Green Zone

Greengrass and Damon deliver enough intrigue and full blooded action to satisfy fans of the Bourne series but they fail to create three-dimensional characters or add anything substantial to the genre.

Children of Men

With an involving story, realistic setting and well executed action scenes, Children of Men is one of the best Dystopian movies out there.

The Crazies

A lot better than the title would have you believe, this superior remake has the right amount of substance and chills.

Micmacs

Being too kooky for it’s own good makes Micmacs a cringing watch.

The Wolfman

Not a bad horror remake but with maximum werewolf screen-time it’s all looks a little ridiculous.

Room 36

A bargain bin Film Noir Black Comedy with plenty of style but full of cringing humour.

Edge of Darkness

Mel Gibson is back with this middle-of-the-road conspiracy thriller that’s spoiled by hammy dialogue, Ray Winstone and a tedious storyline.

12 Angry Men

An exceptionally executed courtroom drama – without the courtroom but with a whole lot of riveting drama.

A quality hardbitten crime drama that prevails thanks to an admirable depth and an out-of-the-ordinary context.

The Book of Eli

A post-Apocalytpic Western that’s just not as good as many others out there.
