From Paris With Love

From Paris with Love is perfect popcorn fodder - dumb, diverting and surprisingly not dreadful.

Everybody's Fine

This cheesy remake of Stanno Tutti Bene makes Tornatore's soppy original look like The Godfather

The Crazies

Nowt special but The Crazies gives you good scares for your money. And a lot of Timothy Olyphant. He's good for your money too

Capitalism: A Love Story

A rousing call to arms, Capitalism: A Love Story shows Moore is still as polemic & provocative as ever

Solomon Kane

Solomon Kane is small in scale but large in ambition; what it lacks in originality it makes up for with bucket-loads of blood.

The Lovely Bones

With its syrupy score and saccharine script, The Lovely Bones is horribly bloated. It's like having a fat kid sit on your face for two and a half hours.

Crazy Heart

With a stellar, sincere starring role, Crazy Heart is a gentle and moving piece. Proof once and for all that Jeff Bridges makes anything brilliant. Even Country and Western music.

A Single Man

A Single Man matches its polished surface with a sorrowful and deep undercurrent. Simply gorgeous cinema.

Oscar Nominations

No Moon, no Road, no (500) Days of Summer. But we do have The Blind Side up for Best Picture. I blame Sandra Bullock. For everything.

Ponyo

Miyazaki is a wizard, and he uses the old magics – imagination, wonder and joy.

The Princess and the Frog

With fun music and an engaging cast, The Princess and the Frog regains Disney's soul after it was sold for CG farm animals & a shiny Mac

Alice in Wonderland Print E-mail
Written by Ivan Radford

Director: Tim Burton
Cast: Johnny Depp, Helena Bonham Carter, Mia Wasikowska, Alan Rickman, Crispin Glover, Stephen Fry, Michael Sheen
Certificate: PG
Trailer

Lewis Carroll's loopy classic gets a Tim Burton tinkering in this unfamiliar take on a family favourite. Alice (Wasikowska) is a girl on the brink of a marriage proposal - from a snobby idiot with red hair. Now 19, she's a strange creature, at odds with society. Convinced her half-forgotten childhood trip to Wonderland was all a dream, she soon falls back down the same rabbit hole to a very different place. This isn't Lewis Carroll's Wonderland. Oh no. This is Tim Burton's Underland.

Director: Atom Egoyan
Cast: Julianne Moore, Liam Neeson, Amanda Seyfried
Certificate: 15

We all do it. Get a little paranoid about our partner's promiscuity. And we all take the logical step of hiring a prostitute to seduce said spouse. Right? Well, that's what Catherine (Moore) does. Concerned about David (Neeson) and his flirty ways with women, she calls up Chloe (Seyfriend) - your friendly neighbourhood strumpet - and pays her to pick up her husband. Can you say mentally unbalanced? Catherine can.

Director: Pierre Morel
Cast: John Travolta, Jonathan Rhys Meyers
Certificate: 15
Trailers/Clips

"Every man has his vice. Mine is a royale with cheese." That's John Travolta there, in character as psycho secret agent Charlie Wax, referencing his earlier work in Pulp Fiction. It's either an audacious and brilliant in-joke, or it's just lazy. And depending on your view of that line, you'll pretty much think the same of the whole film. It's from the director of Taken, if that gives you a clue what to expect. And you wouldn't be far wrong. Except that this is far more entertaining.

Director: Breck Eisner
Cast: Timothy Olyphant
Certificate: 15
Trailers/Clips

You've got to feel sorry for Timothy Olyphant. If his evil plans aren't being thwarted by Bruce Willis, he's a mass-produced hitman with a barcode and no personality. Now, when he finally gets the chance to play a human lead - a good guy, no less - his town gets wiped out by a crazy virus. Literally, it makes people go crazy. Then kill people. The Crazies like killing people. And director Breck Eisner likes showing it.

Director: Michael Moore
Cast: Michael Moore
Certificate: TBC

He's back. 20 years after Roger and Me, Michael Moore returns to the world of corrupt corporate finance. Shambling around the stock exchange in his hat and coat, he's the people's Columbo, uncovering the cost of the government's rescue package for the American economy. Approaching brokers, teachers, priests and people, his question is simple: "what the fuck happened?" Capitalism: A Love Story is anything but.
