I'm Still Here

Committed and convincing, I'm Still Here is a brave and unusual piece of cinema. Fascinating.

The Other Guys

There are flashes of brilliance in this frantic Ferrell vehicle. The Other Guys never shoots to kill, but it frequently finds your funny bone.

Tamara Drewe

Intelligently titillating, Tamara Drewe hides its smarts under a hedgerow of filth. Unassuming, undeniably fun.

Going the Distance

Drew and Justin make sparks fly in this natural, likeable movie. Unlike most rom-coms this year, Going the Distance is worth making the trip to see.

Cyrus

Mumblecore meets mainstream without making a masterpiece. Painful and heartfelt but rarely funny, Cyrus is good but it's no Greenberg.

On the Carpet: Going the Distance

We run amok at the premiere with Justin Long and Drew Barrymore...

The Runaways

A run-of-the-mill rock biopic elevated by its quick script and great cast. Forget mopey Bella: Kristen Stewart rocks.

The Last Exorcism

The Last Exorcism blends belief, doubt and humour to produce some seriously scary cinema. Until the dubious ending.

An Education: Cinema's Top Syllabus

With kids back to school and education funding cut, what's the best way to educate your child? Cinema.

The Switch

Ill-conceived but entertaining, the year's second sperm donor rom-com leaves no embarrassing stains.

Scott Pilgrim vs the World

Mature, childish and one of the most energetic things ever put on celluloid, Scott Pilgrim speaks to its audience. It says words like: Love. Life. Nintendo. And Canada.

A Link to the Past

Loved Scott Pilgrim's retro soundtrack? Here's Hollywood's best music, 8-bit Nintendo style.

"The mind is its own place, and in itself, Can make a heav’n of hell, a hell of heav’n." Swift the light turns darkest, and post-trailers, The action will appear, through your 3D glasses.


We all know how Milton's epic literary masterpiece Paradise Lost goes - Lucifer tries to overthrow heaven, then sells the rights to make a 3D action movie out of it. That's what Legendary Pictures are thinking. They've even brought on I, Robot director Alex Proyas to help them do it.


Adapted by Byron Willinger, Phillip de Blasi and finally Stuart Hazeldine, there was a Paradise movie being developed at Warner Bros. with The Day the Earth Stood Still's Scott Derrickson. But now that's been replaced with Warner's co-financed Proyas production, which will happen after the Dark City director has finished Dracula Year Zero with Sam Worthington.


It's a good thing they've at least got the Dark City director on board. After all, he knows a thing or two about constructing fantastical landscapes. And he last brought us Knowing, which had a suitably crackpot religious ending.


Legendary boss Thomas Tull is placing a lot of emphasis on this - expect aerial action sequences and lots of epic battles between Michael and Lucifer. In 3D. Because that's what Paradise Lost is all about folks. The 3D.
