Another Scorsese classic, its not the horror film it was touted as, but thats OK, because its just plain good.
Amores Perros
This hard-hitting drama following intersecting lives on the mean streets of Mexico boasts quality storytelling, an interesting context and Gael García Bernal’s breakthrough role. Well-worth it as a foray into Latin American film-making. Not suitable for vegetarians.
The Bounty Hunter
This romantic comedy cum half baked crime thriller is a hopelessly unfunny, unoriginal and ultra-irritating movie. On this form Aniston and Butler, and their slappable faces, should be consigned to the scrapheap of Hollywood.
Kick-Ass
A fresh and inventive superhero satire that provides spot on humour, involving characters and a rousing soundtrack to a world (okay, maybe just me) tiring of a saturated comic book genre.
The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo
Measured storytelling, comprehensive characterisation and a number of hard-to-spot plot twists, should make this perfectly crafted crime thriller Sweden’s best export since Ikea.
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.
