Whale Rider
Picturesque, slow-paced, atmospheric and very well-acted but lacking a little in spark and invention.
Alien3
Marvellously directed and well-acted, but a dirty and wholly unrewarding experience, containing major plot-holes thanks to a complete disregard of what went on in the previous movie.

An intense, explosion-filled edge-of-the-seat space romp that easily lives up to its predecessor.
