4/5	" A dead scary horror movie that skimps on the blood but not the goose bumps," -- BBC Posted Oct 7, 2008	Dead of Night (1945)	96%
3/5	" Arty-smarty and impeccably French, this collection of horror �toons delivers some short, sharp shocks amid the occasional misfire. It�s worth seeing for Burns� section alone. Just repeat, it�s only a cartoon�" -- Total Film Posted Oct 3, 2008	Fear(s) of the Dark (2008)	87%
	" Grants all three wishes and some more besides with a brilliant turn from Williams' genie and some beautiful animation." -- Channel 4 Film Posted Sep 1, 2008	Aladdin (1992)	91%
	" The script just doesn't have enough comic moments to fill its 90-minute running time." -- Channel 4 Film Posted Aug 11, 2008	Along Came Polly (2004)	26%
4/5	" Showcases Will Ferrell's comedy genius to perfection." -- Channel 4 Film Posted Jul 31, 2008	Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby (2006)	73%
	" It's the perfect cinematic vehicle -- or at least it would have been, if Radford's adaptation weren't so unremittingly cloddish." -- Channel 4 Film Posted Jul 4, 2008	William Shakespeare's The Merchant of Venice (2004)	70%
5/5	" A landmark of world cinema, this is a rousing, staggering epic and a haunting drama of timeless significance." -- Channel 4 Film Posted Jul 1, 2008	Ran (1985)	96%
4/5	" Whitaker pulls off a spectacular thespian coup that has Oscar-winner stamped all over it." -- Channel 4 Film Posted Jun 25, 2008	The Last King of Scotland (2006)	87%
	" It's a dumb movie masquerading as smart but failing miserably." -- Channel 4 Film Posted May 27, 2008	The Interpreter (2005)	58%
4/5	" Brilliantly funny, inventive and delirious." -- Channel 4 Film Posted May 20, 2008	The Spongebob Squarepants Movie (2004)	68%
4/5	" Hides a big heart beneath a small piglet." -- Channel 4 Film Posted May 12, 2008	Charlotte's Web (2006)	78%
3/5	" Fiendishly unusual, it's an offbeat time-waster that genre fans will definitely want to make a note of." -- BBC Posted Apr 25, 2008	Death Note (2006)	67%
3/5	" Never quite the sum of its parts, this would-be intelligent thriller coasts by on strong supporting performances from Giamatti, Sewell and Biel." -- Channel 4 Film Posted Apr 22, 2008	The Illusionist (2006)	75%
2/5	" This vapid, laugh-lite romp won't satisfy anyone. Except die-hard Jessica Simpson fans." -- Channel 4 Film Posted Apr 22, 2008	Employee of the Month (2006)	21%
4/5	" Huppert is superb, her lonely heroine both sympathetically vulnerable and yet also slightly culpable for her sons' terribly selfish behaviour." -- BBC Posted Apr 18, 2008	Private Property (2006)	69%
2/5	" Lacking gags, proper characters or any comprehensible plot, it never rises above a one-joke movie - and that joke's on us. It's humour Jim, but not as we know it." -- BBC Posted Apr 18, 2008	Captain Eager and the Mark of Voth (2008)	11%
4/5	" Like all Breillat's films it's obsessed with sex, power and gender, its protagonists reduced to tragedy as they desperately wield their weapons of seduction." -- BBC Posted Apr 11, 2008	The Last Mistress (2008)	76%
3/5	" The rapturous camerawork and Chang Chen's performance as Wu both delight, but there's little insight into what makes a game about white and black pebbles so utterly absorbing." -- Total Film Posted Mar 28, 2008	The Go Master (2006)	69%
3/5	" It�s not Superbad (and definitely not supergood) but this throwaway romp teases out some laughs as its Frat Pack star heads back to the classroom. Drillbit could try harder but it�s definitely not a candidate for exclusion." -- Total Film Posted Mar 28, 2008	Drillbit Taylor (2008)	26%
3/5	" Shot like a lush, hypnotic waking dream, it's boldly beautiful and plays some half-smart games with sex, power and gender politics." -- BBC Posted Mar 28, 2008	The Book of Revelation (2006)	82%
4/5	" Haunting and heartbreaking, The Orphanage delivers a double whammy of chills both real and supernatural." -- BBC Posted Mar 18, 2008	The Orphanage (2007)	86%
3/5	" The zombies may be dead but George Romero's taste for social commentary certainly isn't in Diary of the Dead, the latest instalment in his long-running walking corpse series." -- BBC Posted Mar 7, 2008	George A. Romero's Diary of the Dead (2008)	60%
2/5	" More sensational than spiritual, this blood-soaked take on the Stations of the Cross retells the Gospels as a horror movie. You can't help asking: where has all the love gone?" -- Channel 4 Film Posted Mar 5, 2008	The Passion of the Christ (2004)	50%
3/5	" Fun but instantly forgettable, this retro heist movie illuminates a long-forgotten British blag. Despite a smart set-up, its smash �n� grab raid on �70s nostalgia leaves little to dissect over a post-movie pint." -- Total Film Posted Feb 28, 2008	The Bank Job (2008)	78%
3/5	" Although he struggles to make the British-feeling production convince, UK helmer Tom Shankland gets the faux-Fincher nihilism just right." -- BBC Posted Feb 22, 2008	The Killing Gene (2008)	71%
2/5	" Less a war movie than a turkey shoot in a ketchup factory." -- BBC Posted Feb 22, 2008	Rambo (2008)	37%
4/5	" [A] deeply reverent, deeply affecting adaptation." -- BBC Posted Feb 5, 2008	The Dead (1988)	91%
4/5	" Letting the drama gradually unfold, Rossi Stuart proves an adept helmer and captures the anxieties of childhood brilliantly." -- BBC Posted Jan 24, 2008	Libero (2005)	100%
5/5	" With its sly wit, dark intelligence and tense action sequences this film re-establishes the Coens as two of American cinema's most talented directors. It's also the best adaptation of McCarthy's work to date and an unmissable crime movie." -- Channel 4 Film Posted Jan 18, 2008	No Country for Old Men (2007)	94%
2/5	" Fans deserve better." -- BBC Posted Jan 18, 2008	Aliens Vs. Predator: Requiem (2007)	14%
4/5	" An off-centre rom-com with unlikely stars, this indie drama is neither too funny nor too romantic in its balance of laughs and tenderness. The perfect date movie for middle-aged romantics (and we mean that as a compliment)." -- Channel 4 Film Posted Jan 11, 2008	Dan in Real Life (2007)	66%
4/5	" Both a neat comment on Britain's dilemma in the build-up to the impending war with Germany (to appease or not to appease?) and also a cracking piece of entertainment." -- BBC Posted Jan 11, 2008	The Lady Vanishes (1938)	96%
4/5	" Touching, tender and laugh-out-loud funny, this little rom-com will melt your heart then rebuild it afresh. It�s so warm and inviting, you�ll want to spend a week in its company. But you only get 99 minutes. Treasure them." -- Total Film Posted Jan 11, 2008	Dan in Real Life (2007)	66%
4/5	" No lavish costume drama, it's instead a theatrical dissection of the spiteful games lovers play." -- BBC Posted Dec 28, 2007	The Duchess of Langeais (2008)	68%
3.5/5	" A formally daring attempt to capture the rhythms of adolescence wrapped around a murder mystery, Paranoid Park continues Van Sant's fascination with American youth." -- Channel 4 Film Posted Dec 28, 2007	Paranoid Park (2008)	75%
2/5	" Enter The Dragon meets Shaolin Soccer meets Dodgeball � just with infinitely smaller balls. A camp turn from Christopher Walken astounds but it�ll be funnier if you wait for the DVD and lubricate it with a six-pack. Or three." -- Total Film Posted Dec 28, 2007	Balls of Fury (2007)	23%
3/5	" I Am Legend sees Smith deliver a surprisingly moving performance as he wanders empty New York streets going slowly ga-ga." -- BBC Posted Dec 18, 2007	I Am Legend (2007)	69%
3.5/5	" A grown-up thriller about morality and the consequences of choice, We Own The Night harks back to an earlier era. A cast of heavy-hitters give it all a solid, polished sheen." -- Channel 4 Film Posted Dec 14, 2007	We Own The Night (2007)	55%
3/5	" It's all too familiar for its own good, and isn't helped by the screenplay's meandering subplots about the twin sisters' past and their loves in the present." -- BBC Posted Dec 7, 2007	Kilometro 31 (2006)	71%
3/5	" No Christmas cracker but a likable holiday movie, This Christmas is full of seasonal cheer, some witty banter and a raft of enthusiastic performances from its high-spirited cast." -- Channel 4 Film Posted Nov 30, 2007	This Christmas (2007)	54%
2/5	" Somewhat ironically for a film about insomnia, 4:30 manages to send its audience to sleep. A lack of plot and an ill-judged belief in its own importance make it a disappointment for Tan fans." -- Channel 4 Film Posted Nov 23, 2007	4:30 (2007)	86%
3/5	" This unabashedly liberal documentary tries to redress the balance by giving the rest of America a wake up call: not all scary fundamentalists come strapped with explosives." -- BBC Posted Nov 23, 2007	Jesus Camp (2006)	88%
3/5	" A quirky first half of torture, starvation and, um, stinky farts gives way to crazed jungle fever as Dengler leads a great escape into the heart of darkness." -- BBC Posted Nov 23, 2007	Rescue Dawn (2007)	90%
3/5	" A chilling picture of coming global crisis fuelled by our lack of fuel." -- BBC Posted Nov 9, 2007	A Crude Awakening: The Oil Crash (2006)	79%
3/5	" Gloopy and outrageous, this schlock horror tribute is pure trash... in the best possible sense." -- BBC Posted Nov 9, 2007	Planet Terror (2007)	77%
3.5/5	" A timely tribute to the 12 men who landed on the moon during the 1960s and 1970s. The remastered, rediscovered documentary footage is incredible, although the absence of Neil Armstrong is disappointing." -- Channel 4 Film Posted Nov 2, 2007	In the Shadow of the Moon (2007)	94%
3/5	" It's deeply unsettling; just like a horror movie should be." -- BBC Posted Oct 30, 2007	Saw IV (2007)	19%
3/5	" Lagerfeld could be the fashion world's Nosferatu: gimlet eyes hidden behind shades as they appraise each new collection; monstrous in his egotism; and, despite his protestations otherwise, painfully lonely after selling his soul to haute couture." -- BBC Posted Oct 26, 2007	Lagerfeld Confidential (2007)	41%
	" The excessive strobe effects may trigger epileptic fits, but the movie itself will induce narcolepsy." -- thelondonpaper Posted Oct 19, 2007	The Seeker (2007)	13%
1/5	" Never work with children or animals. Unless you're a child or an animal, in which case, never work with Cuba Gooding Jnr." -- BBC Posted Oct 19, 2007	Daddy Day Camp (2007)	1%
