3/5
 
"Klapisch slyly uses vignettes and diversions to hide the fact that he has no perceivable endgame." -- Times [UK]
Posted Jul 25, 2008
 
Paris (2008)62%
/
4/5
 
"It's like prime era Mamet with relentless, unstoppable super-profane dialogue!" -- Little White Lies
Posted Apr 18, 2008
 
In Bruges (2008)80%
/
3/5
 
"The movie's absurdist humour and muted ambitions have paved a path for slipshod anarchy, and hinted at greater things to come from future Ferrell movies." -- Times [UK]
Posted Feb 29, 2008
 
Semi-Pro (2008)21%
/
4/5
 
"Despite roguish interventions from Von Trier himself (in voiceover, and on screen), the movie has more in common with Working Girl and Trading Places than anything from Europe's leading auteur. Which, it seems, is a lucky, liberating thing." -- Times [UK]
Posted Feb 29, 2008
 
The Boss of it All (2007)73%
/
3/5
 
"The film has inspirational messages about the rewards of multicultural integration, but its tacit approval of prostitution as a rewarding career choice seems a bit peculiar." -- Times [UK]
Posted Dec 28, 2007
 
Princesas (2006)74%
/
4/5
 
"The depiction of the eerily overgrown city is one of the first genuine and unobtrusive testaments to the groundbreaking power of computer-generated effects in years." -- Times [UK]
Posted Dec 28, 2007
 
I Am Legend (2007)69%
/
4/5
 
"It may not have you weeping in the aisles, but it will be with you for days after you see it." -- Times [UK]
Posted Nov 23, 2007
 
The Darjeeling Limited (2007)67%
/
3/5
 
"Writer-director Michel Spinosa, harnessing a powerhouse central performance from Carré, has managed to hit the ground between giddy Hollywood thriller and brooding arthouse character piece." -- Times [UK]
Posted Nov 15, 2007
 
Anna M. (2007)62%
/
4/5
 
"Effortlessly compelling and, at times, moving." -- Times [UK]
Posted Nov 15, 2007
 
Beowulf (2007)69%
/
3/5
 
"An informative and unashamedly apocalyptic documentary about the world’s obsession with oil that makes An Inconvenient Truth look positively chipper." -- Times [UK]
Posted Nov 9, 2007
 
A Crude Awakening: The Oil Crash (2006)79%
/
5/5
 
"Deserts, mountains, railroads, bears and a sad and lonely epiphany about the nature of human existence!" -- Little White Lies
Posted Nov 7, 2007
 
Into the Wild (2007)83%
/
4/5
 
"When the band and the film move in sweet simpatico they produce a few precious moments of transcendent grandeur." -- Times [UK]
Posted Nov 2, 2007
 
Heima: A Film by Sigur Ros (2007)100%
/
3/5
 
"The film describes emotional and moral rehabilitation in the face of extreme danger." -- Times [UK]
Posted Nov 2, 2007
 
The Lookout (2007)87%
/
3/5
 
"You probably won’t find a more comprehensive document of space exploration on film." -- Times [UK]
Posted Nov 2, 2007
 
In the Shadow of the Moon (2007)94%
/
4/5
 
"They don't make them like that anymore. But, hang on, they just did!" -- Little White Lies
Posted Sep 14, 2007
 
3:10 to Yuma (2007)89%
/
4/5
 
"Even if by the closing act the movie has begun to feel a bit preposterous (enter the giant sea storm) and the resolution a bit saccharine, that’s a small price to pay for a movie that’s trying hard to reinvent horror the old-fashioned way." -- Times [UK]
Posted Aug 31, 2007
 
1408 (2007)78%
/
4/5
 
"The news that the 38-year-old gamine has not only directed Two Days in Paris but produced, written, edited, written the music for and starred in it might be slightly terrifying to all but Delpy obsessives. But it’s great." -- Times [UK]
Posted Aug 31, 2007
 
2 Days In Paris (2007)87%
/
4/5
 
"Devised by its star Christopher Lee, director Robin Hardy and writer Anthony Shaffer as a meditation on the rise of New Age spiritualism, the movie is now, of course, gleefully camp and a tad reactionary." -- Times [UK]
Posted Aug 24, 2007
 
The Wicker Man (1973)90%
/
3/5
 
"Twee, but you can’t help but get involved." -- Times [UK]
Posted Aug 3, 2007
 
Brief Encounter (1946)82%
/
3/5
 
"Funny, clever and at times even hilarious... But sadly, it’s also a minor movie and never more inspiring than the sum of its admittedly witty parts." -- Times [UK]
Posted Jul 25, 2007
 
The Simpsons Movie (2007)89%
/
3/5
 
"The movie seems at times so impressed by its own allegory that it lessens the human drama running beneath it." -- Times [UK]
Posted Jun 15, 2007
 
Grow Your Own (2007)57%
/
3/5
 
"At last! A comic-book block-buster that doesn’t feel the need to justify its own existence with ponderous philosophical subtext and bloated running times." -- Times [UK]
Posted Jun 13, 2007
 
The Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer (2007)35%
/
5/5
 
"That Jackson’s King Kong upgrades the now hammy original with wit, heart and humour is a pleasant surprise. That it does so by reinventing the action blockbuster, in form and emotional impact, is nothing less than an act of cinematic alchemy." -- Times [UK]
Posted Dec 4, 2005
 
King Kong (2005)84%
/
 
"Better than we might expect, but in the end it's simply a noble addition to the lower ranks of thoughtful teen comedies." -- Sight and Sound
Posted Mar 5, 2002
 
American Pie (1999)60%
