This British druglord biopic gives Howard Marks the complete luvvy-duvvy treatment and offers absolutely nothing new but Mr. Nice has an interesting enough story to entertain throughout.
British
Made in Dagenham
A history lesson in a format your Mum might like, Made in Dagenham isn’t to everyone’s taste but it is largely watchable.
Inception
Like an attractive newsreader, Inception is intelligent, pretty and makes you think, which is a novelty nowadays in the world of the blockbuster. An extremely well-executed heist movie with a twist and another success for Christopher Nolan.
Wild Target
As quintessentially British as tea and scones, binge drinking, and teenage pregnancy. This comedy thriller is pretty lightweight but packed full of subtle irony and sarcastic humour.
Black Death
Okay but not great, Black Death is deftly moody and unsentimentally brutal in parts but never really hits its stride when it should.
Robin Hood
Definitely more stand-alone historical epic than Robin Hood instalment this is original and exciting nonetheless. A success despite Russell Crowe’s Anglo-Irish Robin Hood.
