Chronicle
Let down by its illogical “found footage” approach, this remains an impressively compelling ride, which has more in line with classic storytelling than current fads.
Man On A Ledge
While Worthington doesn’t quite match the talent of his top-notch co-stars, this admittedly implausible but impressively dynamic thriller is exciting stuff.
The Artist
Beautifully made, surprisingly fresh, and there’s no denying its charm, but ultimately, it’s a slight case of style over substance.
Martha Marcy May Marlene
Driven by Elizabeth Olsen’s mesmerising lead performance, this languid and unsettling story buries deep into your mind
