Rating T-Meter Title | Year Add Date
2.5/5 26% Hop (2011) " It's not brilliant, but you probably already guessed that; this is a film about a mythical rabbit who poops jellybeans, after all... " — SFX Magazine
Posted Sep 16, 2011
3/5 23% Conan the Barbarian (2011) " As a fantasy movie it hits all the right notes, dripping with guts, gore and familiar tropes; it's certainly not a film you have to concentrate on following. If that's your thing, you'll love it." — SFX Magazine
Posted Sep 16, 2011
2.5/5 32% I Am Number Four (2011) " A superpowered kid hiding out at a school? We've seen it in Smallville, Roswell, Twilight and a million other stories. There's nothing new to say here, and I Am Number Four proves it in spades. " — SFX Magazine
Posted Feb 19, 2011
1.5/5 46% Hereafter (2010) " Hereafter tries to do what Crash did but without the superficial gloss, the charm or actors who can actually act. The result is desperately, eye-achingly drab. " — SFX Magazine
Posted Jan 31, 2011
4.5/5 81% Panique au village (A Town Called Panic) (2009) " Chaotic, warped and impervious to logic ? a total treasure just waiting to be discovered." — SFX Magazine
Posted Oct 11, 2010
1/5 0% Space Chimps 2: Zartog Strikes Back (2010) " Features clunky, outdated CGI, a script so flat it's practically Holland and rubbish character design." — SFX Magazine
Posted Jun 1, 2010
2/5 16% The Tooth Fairy (2010) " Family-friendly schmaltz-by-numbers." — SFX Magazine
Posted May 28, 2010
3/5 77% Nanny McPhee Returns (2010) " Despite its predictability, it's still a rather lovely, gentle kiddie romp." — SFX Magazine
Posted Mar 29, 2010
3.5/5 49% Percy Jackson & the Olympians: The Lightning Thief (2010) " It's all jolly good fun, rattling along at a perfect pace with enough action setpieces and spectacle to keep both youngsters and adults happy." — SFX Magazine
Posted Feb 19, 2010
3/5 33% The Lovely Bones (2009) " "Somehow the depth of the novel has become nothing more than an exercise in producing a polished, beautiful-looking fantasy."" — SFX Magazine
Posted Feb 2, 2010
2.5/5 22% Planet 51 (2009) " When a film's best characters are rip-offs from other movies. you know you're in trouble." — SFX Magazine
Posted Dec 3, 2009
4.5/5 86% Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs (2009) " It's rare to find an animated film that hasn't come out of Pixar's talented hands which contains so much to gush over, but Cloudy With A Chance Of Meatballs is something you won't regret sinking your teeth into." — SFX Magazine
Posted Sep 18, 2009
3/5 30% Aliens in the Attic (2009) " There's nothing really new here: it's all sub-Home Alone nonsense." — SFX Magazine
Posted Aug 11, 2009
2.5/5 39% Inkheart (2009) " As far as movies based on books about books go, it's anything but a pageturner." — SFX Magazine
Posted May 12, 2009
4/5 72% Monsters vs. Aliens (2009) " The film lacks the soft, friendly edge of something like Monsters, Inc and sags a little after the first big fight, but it's gigantic fun nevertheless." — SFX Magazine
Posted Apr 3, 2009
3/5 69% I Am Legend (2007) " Though it fails to do justice to Matheson's novel, /I Am Legend/ isn't without merit, particularly in its stately, moody build-up. Unfortunately, the final act squanders the tension in favour of daft religious symbolism and silly CG zombies. Shame." — Total Film
Posted Dec 28, 2007
4/5 94% In the Shadow of the Moon (2007) " A bunch of old guys talking about the old days - but what old days. An absorbing doc from a filmmaker who knows a good story, and a handful of men who've lived the best story of all." — Total Film
