Escape To Victory

So bad it’s good. Unless you don’t like war films, Sly Stallone or football. In which case, what is wrong with you?

Mulholland Dr.

Still recovering from the mild stroke I suffered whilst watching this very complex thriller from master-of-that-kind-of-thing David Lynch. An excellent movie if you give it your full attention.

The Five-Year Engagement

Like much of Apatow’s work, this is too long to be enjoyable. With a more compact runtime and less oddbal characters flying around, it could have been much better.

Madagascar 3: Europe's Most Wanted

Inoffensive fun for the kids with everyone tagging along from the first two installments but with enough new stuff to keep the kids, and any adults who might be partially paying attention, entertained.

Prometheus

Ridley Scott sets up Prometheus perfectly, only to vomit up a very unsatisfactory conclusion. A missed opportunity.

Trollhunter

This faux-footage offering from Norway is simultaneously funny, innovative, ridiculous and sometimes a little scary. It’s an enjoyable study into the real life world of trolls – as long as you can look past the cartoony appearance of the CGI beasts.

Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan

One of the defining comedies of the Noughties that somehow makes you think despite being hugely offensive and, on the surface, pretty absurb.

Hello! How Are You?

A refreshingly different romantic comedy that paints love in Romanian in a new light.

Iron Man

Made when a one-man Robert Downey Jr. show was novel and a lot less annoying, Iron Man is a successfull comic book adaption with a nice balance of humour, plot and action.

The Dictator

Not exactly original or groundbreaking but The Dictator is Sasha Baron Cohen back to his best. Lots of offensively good gags and a massive performance from the comedian himself.
