"It is delicious for 30 minutes. Then the plot starts." -- Financial Times
Posted Jul 18, 2008
 
WALL-E (2008)96%
/
 
"While other countries do state-of-the-art schadenfreude, we are stuck in the steam age. We feed coal into the engines of old-fashioned heist thrillers." -- Financial Times
Posted Feb 29, 2008
 
The Bank Job (2008)78%
/
 
"Very unpleasant, though skilfully put together by director Gregory Hoblit and acted with beyond-the-call empathy by Ms Lane." -- Financial Times
Posted Feb 29, 2008
 
Untraceable (2008)15%
/
 
"The script and story are what matter. They are as neat and interlocked as nail scissors. They are also grimly funny." -- Financial Times
Posted Feb 29, 2008
 
The Boss of it All (2007)73%
/
 
"There is such a thing as binge pessimism. It happens when one living disaster area, considered insufficient in a story, is served up with several others, causing audience braincells to swirl, stagger and collide against thalamic lampposts." -- Financial Times
Posted Feb 29, 2008
 
Margot at the Wedding (2007)51%
/
 
"Nasty, brutish and at 89 minutes just the right length." -- Financial Times
Posted Feb 22, 2008
 
Black Water (2007)79%
/
 
"Think of Saw and multiply it by Seven." -- Financial Times
Posted Feb 22, 2008
 
WAZ (2007)77%
/
 
"A script with terminal shortcomings – wincingly winsome, ferally fey – is negotiated by brave actors picking their way through the minefield." -- Financial Times
Posted Feb 22, 2008
 
My Blueberry Nights (2008)47%
/
 
"The hero’s iconic inertia is photographed against molten skies or Judgment Day sunsets, providing moments of mythic repose between the pell-mell battle scenes." -- Financial Times
Posted Feb 22, 2008
 
Rambo (2008)35%
/
 
"100 minutes of sweet-natured idiocy." -- Financial Times
Posted Feb 22, 2008
 
Be Kind Rewind (2008)68%

"Quietly mesmerising." -- Times [UK]
Posted Jan 4, 2008
 
Lust, Caution (2007)70%
/
 
"Transposed from a novel by Blake Nelson, the boy is played by newcomer Gabe Nevins with all the complexity and three-dimensionality of a magazine centrefold." -- Financial Times
Posted Dec 28, 2007
 
Paranoid Park (2008)74%
/
 
"first-time feature director Francis Lawrence deserves an ovation for his scene-setting and early scare count." -- Financial Times
Posted Dec 28, 2007
 
I Am Legend (2007)69%
/
 
"The measured mise-en-scène is fine for the boyhood scenes. Character-building alternates with brief bursts of image music, such as the kite-flying contest that fills the Kabul sky with darting, colourful fabric-birds." -- Financial Times
Posted Dec 28, 2007
 
The Kite Runner (2007)67%
/
 
"One is unsure what the menu is meant to be in this satire/drama/melodrama." -- Financial Times
Posted Dec 14, 2007
 
Chromophobia (2005)31%
/
 
"Offers little that Scorsese doesn’t offer with more élan and wit." -- Financial Times
Posted Dec 14, 2007
 
We Own The Night (2007)54%
/
 
"The script is dapper and the story slick. But it is Huppert who gives it heft, style and star power." -- Financial Times
Posted Dec 14, 2007
 
Comedy of Power (2005)80%
/
 
"No wise child, let alone grown-up, will touch this with a turkey baster." -- Financial Times
Posted Dec 14, 2007
 
Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium (2007)36%
/
 
"The comic possibilities, once floated, eventually capsize." -- Financial Times
Posted Dec 14, 2007
 
Enchanted (2007)93%

"The best we can award is bee minus." -- Financial Times
Posted Dec 14, 2007
 
Bee Movie (2007)52%

"They ought to send the whole of The Killing of John Lennon up in flames." -- Financial Times
Posted Dec 7, 2007
 
The Killing of John Lennon (2008)35%
/
 
"Ben Kingsley brings a batty, basilisk wit to You Kill Me, a black comedy about a dipsomaniacal hitman." -- Financial Times
Posted Dec 7, 2007
 
You Kill Me (2007)79%
/
 
"Whether this is a demented B-movie or a comment on demented B-movies is hard to say. It is horribly fascinating, if not for the full 150 minutes." -- Financial Times
Posted Dec 7, 2007
 
Southland Tales (2007)34%
/
 
"Almost nothing remains at the end – not a glimmer of mystical inquisition, not a teasing loose-end of space-time speculation – to lure a Pullmanite towards a sequel." -- Financial Times
Posted Dec 7, 2007
 
The Golden Compass (2007)41%
/
 
"Hypnotic, so real-yet-otherworldly, that the filmgoer has a virtual out-of-body experience." -- Financial Times

Silent Night (2006)91%

"Set on the battlefields of the Great War – very high-concept – it will drive many Mozart traditionalists to distraction." -- Financial Times

"An archly mirthless comedy." -- Financial Times
Posted Nov 30, 2007
 
Fred Claus (2007)22%
/
 
"A strong wire netting will keep out unwanted super-soaps such as the first, in which a black family in LA proves that being Afro-American is no inoculation against outbreaks of schmaltz and piety." -- Financial Times
Posted Nov 30, 2007
 
This Christmas (2007)54%
/
 
"It is beguilingly cuckoo, though as primitive visually as The Twilight Zone – it was shot in 22 days – and about as profound." -- Financial Times
Posted Nov 30, 2007
 
The Nines (2007)68%
/
 
" How good to see gong-givers recognise that good acting can be covert, not overt, and that in the right artistic acoustic a performer doesn’t need to shout to be heard." -- BadMovies.org B-Movie Reviews
Posted Nov 30, 2007
 
The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford (2007)75%

"The film is fresh, spectacular and unafraid to be called philistine." -- Financial Times
Posted Nov 30, 2007
 
The Magic Flute (2006)69%
/
 
"Affleck and Pitt have prime charge of the tale’s humanity and vitality. The first has nervous headlamp eyes and a wheedling, accosting intensity: he is like a homeless pet you would feel sorry for up to the moment it bit you." -- Financial Times
Posted Nov 30, 2007
 
The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford (2007)75%
/
 
"Think Fatal Attraction gone French and gone wrong." -- Financial Times

Posted Nov 15, 2007
 
The Jane Austen Book Club (2007)65%
/
 
"Characters make love, make meals, make conversation – though not much – and in moments of transcendence remake the world according to their fantasies and longings." -- Financial Times
Posted Nov 15, 2007
 
The Wayward Cloud (2007)82%
/
 
"Spare an evening, if you feel adventurous." -- Financial Times
Posted Nov 15, 2007
 
I Don't Want To Sleep Alone (2007)88%
/
 
"The film is full of fabrics and shimmer and embroiderings of light and colour, giving a slender story the shy blush of art." -- Financial Times
Posted Nov 15, 2007
 
Brick Lane (2008)62%
/
 
"The bloodiest 12A (UK) rating in memory." -- Financial Times
Posted Nov 15, 2007
 
Beowulf (2007)69%

American Gangster (2007)79%

Lions for Lambs (2007)28%

"A dream movie." -- Financial Times

"Zodiac is that marvel and rarity, an adult Hollywood murder thriller." -- Financial Times
Posted Oct 15, 2007
 
Zodiac (2007)89%
/
 
"Kevin Costner as a schizophrenic serial killer? Demi Moore as a hardboiled police detective? No, we don’t think so." -- Financial Times
Posted Oct 12, 2007
 
Mr. Brooks (2007)56%

"Good, camp fun." -- Financial Times
Posted Oct 12, 2007
 
Black Sheep (2007)71%

"Ruzowitsky’s film, austerely shot and scripted with terse wit, grants itself a licence to make art in exchange for entertaining us with a gripping story." -- Financial Times
