Zombieland (2009) 89% EDIT “Zombieland is an hilarious jaunt through a futuristic America ravaged by a contagion that has changed all but a lucky few into flesh-chomping predators.” – Liverpool Echo Sep 22, 2014 Full Review District 9 (2009) 90% EDIT “It's remarkable for a first-time feature film director to keep a tight rein on all these elements and meld them with such dynamism and style.” – Liverpool Echo Aug 25, 2014 Full Review Salmon Fishing in the Yemen (2011) 68% EDIT “Lasse Hallstrom's beautifully-shot but at times cloyingly sentimental rom-com.” – Liverpool Echo Apr 20, 2012 Full Review A Dangerous Method (2011) 78% EDIT “An artfully composed portrait of intellectual one-upmanship.” – Liverpool Echo Feb 17, 2012 Full Review Extremely Loud & Incredibly Close (2011) 44% EDIT “Daldry draws a memorable and believable performance from the youngster, who had never acted before but who has to carry the bulk of the film's narrative on his slender shoulders.” – Liverpool Echo Feb 17, 2012 Full Review Johnny English Reborn (2011) 40% EDIT “After this second assignment, Johnny's licence to thrill has been revoked.” – Liverpool Echo Oct 7, 2011 Full Review The Debt (2010) 77% EDIT “The Debt cranks up the tension and elegantly conceals plot twists by cutting back and forth between events in 1966 and 1997.” – Liverpool Echo Sep 30, 2011 Full Review Drive (2011) 93% EDIT “The tension is agonising... then rubber burns, the engine revs and we hold on tight. For the next 90 minutes, we don't let go.” – Liverpool Echo Sep 23, 2011 Full Review Crazy, Stupid, Love. (2011) 80% EDIT “A sophisticated romantic comedy boasting pithy dialogue and exemplary performances from a cast which explores the many winding paths to true love.” – Liverpool Echo Sep 23, 2011 Full Review Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy (2011) 84% EDIT “Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy is intelligent filmmaking of the highest calibre, distinguished by tour de force performances from the predominantly British cast.” – Liverpool Echo Sep 16, 2011 Full Review I Don't Know How She Does It (2011) 17% EDIT “The plot glides effortlessly from conflict to resolution, convincing us you can have your cake and eat it.” – Liverpool Echo Sep 16, 2011 Full Review Friends With Benefits (2011) 69% EDIT “Friends With Benefits almost gets away with the double standards because Justin Timberlake and Mila Kunis are such an attractive pairing.” – Liverpool Echo Sep 9, 2011 Full Review Jane Eyre (2011) 85% EDIT “Elegantly adapted for the screen by Moira Buffini, Jane Eyre condenses the source novel into two hours of yearning and regret.” – Liverpool Echo Sep 9, 2011 Full Review One Day (2011) 36% EDIT “Despite everything, it's an able adaptation capturing the spirit of the original novel, which fans will still enjoy.” – Liverpool Echo Aug 26, 2011 Full Review Final Destination 5 (2011) 64% EDIT “Approached for what it is - a series of over-the-top gruesome death scenes pieced together by an implausible plot - this might be the best Final Destination yet.” – Liverpool Echo Aug 26, 2011 Full Review The Inbetweeners Movie (2011) 53% EDIT “If you're a fan of the show then you're going to find a lot to enjoy on their overseas adventure.” – Liverpool Echo Aug 19, 2011 Full Review Cowboys & Aliens (2011) 44% EDIT “It does actually seem to work, giving audiences a healthy number of action pieces and a solid storyline that isn't as bonkers as it looks on paper - if you're willing to suspend a massive dollop of belief that is.” – Liverpool Echo Aug 19, 2011 Full Review The Smurfs (2011) 21% EDIT “Recycles the fish-out-of-water plot of Alvin and the Chipmunks and doesn't have any original ideas about what to do with the tiny characters once they are at large among us.” – Liverpool Echo Aug 12, 2011 Full Review Rise of the Planet of the Apes (2011) 82% EDIT “Takes advantage of the latest technological wizardry to deliver a thrilling action adventure that doesn't skimp on heartbreaking emotion.” – Liverpool Echo Aug 12, 2011 Full Review Super 8 (2011) 81% EDIT “Super 8 is a delightful nostalgia trip, recalling a bygone era when young protagonists embarked on amazing journeys and emerged from the melee with barely a scratch or bruise.” – Liverpool Echo Aug 5, 2011 Full Review Mr. Popper's Penguins (2011) 47% EDIT “A saccharine family-oriented comedy, which hammers home the central message about parental responsibility and love triumphing over adversity with all the tenderness of a nasty case of frostbite.” – Liverpool Echo Aug 5, 2011 Full Review Captain America: The First Avenger (2011) 80% EDIT “The movie proves a solid if not superb opening salvo for the weakling-turned-super soldier.” – Liverpool Echo Jul 28, 2011 Full Review Zookeeper (2011) 13% EDIT “Though Zookeeper doesn't really cast any lingering animal magic, it has enough laughs to keep family audiences engaged during the summer holidays.” – Liverpool Echo Jul 28, 2011 Full Review Horrid Henry: The Movie (2011) 9% EDIT “Oh dear, oh dear. Rarely has a film title been more fitting than this disappointing cinematic outing based on the mischievous character created by author Francesca Simon.” – Liverpool Echo Jul 28, 2011 Full Review Cars 2 (2011) 40% EDIT “Visuals look spectacular and action sequences take full advantage of the 3D format so you feel like you are burning rubber down winding roads at dizzying speed.” – Liverpool Echo Jul 22, 2011 Full Review
