Wake Wood

Rooted in folk horror traditions, Wake Wood is ex-tree-mely good stuff. Stump up the cash to see it now.

Chalet Girl

With sassy performances and solid on-slope action, Chalet Girl is gnarly stuff. Brrridget Jones? Brrrilliant.

Submarine

Quality naval gazing cinema.

Match Point: Woody Allen and Arsenal

The only thing worse than being an Arsenal fan is a being a Woody Allen fan.

Hall Pass

There is one joke that will make you smile. It occurs during the end credits.

Rango

This fantastic existential Western is a veritable Sergio Chameleone.

Got breasts? Need cash? Read Pussy Galore's guide to being a Bond Girl.

Age of the Dragons

Who knew dragons could be rubbish? This should be B-Movie gold. It's A-grade bollocks.

Cinema's Best Submarines

Richard Ayoade's coming-of-age tale takes its place alongside cinema's great submarines. Here are five of them...

Unknown

I love Liam Neeson killing people almost as much as he does.

Ironclad

Blood, guts and James Purefoy's sword - this is The Two Towers on a budget. Helm's Cheap? Hell yes.

Rango has reached the top of the UK Box Office after a lukewarm week that saw no-one make very much money. But don't worry: Submarine didn't sink, even if it did surface in 12th place. More on that later.


Dreamworks' animated Western took the number one spot from Battle: Los Angeles, dropping 32% down to £1.05m. That's not a lot for a chart-topper, but it's got a healthy £5m running total now, which it's clocked up outside of half term and without 3D uplifts.


It's also the only film to take more than £1 million this week, as it doesn't look like many people went to the pictures over the weekend: Rango's £500k drop is more than most of the new releases made in their first week.


Chalet Girl sloped in at number four (the highest of the debuts) with an alright £677k. Taking into account the usually reliable demographic of teenage girls, though, it's a bit of a downhill run for the rather excellent rom-com (that's right: it's excellent). Still, its Wednesday-Thursday previews helped it jump over The Lincoln Lawyer, which came in fifth with £571k.


The week's other popular release was Anuvahood, which had a solid opening, taking £536k from around 149 cinemas. That's an average of £3,600 per screen, the best of the UK Top Ten, which not only beats Felicity Jones and Matthew McConaughey but also makes it look bare easy, blud, you get me? Regardless of negative reviews and the limited print run, the audience for the gangsta comedy clearly liked the film - even more than I liked using the word 'blud' in that last sentence.
