Little Nicky

Harvery Keitel, Reese Wetherspoon and Rhys Ifans why, oh why, did you do it? An Adam Sandler effort that’s simply not funny.

The Devil Inside

This made-for-Bolivian TV faux found footage horror is about as scary as Bingo and original as white paint.

The Woman in Black

This hasn’t made Daniel Radcliffe any cooler but it’s a serviceable haunted house horror that you wouldn’t stop your tweenage kids going to see.

Once

Too much of a good thing makes Once a dull boy. Contrary to the opinion of the world, this modern musical starts off sound enough before falling into schmaltzy repetition.

War Horse

Diabetes-inducing sappy drama from Spielberg that fails to capture the imagination. A real missed opportunity of a unique premise.

The Hunger

Very stylish and with some things to think about too, Tony Scott’s debut is one of the best, most substantial vampire movies out there. Bar the messy ending, of course.

The Artist

The Artist is a talkie life-lesson with some of the best dialogue ever heard on screen. A must see for all fans of Dawson’s Creek. Honest.

The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas

A heart-wrenching and original Holocaust movie that looks at this horrific event through the innocent eyes of a child. Done with such subtlety and authenticity that it’s much more than just emotional manipulation

Chronicle

This throwaway hit is a refreshingly different and intriguing take on the superhero concept. A great effort by a bunch of big screen newcomers.

Cube

If you can see past the awful dialogue, horrifically cliched characters and terrible writing, you might just be entertained enough to enjoy this cult sc-fi precursor to Saw.
