A simple yet gripping, stripped back tale of kidnap and multiple betrayal with three fine performances and plenty of tension. At last, a really good British crime thriller not based on Mockney geezers or football hooligans.
Reviews
The Lovely Bones
The Lovely Bones is, as a movie not living in the shadow of the book upon which it is based, unique and engaging, and full of a very frightening Stanley Tucci.
300
Historically inaccurate and over the top it may be, but this lesson in how to use CGI properly is certainly a lot of fun. Unless, of course, you are the Dictator of Iran.
Centurion
A Roman adventure yarn that, despite some decent action and an interesting enough plot, annoys in a hundred different ways
The Perfect Game
Dont run out and plunk down your hard-earned bucks for it, but if you want a pleasantly forgettable afternoon of harmless, melodramatic sweetness, go to a matinee with the family.
Furry Vengeance
Dont let anything that might make this movie look appealing fool youeven Brendan Fraser cant save this zoo.
