This is a decent thriller with convincing performances. You dont necessarily believe the story, but the film is engrossing enough to be worth suspending your disbelief for a couple of hours and taking it at face value.

Heartlands
A story that shows there can be so much more to life!
Ghost Ship
Unimpressed. Nothing you haven't seen before. Hollywood please take note we expect much better than this.
40 days and 40 nights
While Hartnett is a good male lead, he doesn't quite pull it off (no pun intended) successfully in this quirky movie about sex. It's not over funny and certainly nothing new. Complete with hugely predictable 'does he get the girl?' ending and over the top characters – as a romantic comedy, it succeeds at entertaining, if only barely.
Evelyn
A true celebration of inner strength.
Dragonfly
A slow film in which the main character's spiritual journey rarely seems to make much progress. A must for Costner fans, of course, but unlikely to make much impact on anyone else.
