Fine London-based drama-thriller that features an outstanding minority cast and illuminates the seedier side of the lives of immigrants.
British
Local Hero
Bill Forsyth's finest work of all, this is a perfect film. It might even give you an urge for a wee dram of whisky.
Lara Croft: Tomb Raider
Potty-level action flick. Call me old fashioned, but I'm sticking to Indiana Jones.
Queen's Messenger
Low budget actioner with little to recommend it. Fans of Gary Daniels will enjoy seeing him fight, of course.
Trainspotting
Gritty and raw but appealing and even entertaining examination of wasted lives and drug addiction. Not to be missed.
Bhaji on the Beach
Enjoyable entry into the strong ranks of British-made Asian comedy dramas that will entertain far beyond the Asian community.
