Laugh out loud funny in places, but never quite manages to reach the enjoyment value of the first one.

Enjoyable but silly in places, The International never quite gets away from the fact that it’s about the banking industry and yet still manages to entertain sufficiently to make watching it worthwhile.

Some amusing dialogue and interesting entanglements make this interpretation of a real bank robbery watchable, engaging and surprisingly emotional.

I don’t turn off many films before getting to the end, but Punisher: War Zone’s dialog and action was so dire and had so few redeeming features that I gave up before the end, judge it on that basis.

Decent production values, reasonable special effects and a better than average first half make Outlander worth watching despite being let down by the last 30 minutes.

This remake of the original classic goes through the motions but appears to have no soul, and if you can’t attach yourself to the female lead and her annoying kid you’re left wondering why you should care.

A lackluster and disappointing movie which feels more like a collection of one-off action sequences than a real story.

A weak script and terrible direction bring this franchise to its knees, Transporter 3 fails to deliver anything.

Twilight is targetted directly at a specific demographic, but even if you fall outside that it’s an inoffensive film with some better than expected acting and some shockingly bad ’special effects’ delivering an unmemorable but peaceful viewing experience.

An above average comedy with some engaging characters and just enough solid laughs to keep you going and Pegg holding the movie together.

Body of Lies is a reasonably good action-thriller with some strong performances and interesting context, let down by a soft-ending.

A fractured and unrealised sci-fi drama which results in a dissapointing and unsatisfying action viewing experience.

Zack and Miri is a touching and funny comedy with some true laugh out loud moments and a strong splattering of Kevin Smith’s trademark dialog.

A by-the-book action thriller with no twists or turns and a hero who at times stretches his credability.

Don’t let bad reviews fool you, Hancock is a pretty good movie with a quick-turn in the latter half which gives this mildly comic superhero action flick a nice edge.

Exceptional movie making and superb story telling make Wall-E a totally unique and memorable experience that is moving and funny and full of heart.

Much like a surfer who spends a long time waiting for the right wave, only to have it vanish beneath them just as they’re about to rise and finally reach the sky, Rocknrolla never gets a stable footing despite several attempts and misses the crest too often.

Burn After Reading is witty, well paced black comedy with some very surprising ‘oh my god’ moments and although the ending feels rushed it doesn’t detract too badly from the superb performances throughout.

Although Kung Fu Panda is funny, entertaining and has a lot of heart it falls short of being a real classic, thanks in part to what felt like a missing act in the second half.

A solid and thoroughly watchable action movie with the smallest of surprises and the greatest of loud engine revving noises.
