The Stepford Wives

It’s safe to say nobody will remember this version twenty years down the line – but it’s a reasonable enough distraction while it’s on.

Infernal Affairs II

If Infernal Affairs was The Godfather of Hong Kong double-crossing drama, then this is a sequel as satisfying as The Godfather Part 2

A Snake of June

A stylish puzzle about the intimate secrets which images contain and conceal.

I, Robot

This crowd-pleasing tale of android revolution and evolution is as sleek, efficient and dynamic as a robot – and, but for the presence of Will Smith, just as soulless.

The Stepford Wives

In this effective sci-fi satire of the neanderthal sexual politics of 1970s middle America, the women keep serving only if they are kept serviced.

Salinui chueok

Darkly surreal study of ordinary evil, based on a real-life hunt for a killer in 1980s Korea.

Open Water

Tense, strangely poetic drama which will change forever the way you think about holiday snaps.

The Last Minute

Bizarre, but far from inane – give it a go if you fancy something a bit different.

Godsend

One of the creepiest movies of the year, even if it’s not one of the most plausible.

Highwaymen

A tale of motorway madness that wheely doesn’t work (a bit like that last pun, come to think of it).
