The Boat That Rocked

A film of two halves: one spent waiting to laugh, the other not laughing.

Monsters vs Aliens

Monsters! Aliens! Monsters! Awesome.

A Monster Smash

The ultimate showdown of ultimate destiny? You bet it is!

Knowing

It's a load of old hooey, but Knowing carries its concept with conviction; gripping and portentous, it's a baptism by fire for dubious cinemagoers.

I'm Brian and So's Me Wife!

Michael Sheen - Britain's most prolific fraudster. Is your identity safe?

The Damned United

Another character-driven masterpiece from Morgan and Michael. Damned good.

Duplicity

A fun, romantic, old-school caper. They caper here, they caper there. Sometimes, they caper so much their clothes fall off.

Lesbian Vampire Killers

Comedy sound effects and a sword shaped like a thingy? This is a textbook example of polishing a turd.

Marley and Me

Marley and Me's saccharine story is low on laughs and high on sugar. Bring a vat of tissues. And some insulin.

Watchmen

Zack "the visionary director of 300" Snyder's epic achievement is an awe-inspiring spectacle...

The Young Victoria

Glossy and gorgeous, Britain's longest-serving monarch makes for a winning romance. God save the Queen. And all that.

Gran Torino

Eastwood's star performance rescues this cliched script: forget Dirty Harry, this is racist Clint. And he's milking it for every last drop.

Hush

An energetic debut from a British director, Hush is a thrilling tale of cars, girls and posters that go up in toilets. Gripping stuff.

Bolt

Cute and lively, but lacking Pixar's spark: this is The Truman Show for the High School Musical generation.

Still panicky about Joaquin Phoenix's bearded retirement plan? Well, fear not, because hot on his heels comes Billy Bob Thornton, much-loved actor and full-time drummer. Appearing with his band, The Boxmasters, on Canadian Broadcasting Corporation radio, he was prickly, at best.


When host Jian Ghomeshi implied that music was a "hobby", Thornton proceeded to debunk the interview, mumbling non sequitirs and refusing to play ball: "How long ago did the band form?" "I don't what you mean by that". He even started talking about the magazine Famous Monsters of Movieland, which he read as a child. "What does that have to do with music?" "Music? No, it was a monster magazine."


Having made 8 albums himself, the 53 year old reacted badly to a reference to his Oscar-winning movie career, which Ghomeshi defended as being "just context". The group proceeded to perform an instrumental number without Billy Bob playing.


Here's the whole of the movie star's mood swing:

What an arse, no wonder his career has gone down the toilet.
