3.5 out of five for Tron: Legacy
Amazing looks, but essentially style over substance. See with low expectations and you'll be entertained.
-
4.0 out of five for Monsters
Really liked this. Felt like a more delicate handling of your average alien invasion story.
-
3.2 out of five for Octubre
A little slow, but just enough funny to be interesting.
-
4.0 out of five for Womb
Delicate, slow-paced film with a touch of sci-fi. Enjoyable if a little uncomfortable.
-
4.8 out of five for Black Swan
Really spectacular film. Brilliant actors all round, looks amazing & the super-fast pacing keeps it gripping thru-out.
-
2.0 out of five for The Light Thief
Visually quite appealing, but nothing happens. Tedious and dull. Nearly fell asleep.
-
3.7 out of five for Let Me In
Lost something of the charm of the original for me, but still really good. Good effects.
-
3.0 out of five for Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps
Not quite as gripping as it wanted to be, but quite interesting regardless.
-
3.0 out of five for Made In Dagenham
Enjoyable and interesting. Obviously, not the most surprising film ever, but quite uplifting.
-
3.9 out of five for Winter's Bone
Very engaging non-Hollywood-American story. Amazing actors. Needs less squirrel.
-
3.6 out of five for Cyrus
Not as funny or outrageous as expected, but very well timed and acted. Very watchable.
-
2.7 out of five for Certified Copy
It's a relatively interesting idea - shame it's just so dull, contrived and pretentious.
-
3.8 out of five for The Maid
Interesting slice-of-life about a middle-aged maid. Looks very simple but feels complex and engaging.
-
4.5 out of five for Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World
Story gets re-jiggled to fit the film, but it's amazing to look at and great, nerdy, fun. I <3 SP.
-
4.0 out of five for Mother
Korean films are never cheery. This one isn't either. It's got a good sense of humour though, even if it is dark.
-
4.3 out of five for The Illusionist
Sad little story. Brilliant animation. Plenty to love.
-
3.9 out of five for Down Terrace
Darkly funny British black-comedy. Very enjoyable.
-
3.5 out of five for Splice
Pretty decent. Great special effects and quite compelling. Not 100% sure I loved the ending.
-
3.9 out of five for Inception
Looks beautiful, great idea, super cast. Really liked it. A few rubbish conveniences, but otherwise an insta-classic.
-
2.0 out of five for Rec
3.5 A good second part to the first film. Doesn't mess about and gets on with the action, but the occult stuff gets a bit silly.
