4.0 out of five for Cairo Time
Really quite tender tale of lingering love set in Egypt. One for the mums.

4.0 out of five for Road, Movie
Great tale of a young guy who drives an old truck across India, discovering film, pain and passion. Untypical Bollywood.

5.0 out of five for The Time That Remains
A deeply personal account of the israeli occupation of palestine. Dark but punctuated by lol comedy. Wonderful.

4.0 out of five for The Mummy
Not a horror film at all but a complex tale of guilt, remorse and the torment of secrets. An Egyptian arthouse masterpiece.

A really touching and uplifting documentary of two ballet dancers trying to rise out of the favelas in Rio.

1.0 out of five for Star Trek
This was simply terrible - it started really well and then was amazingly boring and lacked any sort of tension. DULL.

4.0 out of five for Coraline
Beautiful beautiful to behold - really quite scary and really moving. Sometimes the pace flagged but overall a joy.

Best gig ever.

4.0 out of five for Watchmen
Deeply flawed - neither pandering to the fanboy or the normal punter - but still really good and worth seeing.

2.0 out of five for Vicky Cristina Barcelona
Penelope Cruz is smoking hot and mental, but the film is just so contrived and cliched. Woody please stop.

4.0 out of five for Happy-go-lucky
Wonderful little character piece - Totally unexpected and I think a bit overlooked.

2.0 out of five for Rachel Getting Married
Nice performances but it is soooo badly edited it makes you actually shout at the film to stop. I kid you not.

2.0 out of five for Frozen River
At first the film draws you into this bleak story but the ultimately it is overlong and full of unsympathetic characters

4.0 out of five for The Good, The Bad And The Weird
A shot of adrenaline into your eyeballs that just doesn't let up. Best film of the year.

1.0 out of five for The Reader
Walk out before the last 10 minutes as this film is a subtle, powerful insight into the horrors of war. They blew it.
