Zoolander 2

Really, really, ridiculously disappointing.

The Assassin

There are martial arts movies and there are martial arts movies. The Assassin isn't either.

Batman v Superman

A bold, mature exploration of myths and epics - followed by a two-hour mess.

Watchmen Print E-mail

Director: Zack Snyder
Cast: Jackie Earle Haley, Jeffrey Dean Morgan, Billy Crudup, Patrick Wilson, Malin Akerman, Matthew Goode
Certficate: 18 

First things first: it's not a cock-up. Not a complete cock-up, at least. In bringing Alan Moore's unfilmable graphic novel to the screen, there were always going to be glitches. But where to start with such an amazing, epic project? Watchmen's basic premise is this: it is 1985. Nixon is still in power. The USSR and America are on the brink of war. Both have nuclear weapons. The world is minutes away from Doomsday.

Public Enemies Print E-mail
Director: Michael Mann
Cast: Johnny Depp, Christian Bale, Marion Cotillard
Certificate: 15
Release Date: Wednesday 1st July

Depression-era outlaw John Dillinger (Depp) robs banks. As J Edgar Hoover makes him America's first Public Enemy Number One, it seems only a matter of time before the FBI's top agent, Melvin Purvis (Bale), stops him. And with Billie (Marion Cotillard) on Dillinger's arm, a cast like this is guaranteed to generate a lot of Heat.

The Young Victoria Print E-mail
Written by Ivan Radford   
Thursday, 05 March 2009 10:00
Director: Jean-Marc Vallée
Cast: Emily Blunt, Rupert Friend, Paul Bettany, Miranda Richardson
Certificate: PG

"I feel sure that no girl would go to the altar if she knew all." Luckily for us, she doesn't yet: at the age of 18, when Victoria (Blunt) became Queen, she was as green as Emerald City's bottle recycling plant. Pushed and pulled, hither and thither, she was but a dainty pawn in the game of chess. Deary me, how frightful. But then one day along came Prince Albert (Friend), a man who could help the young Victoria to overcome her manipulative mother (Richardson) and the other plotters around her - notably the attractive PM, Lord Melbourne (Bettany), and her Uncle Leopold. Huzzah for Britain! And, er, Germany.

The International Print E-mail

Director: Tom Tykwer
Cast: Clive Owen, Naomi Watts
Certificate: 15

Banks are evil. That's the message behind Tom Tykwer's tense thriller. But the most of evil of all the banks? Why, that be those at the IBBC (International Bank of Business and Credit), specifically Jonas Skarssen (Thomsen) and Wilhelm Wexler (Mueller-Stahl). One’s German, the other Danish – even their names sound evil.

Director: Gerald McMorrow
Cast: Ryan Philippe, Eva Green, Sam Riley, Bernard Hill
Certificate: 15

“If you believe in something strong enough, who’s to say if it’s real or not?” That’s Preest (Philippe) on religion, life and the very world of Meanwhile City, a dystopian metropolis where there is no divide between the state and the church.  In a society of believers, Preest is the only atheist, a vigilante hell-bent on hunting down his nemesis, The Individual.

To paraphrase someone or other, I may not know about fashion but I know what I like, and there was some weird sh*t at this year’s Oscars. But the weird stuff was a welcome relief from the mediocre and downright dull. And there were some good dresses too…

 In case you missed the opening song and dance number, which was hysterical, here it is! Although it'll probably be taken down by Mr Oscar quite sharpish...

Relive the laughter, the tears and the golden balding goodness of this year's Academy Awards ceremony, all through the medium of photography. Take a look at the crazy frogs, pumped up Brits, and even the love affair of the decade: Frost/Nixon. Sort of.
