Martha Marcy May Marlene

Terrifying and beautiful, this might well be the best film of 2012.

Interview: James Watkins

The director of The Woman in Black and Eden Lake sits down and chats with us about horror, Daniel Radcliffe and 3D.

Review: Acts of Godfrey

84 minutes of rhyming couplets? It sounds well annoying but I actually loved it.

Review: The Descendants

Nice film, shame about the voiceover.

Tinker Tailor Whack-a-Mole

There's a mole at the top of The Circus. Can you bash its face in?

Review: Like Crazy

A superb anti-rom-com that breaks some cliches and obeys others, which only makes it more moving.

Review: Shame

A devastating, magnificent film that trades almost solely in sex – and yet looks right through it.

Review: Coriolanus

Like Olivier and Branagh before him, Fiennes makes Shakespeare as gripping as it ever was. Verily, Voldemort did good.

If Newsreaders Did Shakespeare...

Inspired by Jon Snow's role in Coriolanus, here are some other Shakespeare adaptations starring newsreaders.

Review: The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo

After Benjamin Button and The Social Network, this feels like Fincher back in Se7en territory. Grizzled, haunting and beautiful.

Woody at the BFI

As the BFI's season of Woody Allen films continues, we look back at some of the director's best (and worst) films.

The Artist

A feel-good treat, pure and simple. You’ll swoon, you’ll sigh, you’ll want to tap dance.

Good news for Sherlock Holmes fans - the non-deerstalkered detective will be returning to our screens a little sooner than expected. Yes, Joel Silver has informed the LA Times that things are moving very quickly on a sequel. No surprise, really, given the solid performance of Sherlock at the box office, holding a steady second place in the shadow of Avatar's 3-D domination.


But this means more than just Downey Jr dropping out of Cowboys and Aliens, because Guy Ritchie will probably have to leave Lobo - his violent adaptation of the titular DC bounty hunter - or at least put it on hold. Silver said: "I don't think he's going to do it now... The studio wants us and Guy to focus on making another Sherlock Holmes."


Seeing as Sherlock was the least Guy Ritchie movie Guy Ritchie has ever made, this could very well be good news for everyone. Except for Guy Ritchie fans, of course. But they can just go and watch RocknRolla again.
