4/5 | 16% | I Don't Know How She Does It (2011) |

3/5 | 64% | Justin Bieber: Never Say Never (2011) |
What makes the movie bearable - if you are not a fan because if you are you will obviously love every second of it, especially those moments when Justin's hand seems to come out from the screen and draw you in - is the fascination of his actual story.‐ Daily Telegraph (UK)

78% | Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (2007) |
