"Despite the genuine excitement, and one blinding flash of the old genius, this new Indy film looks like it's going through the motions." -- Guardian [UK]

The Aerial (2007)60%

2/5
 
"Despite the convulsively jittery address to the role, [Downey] is never in the smallest degree engaging in the way director Jon Favreau appears to think." -- Guardian [UK]

Iron Man (2008)93%

"Intense and very involving drama by Belgian director Joachim Lafosse." -- Guardian [UK]

Private Property (2006)69%
/
2/5
 
"There's plenty of empty bravura, and Reeves is fundamentally blank and uninteresting." -- Guardian [UK]
Posted Apr 18, 2008
 
Street Kings (2008)36%
/
4/5
 
"Farrell has brought his A-game to this cracking little comedy-noir written and directed by Martin McDonagh. He is absolutely superb." -- Guardian [UK]

In Bruges (2008)80%

1/5
 
"Matthew McConaughey, whose continuing Hollywood career deserves a separate chapter in any future book by Richard Dawkins on the non-existence of God, is reunited for this romcom caper with Kate Hudson, herself uncompromisingly abysmal in everything." -- Guardian [UK]
Posted Apr 18, 2008
 
Fool's Gold (2008)10%
/
4/5
 
"In the factory-farmed blandness of the movies, Happy-Go-Lucky has a strong, real taste." -- Guardian [UK]
Posted Apr 18, 2008
 
Happy-Go-Lucky (2008)94%
/
5/5
 
"Spectacular chases, fires and explosions are captured with fluid camerawork. There are no stunt doubles for Keaton and of course no digital effects." -- Guardian [UK]
Posted Apr 2, 2008
 
The General (1927)91%
/
5/5
 
"The movie's blazing energy is still astounding; the vérité street-scenes are terrific and Scorsese's pioneering use of popular music is genuinely thrilling." -- Guardian [UK]
Posted Mar 31, 2008
 
Mean Streets (1973)98%
/
4/5
 
"Andersson is radically different from anyone else, with a technical, compositional rigour that puts other movie-makers and visual artists to shame." -- Guardian [UK]
Posted Mar 28, 2008
 
You, The Living (2007)100%
/
4/5
 
"With terrific poise and the crispest, cleanest cinematography imaginable, the 27-year-old French director Céline Sciamma has given us a very provocative and stylish drama set in the world of teenage girls' synchronised swimming." -- Guardian [UK]
Posted Mar 14, 2008
 
Water Lilies (2007)79%
/
3/5
 
"Nice performances from Shearsmith and Serkis, and some outrageous ketchupy grossout, though I have to say The Cottage has nothing like the rigour, originality or power of Williams's debut." -- Guardian [UK]
Posted Mar 14, 2008
 
The Cottage (2008)71%
/
1/5
 
"Harmony Korine's new film is a whimsical, lazily conceived tragicomedy about lookalike impersonators, and it is so pointless and irritating that after a while I literally found it difficult to breathe." -- Guardian [UK]
Posted Mar 14, 2008
 
Mister Lonely (2008)43%
/
2/5
 
"Just weeks after U2's 3D concert movie comes another shameless cash-in." -- Guardian [UK]
Posted Mar 14, 2008
 
Hannah Montana & Miley Cyrus: Best of Both Worlds Concert (2008)75%

The Flight of the Red Balloon (2008)78%

3/5
 
"Legendary screenwriter Joe Eszterhas brings his sledgehammer touch to this heartfelt movie about Hungary, the embattled country of his forebears." -- Guardian [UK]
Posted Mar 14, 2008
 
Szabadság, Szerelem (2006)90%
/
2/5
 
"Roland Emmerich's great big CGI blockbuster lumbers along like one of the woolly mammoths that roam across the screen." -- Guardian [UK]
Posted Mar 14, 2008
 
10,000 B.C. (2008)9%
/

"A barf-inducer. A hurl-promoter. A projectile-vomit-stimulator." -- Guardian [UK]
Posted Mar 7, 2008
 
The Game Plan (2007)27%
/
2/5
 
"The opening news-report sequence is very strong. But from there on in ... well, what more is there to say about the zombie genre and its metaphors for our undead society?" -- Guardian [UK]
Posted Mar 7, 2008
 
George A. Romero's Diary of the Dead (2008)60%
/
3/5
 
"It is absurd yet enjoyable, and playing fast and loose with English history is a refreshing alternative to slow and tight solemnity; the effect is genial, even mildly subversive." -- Guardian [UK]
Posted Mar 7, 2008
 
The Other Boleyn Girl (2008)42%
/
1/5
 
"Flatulent, conceited and very, very confusing." -- Guardian [UK]
Posted Mar 2, 2008
 
Demonlover (2003)48%
/
3/5
 
"This new variation on the theme isn't bad, in a gruesome and horrible way, and features a strong performance from Diane Lane as an FBI agent." -- Guardian [UK]
Posted Feb 29, 2008
 
Untraceable (2008)15%
/
2/5
 
"In some ways, I enjoyed this movie more than any of his features, and yet it's sad that he has drawn in his horns so much." -- Guardian [UK]
Posted Feb 29, 2008
 
The Boss of it All (2007)73%
/
1/5
 
"This week we learned that 99% of Sun readers want a return to capital punishment. I learned that 100% of me wants it for 100% of people involved in this romcom." --
Posted Feb 29, 2008
 
The Accidental Husband (2008)0%
/
1/5
 
"Chillingly devoid of laughs, and looks like some deconstructionist experiment, deliberately draining the comedy genre of jokes to show the parched, pointless story-skeleton beneath." -- Guardian [UK]
Posted Feb 29, 2008
 
Semi-Pro (2008)21%
/
1/5
 
"Humourless (though supposedly a comedy) and pretentious, almost a parody of the self-indulgent Sundance festival film, right down to the washed-out colours, droning dialogue and the title in big sans-serif capitals." -- Guardian [UK]
Posted Feb 29, 2008
 
Margot at the Wedding (2007)51%
/
4/5
 
"Bertolucci's film has the compelling quality of a bad dream." -- Guardian [UK]

The Conformist (1970)100%

3/5
 
"Enjoyable, if blandly celebratory." -- Guardian [UK]
Posted Feb 26, 2008
 
Midnight Movies: From the Margin to the Mainstream (2007)88%
/
1/5
 
"This serial-killer horror is a knockoff of the now seriously knackered Saw franchise." -- Guardian [UK]
Posted Feb 22, 2008
 
WAZ (2007)77%

1/5
 
"U2 just look like four conceited billionaires who are further up themselves than ever." -- Guardian [UK]
Posted Feb 22, 2008
 
U2 3D (2008)92%
/
3/5
 
"Hollywood showbiz is about the now and the new, so there is something subversive about Gondry pitching his tent in the wasteground of obsolescence behind the gleaming edifice of modernity." -- Guardian [UK]
Posted Feb 22, 2008
 
Be Kind Rewind (2008)68%
/
3/5
 
"Leonard Bernstein's rich, eloquent and demanding score is still a powerful experience." -- Guardian [UK]
Posted Feb 19, 2008
 
West Side Story (1961)94%
/
5/5
 
"It's impossible not to be carried away by the rich arterial force of this storytelling." -- Guardian [UK]
Posted Feb 19, 2008
 
Gone With the Wind (1939)97%
/
4/5
 
"Fine performances from everyone, and a self-effacing, enigmatic star turn from Anjelica Huston herself." -- Guardian [UK]
Posted Feb 5, 2008
 
The Dead (1988)91%
/
2/5
 
"Some laughs, but you expect more from Apatow." -- Guardian [UK]
Posted Jan 18, 2008
 
Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story (2007)75%
/
2/5
 
"A mish-mash of secondhand ideas, with some real misfires." -- Guardian [UK]
Posted Jan 18, 2008
 
The Good Night (2007)26%
/
3/5
 
"A sophisticated meditation on community, transgression and the law." -- Guardian [UK]

Back to Normandy (2008)92%
/
1/5
 
"The world's most illogical and boring action-horror grudge-match between two dull trademarked franchise monsters is back on." -- Guardian [UK]
Posted Jan 18, 2008
 
Aliens Vs. Predator: Requiem (2007)14%
/
5/5
 
"Watching this film has something of the elemental thrill of watching a cloud-shadow spread with miraculous speed over a vast, empty landscape: it has a chilly, portentous intuition of what America is." -- Guardian [UK]
Posted Jan 18, 2008
 
No Country for Old Men (2007)95%
/
2/5
 
"It's amiable enough, but the ickiness levels are too high and Juliette Binoche always looks uncomfortable in this shallow-end material." -- Guardian [UK]
Posted Jan 11, 2008
 
Dan in Real Life (2007)65%
/
2/5
 
"It all adds up to something very unsatisfying, and less than honest." -- Guardian [UK]
Posted Jan 11, 2008
 
Charlie Wilson's War (2007)83%
/
5/5
 
" In its relentless and uncompromising nastiness, cold-sweat tension and fear, its serious engagement with the idea of evil and sin and finally in the way it evolves, persuasively, into a kind of contemporary family tragedy, this is in a different league." -- Guardian [UK]
Posted Jan 11, 2008
 
Before the Devil Knows You're Dead (2007)88%
/
3/5
 
"I am a little unsure that the themes, images and ideas in all this come together as satisfactorily as they should, but it is a serious and worthwhile piece of work from a director with a real cinematic language." -- Guardian [UK]
Posted Jan 4, 2008
 
Half Moon: A Musician's Last Journey (2007)100%
/
4/5
 
"For his sheer muscular verve and ambition, Lee deserves a standing ovation." -- Guardian [UK]
Posted Jan 4, 2008
 
Lust, Caution (2007)70%
/
3/5
 
"Another sort of movie would find a feelgood way of resolving the story; Vargas's vision is more grim and more realistic, but it is persuasively real, and in Tavira the director has found a natural star of the screen." -- Guardian [UK]
Posted Jan 4, 2008
 
The Violin (2007)94%
/
4/5
 
"A fine and perhaps unique example of that trickiest of genres, the road movie, and the sort of film that really does deserve the cliched response: they don't make them like that any more, because they really don't." -- Guardian [UK]
Posted Jan 4, 2008
 
Alice in the Cities ()100%
/
3/5
 
"A workmanlike, if decaffeinated version of Khaled Hosseini's bestselling novel." -- Guardian [UK]
Posted Dec 28, 2007
 
The Kite Runner (2007)67%
/
3/5
 
"The movie doesn't narrate what happened so much as immerse itself in Alex's numb state of alienation and denial, which I didn't find quite as rewarding as I guess I was supposed to." -- Guardian [UK]
