A Hammer horror classic. Its not likely to leave anyone shrieking with fear these days, but what it does offer is some great entertainment – in a funny sort of way.
British
Young Adam
A well-made and well-acted film with a distinct indie feel to it. Just a pity David Mackenzie couldnt find a better tale to give his big screen adaptation treatment to.
Calendar Girls
A nicely-acted Brit-com, but unfortunately its also unavoidably dull.
The Long Good Friday
Engrossing and influential, this laid the groundwork for every British gangster-flick that followed. Where would Guy Ritchie be without stuff like this?
The Italian Job
Mildly entertaining tripe.
Blackball
A film carefully calculated to please an English audience, with its combination of patriotism, sport, cheek and absurdity. Not just a good laugh, but also a snapshot of our times.
