3/5
 
"Certainly a more convincing proposition than the tank-shotputting hot air balloon of Lee's movie." -- Empire Magazine
Posted Jun 11, 2008
 
The Incredible Hulk (2008)67%
/
4/5
 
"Provocative, principled and richly detailed, this is compelling stuff. Emotionally it’s a little dry, but as brain-food, it’s absolutely invigorating. George done good." -- Empire Magazine
Posted Feb 27, 2008
 
Good Night, And Good Luck (2005)94%
/
3/5
 
"A barely disguised B-movie - but one that bites deep." -- Empire Magazine
Posted Feb 22, 2008
 
Black Water (2007)79%
/
2/5
 
"Minus a couple of brisk, black laughs, this hollow remake botches the twists and sucks the fun right out of its feisty source." -- Empire Magazine
Posted Nov 21, 2007
 
Sleuth (2007)35%
/
4/5
 
"Horrifying, heart-breaking, often hilarious - Moore’s latest shock doc is a potent polemic." -- Empire Magazine
Posted Oct 24, 2007
 
Sicko (2007)93%
/
2/5
 
"Like Scream never happened, this is an uneven comedy-horror homage that gets by on enthusiasm alone." -- Empire Magazine
Posted Oct 5, 2007
 
Hatchet (2007)46%
/
4/5
 
"Good and bad, it’s still the definitive ’80s teen movie." -- Empire Magazine
Posted Jul 18, 2007
 
The Breakfast Club (1984)90%
/
2/5
 
"Roth’s slick shock-’em-up sequel is a dispiritingly traditional splat of gristly Grand Guignol. It’s tooled up to outrage, but ultimately numbs rather than grips." -- Empire Magazine
Posted Jun 29, 2007
 
Hostel: Part II (2007)45%
/
2/5
 
"It's like a movie premonition — you've seen it all before." -- Empire Magazine
Posted Apr 6, 2007
 
The Messengers (2007)11%
/
4/5
 
"You'll laugh, you'll gasp, you'll jump, you’ll ask Hollywood for your money back. Seek it out." -- Empire Magazine
Posted Mar 17, 2007
 
The Host (2007)92%
/
4/5
 
"You’ll laugh, you’ll gasp, you’ll jump, you’ll ask Hollywood for your money back. Seek it out." -- Empire Magazine

The Host (2007)92%
/
3/5
 
"Genuinely intriguing in places and romps along at a satisfying pace for a conspiracy thriller." -- Empire Magazine
Posted Feb 20, 2007
 
The Number 23 (2007)8%
/
4/5
 
"Micro-budget, big issues and one of the year's first mini-surprises: Broomfield's turned a pressing, grave topic into a gripping piece of cinema." -- Empire Magazine
Posted Jan 12, 2007
 
Ghosts (2006)100%
/
3/5
 
"For fans, a crowd-surf over Tenacious D’s best bits. For the unbaptised, a novelty movie of a novelty band, big on spirit but in search of a script." -- Empire Magazine
Posted Nov 29, 2006
 
Tenacious D in: The Pick of Destiny (2006)53%
/
3/5
 
"A dreamy but tough ensemble indie that delivers its existential angst with a straight-up Aussie drawl." -- Empire Magazine
Posted Aug 25, 2006
 
Look Both Ways (2006)77%
/
3/5
 
"The first act’s filler, otherwise it’s a squirmer. Bring a bucket." -- Empire Magazine
Posted Aug 2, 2006
 
Hostel (2006)58%
/
3/5
 
"Spunky performances and a dynamic, earthy style boost an otherwise predictable, albeit sexually-charged, latino love triangle." -- Empire Magazine
Posted Apr 1, 2006
 
Lower City (2006)60%
/
4/5
 
"Provocative, principled and richly detailed, this is compelling stuff. Emotionally it's a little dry, but as brain-food, it's absolutely invigorating. George done good." -- Empire Magazine
Posted Apr 1, 2006
 
Good Night, And Good Luck (2005)94%
/
1/5
 
"Don’t be afraid." -- Empire Magazine
Posted Apr 1, 2006
