"See The Dark Knight and you're guaranteed an exceptionally dark night at the cinema. You'll also see the finest superhero movie in years -- no joke." -- Daily Mirror [UK]
Posted Jul 16, 2008
 
The Dark Knight (2008)95%
/
2/5
 
"Semi-Pro is beyond resuscitation thanks to about three decent gags throughout. On the rollercoaster track that is now Ferrell’s career, this is close to a new low. And after turkeys like Bewitched, that’s saying quite something." -- Daily Mirror [UK]
Posted Feb 29, 2008
 
Semi-Pro (2008)21%
/
2/5
 
"A big-name cast including Nicole Kidman, Jack Black and Jennifer Jason Leigh wrestles with a storyline containing industrial-sized quantities of misery and a plot that leaves too many loose ends hanging." -- Daily Mirror [UK]
Posted Feb 29, 2008
 
Margot at the Wedding (2007)51%
/
3/5
 
"In keeping with the title, this Silence Of The Lambs wannabe contains not a trace of originality, but should appeal to those who like their thrillers with a side order of gore." -- Daily Mirror [UK]
Posted Feb 29, 2008
 
Untraceable (2008)15%
/
4/5
 
"Light-hearted but no comedy, dark but not depressing, a Cockney caper that’s never close to larky, it’s a back-to-basics Brit flick that tells a good story with a minimum of pretension." -- Daily Mirror [UK]
Posted Feb 29, 2008
 
The Bank Job (2008)78%
/
4/5
 
"Hoffman’s reliably superb while Albert Finney, as the lads’ father, is as good as he’s ever been." -- Daily Mirror [UK]
Posted Jan 11, 2008
 
Before the Devil Knows You're Dead (2007)88%
/
2/5
 
"About as riotous as gassing yourself during a wet weekend in Worksop." -- Daily Mirror [UK]
Posted Jan 11, 2008
 
Dan in Real Life (2007)65%
/
3/5
 
"The film itself may be uneven, but it’s worth catching for Hoffman alone who gets to deliver some of the funniest lines to grace a movie in years." -- Daily Mirror [UK]
Posted Jan 11, 2008
 
Charlie Wilson's War (2007)83%
/
3/5
 
"Unfortunately, the scenes between the sex and violence, while beautiful, will test your patience." -- Daily Mirror [UK]
Posted Jan 4, 2008
 
Lust, Caution (2007)70%
/
2/5
 
"Dreary with a capital D." -- Daily Mirror [UK]
Posted Dec 28, 2007
 
Paranoid Park (2008)74%
/
1/5
 
"It’s a hodge-podge of Enter The Dragon and Blades Of Glory, yet infinitely worse than either. In short, a film about bouncing balls with the bounce of an anvil." -- Daily Mirror [UK]
Posted Dec 28, 2007
 
Balls of Fury (2007)23%
/
4/5
 
"The third of the film given to the boys’ childhood adventures is excellent, both kids fully convincing as pals who’ll never part." -- Daily Mirror [UK]
Posted Dec 28, 2007
 
The Kite Runner (2007)67%
/
3/5
 
"I Am Legend feels like a work in progress, the sort of movie you can bet will get the director’s cut treatment when it’s released on DVD. In the meantime, we have a film that doesn’t make sense and boasts dire special effects." -- Daily Mirror [UK]
Posted Dec 28, 2007
 
I Am Legend (2007)69%
/
2/5
 
"Trying with all its might to be endearing, the magic is simply missing. Hoffman is unbelievably annoying as the lisping Willy Wonka wannabe, while Portman looks uninterested." -- Daily Mirror [UK]
Posted Dec 14, 2007
 
Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium (2007)36%
/
3/5
 
"Kicking off as a traditional 2-D animation before transforming into live animation when we hit the Big Apple, the film's title doesn't quite describe the film's likely effect on adults, but girls aged six-12 are sure to love it." -- Daily Mirror [UK]
Posted Dec 14, 2007
 
Enchanted (2007)93%
/
3/5
 
"The animation is fine, the plot accessible enough for youngsters and it clocks in at a snappy hour and a half." -- Daily Mirror [UK]
Posted Dec 14, 2007
 
Bee Movie (2007)52%
/
3/5
 
"Quality actors Joaquin Phoenix, Mark Wahlberg and Robert Duvall do their best to breathe life into a deeply average cop thriller/family drama." -- Daily Mirror [UK]
Posted Dec 14, 2007
 
We Own The Night (2007)54%
/
2/5
 
"Also featuring a small turn from Matt Damon, it’s a piecemeal, muddled affair that, were it not for that big name at the top of the credits, might never have been made at all." -- Daily Mirror [UK]
Posted Dec 14, 2007
 
Youth Without Youth (2007)29%
/
 
"While quite possibly the stupidest thing you’ve ever seen in your life, this documentary exploring the world of air guitar enthusiasts is a riot from start to finish." -- Daily Mirror [UK]
Posted Nov 9, 2007
 
Air Guitar Nation (2007)83%
/
 
"Thoughtful without being particularly thought-provoking, heartfelt but not always emotionally engaging, it gets my thumbs up due to some beautiful, haunting shots of America at its wildest." -- Daily Mirror [UK]
Posted Nov 9, 2007
 
Into the Wild (2007)83%
/
 
"Insanely violent, ludicrously gory and probably as much fun as you’ll have in a cinema this year." -- Daily Mirror [UK]
Posted Nov 9, 2007
 
Planet Terror (2007)77%
/
 
"If it wasn’t for the presence of leading lady Jessica Alba, Good Luck Chuck would be lucky to get even a DVD release." -- Daily Mirror [UK]

Good Luck Chuck (2007)3%
/
4/5
 
"The Lookout drags itself into four star territory thanks to the startling turn from Gordon-Levitt – a name to, ahem, look out for." -- Daily Mirror [UK]
Posted Nov 2, 2007
 
The Lookout (2007)87%
/
3/5
 
"There’s some nicely written dialogue in this remake of a foreign movie, but it’s all extremely unsatisfying thanks to a so-what? ending and the script’s inability to make us warm to its two principal characters." -- Daily Mirror [UK]
Posted Nov 2, 2007
 
Interview (2007)57%
/
3/5
 
"An extremely gory but never completely gripping horror." -- Daily Mirror [UK]
Posted Nov 2, 2007
 
30 Days of Night (2007)49%
/
2/5
 
"As funny as losing a finger." -- Daily Mirror [UK]
Posted Nov 2, 2007
 
Death at a Funeral (2007)62%
/
3/5
 
"Despite all that’s going for it, you can’t help thinking this movie could have been so much better." -- Daily Mirror [UK]
Posted Nov 2, 2007
 
Elizabeth: The Golden Age (2007)34%
/
 
"Evening is a film about regrets that doesn’t say an awful lot, but somehow holds your attention with the scenes between Redgrave and Streep sure to bring a tear to your eye – or at least your mum’s." -- Daily Mirror [UK]
Posted Sep 21, 2007
 
Evening (2007)27%
/
 
"Pronouncing Adam Sandler’s latest comedy anything but a disaster of Chernobyl-sized proportions is beyond me." -- Daily Mirror [UK]
Posted Sep 21, 2007
 
I Now Pronounce You Chuck And Larry (2007)13%
/
 
"Topical, worthy and well made, A Mighty Heart fumbles the ball due to a complete dearth of tension and a flat-as-a-pancake performance from Jolie." -- Daily Mirror [UK]
Posted Sep 21, 2007
 
A Mighty Heart (2007)77%
/
 
"Death Proof is an out-and-out dud, a film so profoundly dull, so relentlessly misguided, so criminally self-indulgent you almost feel bad criticising it. It’s like kicking a man on crutches." -- Daily Mirror [UK]
Posted Sep 21, 2007
 
Death Proof (2007)61%
/
3/5
 
"Sure, it’s not going to break any box-office records, but this is a poignant, thoughtful film that deserves a wider audience than the handful likely to see it." -- Daily Mirror [UK]
Posted Sep 7, 2007
 
Small Engine Repair (2006)86%
/
3/5
 
"Fans of British geezer films would be better off checking out I.D. – this is best enjoyed after a night at the pub on DVD." -- Daily Mirror [UK]
Posted Sep 7, 2007
 
Rise of the Footsoldier (2007)14%
/
 
"You’ll laugh a bit, but not much, while your interest in the storyline will hover between mild interest and vague indifference. Needless to say, all memories of this movie will evaporate on contact with daylight." -- Daily Mirror [UK]
Posted Sep 7, 2007
 
Run, Fat Boy, Run (2008)48%

"Atonement is an awesome achievement – I urge you to see it as soon as you can." -- Daily Mirror [UK]
Posted Sep 7, 2007
 
Atonement (2007)83%
/
2/5
 
"Less a movie and more a sustained panic attack, Sugarhouse is so unrelentingly violent, it’s like being beaten with a housebrick for 90 minutes." -- Daily Mirror [UK]
Posted Aug 24, 2007
 
Sugarhouse (2007)29%
/
4/5
 
"It may be too ponderous for some, and an appearance by Anjelica Huston as a snake-oil peddler near the end is a touch too surreal, but if you’re a fan of Westerns the way they used to make them, you’ll be mesmerised." -- Daily Mirror [UK]
Posted Aug 24, 2007
 
Seraphim Falls (2007)54%
/
4/5
 
"Knocked Up really is the comedy of the year." -- Daily Mirror [UK]
Posted Aug 24, 2007
 
Knocked Up (2007)91%
/
3/5
 
"Probably more one for arthouse fans, Lady Chatterley lingers in the mind not because of all that nudity – and there’s a lot – but because it’s so beautifully made." -- Daily Mirror [UK]
Posted Aug 24, 2007
 
Lady Chatterley (2007)74%
/
1/5
 
"It flunks because it’s one of the daftest, dullest films I’ve seen in an absolute age." -- Daily Mirror [UK]

Captivity (2007)7%
/
2/5
 
"Although Lucky You was made nearly two years ago, it seems Warner Brothers didn’t quite know what to do with it, hence it being quietly slipped out in a quiet week between blockbusters. Maybe they hoped nobody would notice." -- Daily Mirror [UK]
Posted Jun 22, 2007
 
Lucky You (2007)28%
/
3/5
 
"The film gets three stars because it’s such an impressive production – and of course the soundtrack kicks – but it’ll still probably leave you feeling strangely cold." -- Daily Mirror [UK]
Posted Jun 22, 2007
 
La Vie En Rose (2007)75%
/
4/5
 
"GEORGE BUSH loves to lecture us about how his war on terror is all about preserving freedom and spreading democracy. What he doesn’t tell us is how for the past 50 years, the US has covertly tried to crush both in a bid to control South America" -- Daily Mirror [UK]
Posted Jun 15, 2007
 
The War on Democracy (2007)83%
/
3/5
 
"With shades of Psycho and The Birds, Vacancy sure isn’t up there with The Master’s finest work but, given that we haven’t had a decent horror all year, it’s a pleasantly creepy surprise." -- Daily Mirror [UK]
Posted Jun 15, 2007
 
Vacancy (2007)56%
/
3/5
 
"With its chirpy score, lovable characters and Festival Of Britain flavour, Grow Your Own would have bedded in nicely as a TV movie. On the big screen, it starts to wilt." -- Daily Mirror [UK]
Posted Jun 15, 2007
 
Grow Your Own (2007)57%
/
2/5
 
"KAPOW! The world’s most boring superheroes return to lull us back to sleep in a sequel that could put the makers of Nytol out of business." -- Daily Mirror [UK]

The Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer (2007)35%

"Give your money to charity. Throw it out of the window. Set it on fire. Just don't waste it by paying to see this." -- Daily Mirror [UK]

"Rubbish." -- Daily Mirror [UK]

Color of Freedom (2007)44%

"Apart from a few nerve-jangling moments at the start and some snazzy digital effects, this is about as pointless and unnecessary as sequels get." -- Daily Mirror [UK]
