Martha Marcy May Marlene

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

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.

Hands up who knows what the Ozark Mountains look like? Well, you won't soon forget after watching this bleak thriller. Winter's Bone is the hot tip for awards success this year, and it's not hard to see why: you haven't seen a landscape so unwelcoming since No Country for Old Men or The Road. Oh yes, Debra Granik's woodlands are bleak. Bleak bleak bleak.

Yes, it's directed by Guy Ritchie, but we all know we're secretly looking forward to Sherlock Holmes. Reinventing the deerstalker detective in a London full of explosions, black magic and Robert Downey Jr., there's honestly no way it could look any more fun. Throw in Jude Law as Watson and Rachel McAdams as someone who occasionally takes her clothes off and it's a dead cert for silly entertainment. But now we have a new trailer to get us all excited once more.


You may have seen it on MTV the other day. Well, now it's here - clearly the better place to watch it. And, to go with the tasty new teaeser, Warner Bros. have even released 221B, an online adventure game. You can check that out over here. But before you do, head to our videos section for the third Holmes trailer, or read on for the sexy new poster.

Yes, we're getting a second Sherlock. This, before the first one's even come out yet. Warner Bros. must be banking on Guy Ritchie's re-conception of Conan Doyle's detective being a box office hit - quite likely given the presence of Jude Law and Robert Downey Jr. But the sequel's got extra star factor to it now, because according to The Hollywood Reporter, a certain someone just might be in it.


You may remember a while back those rumours of Brad Pitt appearing in Sherlock Holmes as Moriarty (see "Brad Pitt Is Not Moriarty"). Now, it seems, he IS Moriarty, but in Downey Jr.'s next outing. Of course, there are now rumours that he does turn up this Christmas, albeit in shadowy, non-Brad Pitt form.


Either way, Kieran and Michele Mulroney are making a pass at a script for the next one - no doubt destined for re-writing by the team of writers brought in for Holmes No. 1. Just don't expect it to be anything like Basil Rathbone's stuff. If anything, the sequel will be even stranger. For the moment, we can but drool over the trailer. Boxing Day can't come soon enough...

 
Director: Guy Ritchie
Cast: Robert Downey Jr, Jude Law
Certificate: TBC
Release Date: Boxing Day 2009

In a dynamic new portrayal of Arthur Conan Doyle’s most famous characters, Sherlock Holmes sends Holmes and his stalwart partner Watson on their latest challenge. Revealing fighting skills as lethal as his legendary intellect, Holmes will battle as never before to bring down a nemesis and unravel a deadly plot that could destroy the country. Helmed by Guy Ritchie, Robert Downey Jr. and Jude Law star as Holmes and Watson, with Rachel McAdams taking on the detective as Irene Adler - the only woman who has ever bested him. Feisty, funny and full of Downey Jr., Holmes is an elementary slice of Christmas entertainment.
