    The Box (2009)

    " Richard Kelly returns with a tense, unnerving and jumpy thriller. It loses focus towards the end, but Donnie Darko has just entered The Twilight Zone."

    Jetsam (2008)

    " Jetsam’s saddled with a score that’s as subtle as a pneumatic drill at 6am on a Sunday morning, but there’s enough here to ensure Welsford should get noticed."

    Public Enemies (2009)

    " This superstar crime thriller emerges as something surprising, fascinating and technically dazzling. Don’t expect a Hollywood movie. Expect a Michael Mann movie."

    Fifty Dead Men Walking (2009)

    " A well-meaning and inadvertently timely attempt to tackle the Troubles, whose thriller-toned accessibility occasionally trips over cine-clichés. Meanwhile, a confident, complex Sturgess makes his strongest impression yet."

    The Life Before Her Eyes (2008)

    " Part Elephant, part Jacob’s Ladder, moments of bruising power are dulled by overwrought symbolism and a baffling wrap-up."

    The Young Victoria (2009)

    " Rose-tinted it may be, but this portrait of Britain’s longest-serving monarch never drags. Blunt and Friend secure your sympathy as the mutually adoring V&A, while Vallée sleekly braids the personal with the parliamentary."

    Hellboy II: The Golden Army (2008)

    " A baby-step backwards after Pan’s Labyrinth, but a rung up from the original Hellboy: more laid-back, even more out-there. Ignore the shaky plot and gorge on the grand design as del Toro lets his imagination – and some classic creatures – off the leash."

    Leatherheads (2008)

    " Is it a romantic comedy? A sporting history lesson? A homage to Howard Hawks? It’s all three. Not the touchdown we expected after Good Night, And Good Luck, but still enough style, sophistication and movie-love to save Clooney from a kicking."

    August Rush (2007)

    " Packing every cliché, coincidence and contrivance known to man (well, Hollywood screenwriters) into one glossy, saccharine, syrupy package takes some doing; but Highmore’s open-faced charm makes Evan’s sappy story tolerable."

    Taxidermia (2009)

    " Curiosity seekers won’t be disappointed… just sickened."
