The International

admin — Tue, 06 Oct 2009 12:49:33 +0000

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.

Duplicity

Excellent chemistry between Owen and Roberts, combined with an interesting story, careful use of flashbacks, and some excellent supporting performances (Paul Giamatti is awesome) made this an enjoyable film (if maybe a little long) despite the critical backlash.

16 Blocks

Despite having a well trodden plot 16 Blocks delivers an exciting and entertaining 118 minutes filled with wise cracks, solid dialogue and decent performances.

The Bank Job

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

Taken

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

Clue

The frantic pace of this funny and endearing movie starts after the first murder and doesn’t let up until the different endings have been played out.
