The Incredible Burt Wonderstone
Delivering a firecracker of a comedic performance, Jim Carrey steals the show in this formulaic but warmly played studio comedy.

In The Fog
A dense and murky work that may test the patience of viewers, but proves quietly haunting.

Mama
Its scares are expertly crafted, but the story’s undermined by its loose grip on reality.

Goddess
A spirited musical that shifts nicely between camp moments and dramatic beats, but ultimately feels a little too squeaky clean.

Performance
The performances are all first-class, but they’re sadly undermined by unsure direction and a screenplay that’s a little pretentious.

War Witch
A truly haunting film that’s inventive in style and remains beautifully committed to the story of its resilient protagonist.

Le Skylab
A French charmer that rolls along to a deceptively loose and laid-back tone, one that’s punctuated by a handful of poignant moments.

Mt Zion
Its formulaic screenplay is undercooked and lags in places, and while it’s littered with upbeat moments, its good intentions aren’t enough to save it.

Oz: The Great And Powerful
A visually dazzling, wickedly humoured and richly characterised epic that has Sam Raimi’s magic touch all over it.

Great Expectations
One can’t help but question whether this adaptation was necessary, but it’s classy, faithful and beautifully digs into the story’s rich themes.

Broken City
It’s stylish, well-paced and entertaining, but ultimately can’t transcend its status as just another morality tale with all the familiar twists and turns.

Barbara
While it’s packed with atmosphere, and the performances and cinematography are first class, the carefully built tension slowly dissipates.
