"An enjoyable, polished thriller, ideal for Friday night entertainment." -- Channel 4 Film
Posted Apr 29, 2008
 
Inside Man (2006)86%
/
2/5
 
"A by-the-numbers, cynical, bad cop-worse cops drama, made even less appealing by Reeves's mannequin-like presence." -- Channel 4 Film
Posted Apr 18, 2008
 
Street Kings (2008)33%
/
2.5/5
 
"An amiable, good looking if largely inconsequential comedy that coasts on its stars' charms." -- Channel 4 Film
Posted Apr 11, 2008
 
Leatherheads (2008)53%
/
 
"A worthy addition to familiar triumph-of-the-underdog stories." -- Channel 4 Film
Posted Mar 25, 2008
 
Coach Carter (2005)63%
/
3/5
 
"Less contentious than typical Von Trier but also less satisfying; fun but perhaps too stiflingly clever to allow the comedy room to breathe." -- Channel 4 Film
Posted Feb 29, 2008
 
The Boss of it All (2007)73%
/
2/5
 
"Rocky Balboa eventually aged gracefully but Rambo remains mired in gratuitous violence, dubious ideology and cheap sentiment. If anyone sees Stallone contemplating further adventures, don't push him." -- Channel 4 Film
Posted Feb 22, 2008
 
Rambo (2008)33%
/
 
"An absorbing, polished character study powered by an epic performance." -- Channel 4 Film
Posted Feb 19, 2008
 
Patton (1970)97%
 N/A  
"Laura Linney on The Savages: The RT Interview" -- Rotten Tomatoes
Posted Jan 25, 2008
 
The Savages (2007)90%
/
2.5/5
 
"Ambitious, heartfelt but, Plummer's excellent performance aside, dramatically lightweight and unconvincing." -- Channel 4 Film
Posted Jan 24, 2008
 
Man in the Chair (2007)50%
/
4/5
 
"A powerful, incisive, often very funny look at aging, ailing family dynamics, superbly acted by two of the best in the business." -- Channel 4 Film
Posted Jan 24, 2008
 
The Savages (2007)90%
/
2.5/5
 
"A bold, initially fascinating but ultimately misguided attempt to 'Pinter-ize' an old-fashioned puzzle. Great mysteries leave their audience marveling 'how did they do that?' Sleuth 2007 leaves you scratching your head, wondering why they bothered." -- Channel 4 Film
Posted Nov 23, 2007
 
Sleuth (2007)35%
/
2/5
 
"Preachy, worthy and far too wordy, Lions For Lambs doesn't roar so much as bleat. Less a movie than a bungled party political broadcast on behalf on the United Artists party." -- Channel 4 Film
Posted Nov 9, 2007
 
Lions for Lambs (2007)28%
/
3/5
 
"A pleasantly unpleasant comedy that belatedly delivers. You won't die laughing but you shouldn't expire from boredom either." -- Channel 4 Film
Posted Nov 2, 2007
 
Death at a Funeral (2007)62%
/
3.5/5
 
"A jaunty, very funny comedy juiced up by a light touch and crack timing from two perfectly matched lead actors." -- Channel 4 Film
Posted Nov 2, 2007
 
Pręte-moi Ta Main (2006)57%
/
2.5/5
 
"A handsome but shallow sequel." -- Channel 4 Film
Posted Nov 2, 2007
 
Elizabeth: The Golden Age (2007)34%
/
2.5/5
 
"A watchable but rigged and strangely forgettable drama that loses its nerve in the way its real-life political quarry rarely does." -- Channel 4 Film
Posted Oct 19, 2007
 
Rendition (2007)47%
/
3.5/5
 
"A thoroughly entertaining if necessarily condensed road trip that you don't have to be a football - or Maradona - fan to enjoy." -- Channel 4 Film
Posted Sep 14, 2007
 
In the Hands of the Gods (2007)85%
/
1.5/5
 
"Ugly." -- Channel 4 Film
Posted Sep 7, 2007
 
Rise of the Footsoldier (2007)14%
/
3/5
 
"An enjoyable if patchy and predictable ride, but Simon Pegg shows he's more than capable of going the distance." -- Channel 4 Film
Posted Sep 7, 2007
 
Run, Fat Boy, Run (2008)48%
/
3.5/5
 
"As Shelly's unintended epitaph, it’s a warm-hearted charmer, filled with hope, served with love." -- thelondonpaper
Posted Aug 10, 2007
 
Waitress (2007)89%
/
3.5/5
 
"A fascinating, heartrending, beautifully compiled glimpse into one expatriate family's filmed self-portrait." -- Channel 4 Film
Posted Aug 3, 2007
 
I for India (2007)100%
/
4/5
 
"A witty, lively period drama that expertly blends comedy and tragedy to create a worthy French counterpart to Shakespeare In Love." -- Channel 4 Film
Posted Jul 13, 2007
 
Moliere (2007)70%
/
2.5/5
 
"Macy is on top form and Mamet fans will savour the vicious barbs of repressed male rage but many will find this is a claustrophobic, stagey exercise without the wit and scope of Glengarry Glen Ross." -- Channel 4 Film
Posted Jul 6, 2007
 
Edmond (2006)46%
/
3/5
 
"Stylish tough guy mayhem that looks great but drags its feet going nowhere new. Election still gets the vote for Johnny To's best film." -- Channel 4 Film
Posted Jun 15, 2007
 
Exiled (2007)81%
/
4/5
 
"A gentle, astute, life-affirming British comedy. Dig in." -- Channel 4 Film
Posted Jun 15, 2007
 
Grow Your Own (2007)57%
/
1/5
 
"An inept, cheap and cheerless comedy that wastes Martin Freeman." -- Channel 4 Film
Posted May 11, 2007
 
The All Together (2007)0%
/
1.5/5
 
"Lazy, smug and mean-spirited, this certainly isn't Spinal Tap or anywhere near as good as Guest and Levy's previous comedies. A mighty disappointment." -- Channel 4 Film
Posted Feb 9, 2007
 
For Your Consideration (2006)51%
/
4/5
 
"An unassuming, minimalist gem that shows how less can be much, much more." -- Channel 4 Film
Posted Jan 26, 2007
 
Old Joy (2006)85%
/
 
"A highly watchable, if somewhat superficial drama that bluffed its way to critical respectability on release." -- Channel 4 Film
Posted May 24, 2003
 
The Cincinnati Kid (1965)93%
