"Annoyingly, it's a rich premise that offers all sorts of possibilities...yet McCormick doesn't appear to be bothered." -- Sky Movies
Posted Jun 6, 2008
 
Prom Night (2008)8%
/
 
"It's poignant, quietly life-affirming little story that doesn't need to shout. Lonesome Jim's good company." -- Sky Movies
Posted Apr 11, 2008
 
Lonesome Jim (2006)58%
/
 
"Steidle's documentary evidence - shot where no journalist can set foot - makes for grim viewing." -- Sky Movies
Posted Apr 11, 2008
 
The Devil Came On Horseback (2007)98%
/
 
"A comedy wilderness." -- Sky Movies
Posted Apr 11, 2008
 
Strange Wilderness (2008)0%
/
3/5
 
"By the final touchdown, there is enough to like and - let's face it - we'll always take time out for twinkly-eyed George." -- Sky Movies
Posted Apr 11, 2008
 
Leatherheads (2008)53%
/
4/5
 
"The final reel is real eyes-behind-your-fingers type stuff with the filmmakers cranking up the audience's apprehension to I-really-would-rather-be-somewhere-else levels." -- Sky Movies
Posted Apr 11, 2008
 
[Rec] (2007)92%
/
 
"Seasoned stars such as Loretta Devine and Regina Hall do their best...but it's an uphill struggle with a script even the good lord would rent asunder." -- Sky Movies
Posted Mar 28, 2008
 
First Sunday (2008)14%
/
 
"Drillbit more than succeeds as a superior screwball comedy." -- Sky Movies
Posted Mar 28, 2008
 
Drillbit Taylor (2008)26%
/
3/5
 
"There's no marks for originality and the dialogue doesn't actually fizz champagne-style but the comedy playing is solid with Heigl enjoying a late honeymoon period." -- Sky Movies
Posted Mar 28, 2008
 
27 Dresses (2008)40%
/
 
"The only highpoint in what amounts to little more than a cynical marketing ploy was that she didn't do a cover of her dad's Achy Breaky Heart." -- Sky Movies
Posted Mar 14, 2008
 
Hannah Montana & Miley Cyrus: Best of Both Worlds Concert (2008)75%
/
 
"Abrave film for De Palma, obviously deeply felt, but the final scene - a steady collage of real pictures of victims of the conflict - offer a more visceral pull than anything that has gone before." -- Sky Movies
Posted Mar 14, 2008
 
Redacted (2007)43%
/
 
"It charms - despite hitting the odd seam of schmaltz - and teenagers will find much to tempt them away from their X-Boxes and PSPs." -- Sky Movies
Posted Mar 7, 2008
 
Vantage Point (2008)36%
/
 
"Even rom-com's need a relatively believable premise but the idea that you can find yourself hitched as a result of a few clicks on your keyboard is really pushing it." -- Sky Movies
Posted Feb 28, 2008
 
The Accidental Husband (2008)0%
/
 
"Pokes fun of a particularly dark hue at those emotionally stunted netheads who are enjoying a Second Life when they haven't even had a first one." -- Sky Movies
Posted Feb 28, 2008
 
Untraceable (2008)15%
/
 
"It's watchable...but to some people so was Last of the Summer Wine." -- Sky Movies
Posted Feb 28, 2008
 
The Bank Job (2008)78%
/
3/5
 
"Lean and mean, this basically does for crocodiles what Open Water did for sharks, Snap it up." -- Sky Movies
Posted Feb 22, 2008
 
Black Water (2007)79%
/
3/5
 
"Wong Kar Wei brings a first-timer's vision of America - the lurid neons and flashing subway trains are beautifully captured - but any emotional heart, largely thanks to Lawrence Block's dull script - remains resolutely unexplored." -- Sky Movies
Posted Feb 22, 2008
 
My Blueberry Nights (2008)47%
/
4/5
 
"It's a happy pill in the shape of a cinema ticket." -- Sky Movies
Posted Feb 22, 2008
 
Be Kind Rewind (2008)67%
/
 
"A stunningly powerful indictment of the weakest in thrall to a corrupt system." -- Sky Movies
Posted Jan 24, 2008
 
The Italian (2007)91%
/
 
"By the end it's lost any edge and is as soft and unappealing as a geriatric incontinence pad." -- Sky Movies
Posted Jan 24, 2008
 
Man in the Chair (2007)50%
/
4/5
 
"The pleasures are small but intense and the spell cast in one of the most surprisingly moving films of the year is captivating." -- Sky Movies
Posted Jan 24, 2008
 
The Savages (2007)90%
/
3/5
 
"Veteran director Sidney Lumet (Serpico, Dog Day Afternoon) shows he's no slouch at 83 when it comes to crafting first-class thrillers with a pitch black core." -- Sky Movies
Posted Jan 11, 2008
 
Before the Devil Knows You're Dead (2007)88%
/
3/5
 
"Slick, sharp and a little sentimental." -- Sky Movies
Posted Jan 11, 2008
 
Charlie Wilson's War (2007)83%
/
2/5
 
"Nippers will love it (it did incredible opening weekend business in the States) but adults may find themselves idly dreaming of gin traps." -- Sky Movies
Posted Dec 21, 2007
 
Alvin and the Chipmunks (2007)24%
/
2/5
 
"Chromophobia, incidentally, is an irrational fear of colour. Someting we could have done with a bit more of." -- Sky Movies
Posted Dec 13, 2007
 
Chromophobia (2005)31%
/
3/5
 
"Enchanted? You will be." -- Sky Movies
Posted Dec 13, 2007
 
Enchanted (2007)94%
/
4/5
 
"Unlike shabby exploitation docu-dramas such as Bundy, this is an honest meditation on the warped assassin and his motives and assumes the tension of a thriller as the appointed time approaches." -- Sky Movies
Posted Dec 7, 2007
 
The Killing of John Lennon (2008)35%
/
4/5
 
"The opening six-minute shot of dawn breaking over a rural landscape is worth the price of admission alone. Stunning." -- Sky Movies
Posted Dec 7, 2007
 
Silent Night (2006)91%
/
4/5
 
"The opening six-minute shot of dawn breaking over a rural landscape is worth the price of admission alone. Stunning." -- Sky Movies
Posted Dec 7, 2007
 
You Kill Me (2007)79%
/
3/5
 
"It's an impressive undertaking by Branagh but a rather pointless one." -- Sky Movies
Posted Nov 29, 2007
 
The Magic Flute (2006)69%
/
1/5
 
"This is one of those flicks that attempts to appeal to adults at a nudge, nudge, wink, wink, more salacious level while keeping the kids happy. It never really works." -- Sky Movies
Posted Nov 29, 2007
 
Fred Claus (2007)22%
/
 
"Nicely shot but too wilfully obscure for many tastes, it's to Xiao Li Yuan's credit that he carries a movie whose unrequited love theme doesn't merit this length." -- Sky Movies
Posted Nov 23, 2007
 
4:30 (2007)86%
/
3/5
 
"For the better part of the journey this a bizarrely uplifting yarn - razor sharp, you might say." -- Sky Movies
Posted Nov 23, 2007
 
Wristcutters: A Love Story (2007)65%
/
4/5
 
"Filmakers Heidi Ewing and Rachel Grady don't bother with a polemical voiceover a la Michael Moore but skilfully stitch together the comments of the evangelicals themselves. It doesn't make for a pretty picture." -- Sky Movies
Posted Nov 23, 2007
 
Jesus Camp (2006)87%
/
4/5
 
"For fans of visceral, lean and taut cinema, this is an object lesson in power and economy." -- Sky Movies
Posted Nov 23, 2007
 
Rescue Dawn (2007)90%
/
2/5
 
"The film-makers ought to be reported to social services." -- Sky Movies
Posted Nov 23, 2007
 
August Rush (2007)37%
/
3/5
 
"Visually, there's little to quibble about - but to luxuriate in its full gory glory you'll have to head for a cinema, or preferably, a 3D Imax theatre. Waiting for the DVD is not an option." -- Sky Movies
Posted Nov 15, 2007
 
Beowulf (2007)70%
/
4/5
 
"It's a refreshing departure from formula and a thriller you won't easily forget." -- Sky Movies
Posted Nov 1, 2007
 
The Lookout (2007)87%
/
 
"As an exercise in preconception-shattering, it works reasonably well. But as the characters veer between petulance and intimacy and back again - often within the same verbal exchange – the situation never really rings true." -- Sky Movies
Posted Nov 1, 2007
 
Interview (2007)57%
/
3/5
 
"In comparison to recent anaemic vampire offerings, it does make your blood run cold - assuming you've got any left." -- Sky Movies
Posted Nov 1, 2007
 
30 Days of Night (2007)49%
/
 
"The truth remains that Lagerfeld's expertly cultured air of mystique is one of his unique selling points and he's unlikely to give up any family secrets to anyone with the clunking interview technique of Marconi." -- Sky Movies
Posted Oct 24, 2007
 
Lagerfeld Confidential (2007)41%
/
4/5
 
"The immigrant experience takes on a blacker-than-black hue in director David Cronenberg's masterful tale of Russian mafiosa in London." -- Sky Movies
Posted Oct 24, 2007
 
Eastern Promises (2007)88%
/
 
"Techine never lapses into morbid sentimentality and it's interesting for a film to put the horror of AIDs in the 1980s in the perspective of a viewpoint 20-odd years on." -- Sky Movies
Posted Oct 19, 2007
 
Witnesses (2003)90%
/
 
"The action sequences are handled well enough but the CGI isn't up to snuff in a tale that barely merits the retelling." -- Sky Movies
Posted Oct 19, 2007
 
The Last Legion (2007)17%
/
2/5
 
"At a time of fine teen comedies such as Mean Girls and Freaky Friday, the real mystery was why this was made at all." -- Sky Movies
Posted Oct 19, 2007
 
Nancy Drew (2007)48%
/
 
"Sensibly, this never takes sides…and it proves a chilling reminder of the dilemmas faced by those placed in an impossible situation." -- Sky Movies
Posted Oct 10, 2007
 
The Counterfeiters (2008)95%
/
1/5
 
"Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't but there's plenty of chuckles and chills along the way as Henry, Tucket and Experience face the threat of a couple of hundred sheep bright-eyed with bloodlust." -- Sky Movies
Posted Oct 10, 2007
 
Black Sheep (2007)71%
/
 
"All the ingredients come together to make a richly rewarding main course, seasoned with wit and wisdom yet never half-baked." -- Sky Movies
Posted Oct 10, 2007
 
Ratatouille (2007)95%
/
2/5
 
"You end up rather hoping that when this crew of Cupid's casualties ask for an Americano to go they mean just that." -- Sky Movies
Posted Oct 5, 2007
 
Feast of Love (2007)41%
/
 
"The big question you have to ask yourself is: do these dishonest work practices actually undermine the message he's trying get across? The answer is probably not… because Moore is already preaching to the converted." -- Sky Movies

Manufacturing Dissent (2007)52%
