Dotted with emotional honesty and strong storytelling that you only find in truly special movies.

Judy Moody And The Not Bummer Summer
A wonderful, fast paced and warm-hearted film that is only slightly let down by a couple of poor adult characterisations.

Drive
One of this year’s most original, entertaining and frankly shocking American movies.

Acorazado
Clever, satirical premise let down due to its sitting on the fence conclusion.

George Harrison: Living In The Material World
Modest and leisurely, albeit exhaustive and insightful, this would have been even better with extended music sequences.
Uploaded October 19, 2011 15:36
TT3D: Closer To The Edge
A moving and exhilirating insight into what motivates people to risk lives in the pursuit of their passion.
Uploaded October 17, 2011 20:27
The Three Muskateers
Special effects and 3-D fail to add anything new to this radical, and unsuccessful shake-up of the classic story.
Uploaded October 17, 2011 14:45
Midnight In Paris
Woody Allen’s latest froth-fest is initially entertaining and enjoyable, but ultimately predictable and even patronising.
Uploaded October 17, 2011 14:43
Contagion
An intelligent, emotionally driven ensemble film that we have come to expect from Soderbergh.
Uploaded October 17, 2011 14:33
The Art Of Flight
Mesmerising in both the way that it’s shot and in what it depicts, this extreme adventure is well worth taking.

1911
Jackie Chan defies expectation and impresses as both co-director and star of this rousing and fascinating epic.
Uploaded October 13, 2011 17:39
Surviving Georgia
Driven by engaging lead performances and working from an honest but sweet script, this winds up a real charmer.
Uploaded October 10, 2011 16:28
The Cup
Driven by Stephen Curry’s brilliant lead performance, this deeply moving story is told in an accessible but powerful manner.
Uploaded October 10, 2011 16:23
Red State
A somewhat return to form for director Kevin Smith, this flawed but strangely compelling indie flick is refreshingly unpredictable.
Uploaded October 10, 2011 16:17
Take Shelter
An unsettling and multi-dimensional family drama driven by the always compelling Michael Shannon, who delivers another powerful turn.
