Reviews 1 to 20 of 73

  1. 3.5 out of five for The Road

    Pretty brutal at times. Credible, bleak, scenery and style. Liked it. reviewed on Jan 22nd from Frances (753207782)

  2. 3.0 out of five for Daybreakers

    Entertaining, and OK concept. Would have benefited from more subtlety and less gimmicky exploding bodies. reviewed on Jan 11th from Frances (720098832)

  3. 3.2 out of five for Thirst

    Unique and reasonably unique vampire flick. Needed some focus. reviewed on Dec 31st, 2009 from Frances (692012166)

  4. 2.4 out of five for Unmade Beds

    Empty vessel of a film let down by the writing. Just didn't care about the characters. reviewed on Dec 31st, 2009 from Frances (692009523)

  5. 3.8 out of five for Fish Tank

    Good example of a gritty, if slightly predictable, British council estate story. reviewed on Dec 31st, 2009 from Frances (692007333)

  6. 3.0 out of five for Sherlock Holmes

    Emtertaining and not as bad as expected. Obvious setup for SH 2 reviewed on Dec 31st, 2009 from Frances (692004723)

  7. 3.5 out of five for Avatar

    Storyline is pretty straight-forward & the 3D is again a disappointment. Visually stunning though so still worth seeing. reviewed on Dec 18th, 2009 from Frances (658773284)

  8. 4.3 out of five for Where The Wild Things Are

    Wonderfully shot and love the style. Not a ton of story, but still very engaging. reviewed on Dec 17th, 2009 from Frances (656030608)

  9. 2.0 out of five for Paranormal Activity

    A lesson in ignoring hype. Build up & filler for 1 decent scene. Acting pretty terrible, too. reviewed on Nov 29th, 2009 from Frances (606968337)

  10. 4.5 out of five for A Serious Man

    Really good. No big names, but excellent slightly dark and cynical story that also manages to make you laugh. reviewed on Nov 24th, 2009 from Frances (588597707)

  11. 3.0 out of five for Coco Avant Chanel

    Lovely performance from Tautou as always, but the screen-play lacked and nothing really happens. reviewed on Nov 24th, 2009 from Frances (588595959)

  12. 2.8 out of five for Cold Souls

    Original concept, but didn't really deliver. reviewed on Nov 24th, 2009 from Frances (588594294)

  13. 2.9 out of five for The Men Who Stare At Goats

    Hilarious and interesting source material, but just not well used or pieced together. Clooney is good. reviewed on Nov 8th, 2009 from Frances (534123263)

  14. 4.0 out of five for An Education

    As promised, Carey Mulligan shines and it's worth going to see her alone. A really well told simple story. reviewed on Nov 2nd, 2009 from Frances (510378745)

  15. 3.0 out of five for 9

    Original style and a good concept, but unfortunately the lack of depth in charas and story left me a bit disappointed. reviewed on Oct 29th, 2009 from Frances (496591882)

  16. 3.8 out of five for Fantastic Mr Fox

    The style grows on you and I can't wait to hear a small child say "cluster cuss". Plot a bit too meandering. reviewed on Oct 26th, 2009 from Frances (487732087)

  17. 3.5 out of five for The Imaginarium Of Doctor Parnassus

    Very beautiful and creative film, but nothing to get blown away by. reviewed on Oct 20th, 2009 from Frances (472501437)

  18. 2.4 out of five for Adventureland

    Had the makings of a good comedy, but lacked the actual punchlines. Disappointing. reviewed on Oct 12th, 2009 from Frances (450317220)

  19. 4.6 out of five for Up

    Brilliant as ever. Great attention to detail and a charming, original, engaging story. reviewed on Oct 12th, 2009 from Frances (450316169)

  20. 2.0 out of five for Surrogates

    Reasonably entertaining 90min action film, but plot as shallow and holey as they come. reviewed on Oct 1st, 2009 from Frances (417315743)
