A frustrating biopic of ‘Britain’s most dangerous prisoner’ that’s redeemed sightly by Hardy’s brilliant performance and a quality Eighties soundtrack.

Freight is notable mainly for the fact that it’s only the second ever film I’ve seen set in my unremarkable home town of Leeds. After getting over this shock I was just treated to clichés, a poorly thought out storyline and dialogue and a little bit of serviceable action.

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.

All the pieces are here to make a good movie, but The American lacks any real entertainment value.

Danny Trejo finally has a starring vehicle, and its a beautiful mess of blood, action, hot girls, and fun that never slows down long enough to lose its way.

Alfredson’s effort is too disjointed and just doesn’t give enough shared screentime to the charismatic leads to get even close to the awesome The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo. Shame.

Theres really nothing here to like, and for all its stars and all its ambition, its pretty much just dull.
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.
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.
A good detective thriller made great by an eye-opening ending. It’s just such a shame that, unless you’ve been living in North Korea or in Josef Fritzl’s basement for fifteen years, no-one will come to this movie untouched by the hype.
