Posted Oct 3, 2013
2/5 50% Thanks For Sharing (2013) " The result plays like a dramatized self-help book: useful if you're in therapy but not much fun for the rest of us." — Daily Express
Posted Oct 3, 2013
4/5 96% Sunshine on Leith () " Like The Proclaimers' best known song the picture starts slowly but builds to a joyous conclusion that will convince you to jump on the next train to Scotland and expect glorious sunshine." — Daily Express
Posted Oct 3, 2013
5/5 91% Blue Jasmine (2013) " Allen has frequently mined the fripperies of the monied elite for light comic effect but here he delves deep creating a masterfully compelling drama that nevertheless is frequently extremely funny." — Daily Express
Posted Sep 26, 2013
4/5 80% Prisoners (2013) " A haunting narrative and moral maze." — Daily Express
Posted Sep 26, 2013
3/5 8% Runner Runner (2013) " The cast are excellent but the script reveals its hand too soon. There isn't surprise or suspense in the third act." — Daily Express
Posted Sep 26, 2013
2/5 31% Austenland (2013) " Not remotely believable, it plays like a TV comedy sketch painfully over-extended." — Daily Express
Posted Sep 26, 2013
1/5 14% R.I.P.D. (2013) " Sluggish and boring, it doesn't have an original bone in its dead body." — Daily Express
Posted Sep 19, 2013
3/5 44% The Call (2013) " Berry and Breslin make a good women-in-peril double act." — Daily Express
Posted Sep 19, 2013
3/5 91% In a World... (2013) " The plotting is a bit scattershot but it's quirky and good fun." — Daily Express
Posted Sep 12, 2013
3/5 79% 42 (2013) " Newcomer Chadwick Boseman is very likeable in the lead and has a nice rapport with Harrison Ford here having fun as the Dodgers' shrewd owner, Branch Rickey." — Daily Express
Posted Sep 12, 2013
3/5 50% White House Down (2013) " Tatum is very appealing, Foxx makes for a personable Obama-esque fantasy President and the strong supporting cast includes the estimable James Woods, Richard Jenkins and Maggie Gyllenhaal." — Daily Express
Posted Sep 12, 2013
5/5 88% Rush (2013) " The performances are outstanding. Hemsworth and Bruhl are perfectly cast and do awards-worthy work, especially Bruhl who has the more dramatic part." — Daily Express
Posted Sep 12, 2013
3/5 50% Jadoo () " Buoyant and beautifully shot the picture is a celebration of food and family life that adroitly sidesteps many cultural cliches." — Daily Express
Posted Sep 6, 2013

Posted Sep 6, 2013

Posted Aug 29, 2013
4/5 49% Pain & Gain (2013) " The performances are first class and help make you warm to the lunkheaded trio against your better judgement." — Daily Express
Posted Aug 29, 2013
2/5 85% The Way Way Back (2013) " The story manages to be both very familiar and somehow not quite believable, in part because the characters feel contrived." — Daily Express
Posted Aug 29, 2013
3/5 75% You're Next (2013) " It's very low budget but made with some flair." — Daily Express
Posted Aug 29, 2013
3/5 54% Lovelace (2013) " Seyfried is excellent, morphing from naive good-time girl to abused victim to, ultimately, empowered wife and mother." — Daily Express
Posted Aug 23, 2013
3/5 68% Elysium (2013) " It's great to watch an original blockbuster with some ideas in its head. It's just a pity, and a ironic, that for a film about humanity there's not more human interest." — Daily Express
Posted Aug 23, 2013
4/5 47% We're The Millers (2013) " It's consistently funny, the characters are a hoot and the anticipated family "bonding" is quite touching and doesn't interrupt the flow of big laughs." — Daily Express
Posted Aug 23, 2013
2/5 15% Top Cat:The Movie (UK) () " Young children may be entertained but this is routine and formulaic with few good wisecracks and bog-standard old-school animation." — Daily Express

Posted Aug 1, 2013
2/5 42% Red 2 (2013) " Plays like the sixth installment in a flogged-to-death franchise rather than an eager and energetic second." — Daily Express
Posted Aug 1, 2013
3/5 87% The Conjuring (2013) " There are some top-notch creepy moments and the picture is crafted with real care but the denouement is underwhelming and my palms never really sweated." — Daily Express
Posted Aug 1, 2013
2/5 40% Only God Forgives (2013) " It's stylishly shot but nasty, sickeningly violent and, above all, extremely dull." — Daily Express
Posted Aug 1, 2013
2/5 14% The Smurfs 2 (2013) " Young children should enjoy the special effects and slapstick but parents will mostly grimace and bear it." — Daily Express
Posted Aug 1, 2013
3/5 93% Frances Ha (2013) " A perky cinematic pick-me-up starring the endearing Greta Gerwig who co-wrote the screenplay with director Noah Baumbach, her boyfriend." — Daily Express
Posted Jul 25, 2013
4/5 98% Blackfish (2013) " Damning and disturbing viewing." — Daily Express
Posted Jul 25, 2013
3/5 69% The Wolverine (2013) " The Wolverine should please fans and has a good shot at winning over sceptics." — Daily Express

Posted Jul 17, 2013
3/5 73% Breathe In () " The plotting is a little too neat but the acting is first rate and Doremus side-steps obvious cliches in the unfolding attraction between older man and younger woman." — Daily Express
Posted Jul 17, 2013
3/5 57% The Frozen Ground (2013) " It doesn't break new ground but is tense, atmospheric and creepy." — Daily Express
Posted Jul 17, 2013
4/5 98% Wadjda (2013) " It's a beautifully simple, heartbreaking but inspiring tale that shows how the subjugation of women poisons society and souls." — Daily Express
Posted Jul 17, 2013

Posted Jul 4, 2013

Posted Jul 4, 2013
3/5 59% The Bling Ring (2013) " This may be a telling observation on today's lack of privacy but it doesn't make our teenage bandits very interesting or clever." — Daily Express
Posted Jul 4, 2013
3/5 97% The Act Of Killing (2013) " Joshua Oppenheimer's film leaves too many questions unanswered but it's a chilling demonstration of the banality of evil and an eye-opening portrait of a corrupt nation." — Daily Express
Posted Jun 27, 2013
3/5 84% This Is the End (2013) " The story becomes as scattershot and repetitive as the scatalogical gags. Best enjoyed under the influence." — Daily Express

Posted Jun 27, 2013
3/5 75% Despicable Me 2 (2013) " Despicable Me 2 should delight its Minion-like armies of small fans everywhere. Expect a long-running franchise." — Daily Express
Posted Jun 27, 2013

Posted Jun 20, 2013

Posted Jun 20, 2013
4/5 98% Before Midnight (2013) " The performances and dialogue are wonderfully naturalistic; a reminder that the best special effects are often the cheapest." — Daily Express
Posted Jun 20, 2013
2/5 67% World War Z (2013) " It's not dreadful, just inconsequential." — Daily Express
Posted Jun 20, 2013
