Hide (2008) |
Every time you think you've got The Hide pegged, and marked it down as one of those small British films, it twists out of reach. A play adaptation that exceeds boundaries and defies expectations. - Film4

Confessions of a Shopaholic (2009) |
It's a shame eBay didn't get their hand in here, but then that would have spoiled almost two hours of light-hearted anti-capitalist sentiment from the producer of Top Gun. - Film4

Space Chimps (2008) |
