    " The film has a cheeky comic streak that offsets all the streetwise grandstanding."

    31 North 62 East (2009)

    " Even John Rhys-Davies as the PM struggles to lend gravitas to the comically earnest dialogue and knee-jerk conspiracy theorising."

    Rumba (2008)

    " Dominique Abel and Fiona Gordon prove worthy heirs to the gangly genius of Jacques Tati in this surreal comic gem."

    Burma VJ (2009)

    " Shaky recordings, interspersed with reconstruction scenes at the VJ HQ, look surprisingly sharp and give Burma VJ an unforgettable and powerful immediacy."

    Sleep Furiously (2008)

    " It’s unusually tender and eccentric, and Koppel’s personal sadness at the passing of this way of life is palpable."

    The International (2009)

    " Leaving behind the aromatic fantasy of Perfume, Tom Tykwer weighs in with a tense and exhilarating entry into the spy genre. This is an espionage thriller well worth investing in."

    Import/Export (2009)

    " Yet his unerring eye for the absurdity of human behaviour and the rituals we invent for ourselves makes this a blackly humorous treat."

    Alexandra (2008)

    " Shot in shades of bleached-out khaki brown and augmented by a heart-rending orchestral score, it’s a unique and intensely moving elegy for wasted lives."

    Times and Winds (2008)

    " We’ve seen this kind of picturesque rural drama before, but director Reha Erdem still hews a rich poetry from the material. The story’s elegantly structured around the five daily calls-to-prayer given from a parapet with stunning views."

    Jimmy Carter Man From Plains (2007)

    " Jimmy Carter may not be the most memorable ex-White House resident, but his post-presidency record as a battler for humanitarian causes takes some beating."

    The Banishment (2007)

    " Lumbering and beautiful, Zvyagintsev leaves few doubts that we’re in the hands of a fledgling master: there’s lots of striking visuals to keep you from itching for the exit as the leisurely running time unspools."
