This prequel is much better than the awful title suggests as it exudes an enjoyably throwaway quality. A good way to spend the inevitably rainy summer days.
One of the best thrillers and finest Dustin Hoffman films out there. But… is it safe?
This fairly uninteresting and unoriginal superhero is saved somewhat by a few decent characters and acting turns.
This is not for everyone but is a masterful retelling of a classic novel that offers a new take without abandoning the tone and themes of the book.
The Third Man is a classic film noir with iconic lines, scenes and settings galore, and a storyline that will keep you guessing til the end.
One of the finest Westerns you will ever see, Once Upon a Time in the West offers up great characterisation, masterful storytelling and atmospheric cinematography and score.
Post Mortem uses a morgue worker, a cabaret dancer and a violent coup d’etat to prove that love and heroism is far from dead. A well-written, interesting, funny and disturbing film.
A First Class First-Person apocalypse film that nicely mixes things up and credits its audience with a bit of intelligence.
A fitting end to the hugely popular series sees Harry Potter re-find the magic it had recently lost in previous instalments. Unfortunately though, this landmark leaves most of the British film industry unemployed.
Super stylish and refreshingly different, Joe Wright and the young Saoirse Ronan elevate this thriller above a mere gimmick.
