Everybody's Fine (2009) |
Despite the title, nobody in this film is fine. But, if youâ(TM)re in the mood for a well-acted drama that will strum obstinately at those heartstrings, youâ(TM)ve got it. - Heat Magazine

Youth in Revolt (2009) |
A fresh, funny take on the classic coming-of-age tale, and a chance for Cera to show us what he's made of. - Heat Magazine

All About Steve (2009) |
It's baffling that some of our favourite actors would sign up for this slightly creepy, desperately unfunny twaddle. Don't encourage them by watching it. - Heat Magazine

Spread (2009) |
The promising beginning deteriorates into a baffling shambles, with each character changing their entire personality at least once. - Heat Magazine

The Stepfather (2009) |
Lazy, predictable and seriously lacking in shocks. - Heat Magazine

Jennifer's Body (2009) |
Funny, sexy, cool and destined to become a cult classic. - Heat Magazine

Cirque du Freak: The Vampire's Assistant (2009) |
Entertaining enough but, despite a sequel-set-up ending, this franchise will have to sharpen its fangs if it really wants to take on Twilight. - Heat Magazine

Dorian Gray (2009) |
Just like Dorian, it's all style and no substance. And valiant turns from Firth and co can't save this from being a melodramatic, overwrought mess. - Heat Magazine

I Love You, Beth Cooper (2009) |
We've seen it a million times before, and better. The situations are forced, the script is weak, the pace drags and, frankly, it just isn't funny enough. - Heat Magazine

Anything for Her (2008) |
A taut, sexy, French thriller as long as youre happy to accept the ludicrous premise. - Heat Magazine

Synecdoche, New York (2008) |
Like the play within the film, Synecdoche is bravely ambitious, with glimpses of Kaufman's genius. But it's also an indulgent slog that only the most diehard Kaufmanites will happily endure. - Heat Magazine

Sounds Like Teen Spirit (2008) |
The world could do with some feelgood fun at the moment, and this is utterly infectious - a total joy. - Heat Magazine

Two Lovers (2008) |
moving, candid study of love and choices. But, if you want escapism, you're probably better off with Marley & Me. - Heat Magazine

Rivals (2008) |
The setting is a Paris packed with tight leather jackets, big hair and foxy girls, and the action, sex and family drama make for an enjoyable ride. Unfortunately, the denouement is frustratingly abrupt. - Empire Magazine

Flawless (2007) |
There's little by way of thrills. Still, as a caper with a great cast and clever premise, Flawless works, despite its, um, flaws. - Empire Magazine

Steep (2007) |
If you're a fan of 'extreme skiing' (ie. hurling yourself down terrifyingly steep terrain with sticks on your feet), this film is your Holy Grail. - Empire Magazine

Jar City (2006) |

Elite Squad (2007) |
Despite the voiceover, Padilha has created a shocking insight into a world in which corrupt cops slug it out against drug dealers but, ultimately, nobody wins. - Empire Magazine

The Last Mistress (2007) |
Neither a good French period drama nor effective pornography, this is a real disappointment. - Empire Magazine

The Cotton Club (1984) |
The film's period settings and spectacular on-stage showbiz set-pieces are fabulous, its meandering script much less so. - Empire Magazine
