12:00 am

Goes straight past the heart-strings and hits you square on the upchuck reflex. It’s a sweet tale, but just far too sickly.

Around the World in 80 Days

July 8, 2004 – 12:00 am

Silly but fun – take the whole family along.

White Chicks

June 11, 2004 – 12:00 am

Stand them up – and not just because they’re really men (although that’s a fairly good reason in itself).

Fat Slags

June 11, 2004 – 12:00 am

This could very well be the worst film ever made.
