    Me and Orson Welles (2009)

    " If there are romantic comedy elements to what is one of the eclectic Linklater’s finest films yet, these are outweighed by a stellar character study."

    The Informant! (2009)

    " Only one role is fleshed out, and that’s Damon’s. With walrus ‘tache and a dazzling mix of the naive and the Machiavellian, his is, despite the movie’s lack of flair, one of the year’s stand-out performances."

    Thirst (2009)

    " While its most dazzling scenes recall David Cronenberg’s The Fly and Schrader’s Catpeople, it topples into self-parody in spells, as if John Waters was remaking In The Realm Of The Senses."

    Adventureland (2009)

    " Much like its anti-hero, Adventureland is at first too gauchely intelligent for its surroundings, then learns to merge the best of what it is and what it isn’t. Gentle is the new gross, it seems."

    500 Days of Summer (2009)

    " A sharp spin on the usual rom-com formulae, this is funny, sensitive and challenges the genre’s gender conventions."

    Mesrine: Killer Instinct (2009)

    " This atypically French director takes on the proud heritage of American gangster movies and, wickedly, trumps them. Mesrine, who was no stranger to the canon of gangster lore, or indeed to egomania, would approve."

    Mesrine: Part 2 - Public Enemy #1 (2009)

    " The second [part] throws in heart-stoppingly exciting blasts of Bullit and Papillon."

    Moon (2009)

    " Make no mistake: Jones is a uniquely exciting prospect, whose cerebral, creepy and riveting Moon carves out his own elevated flight path."

    Gigantic (2008)

    " Yet there’s an echo of Hal Ashby, or even Hal Hartley, in the subversion of easy truisms about relationships, and its primary note - mild anxiety - may make it a cult favourite."

    Synecdoche, New York (2008)

    " Despite flaws of intellectual hubris, this is no vanity botch-up like Southland Tales. Fairweather fans may flee towards sunnier pictures. But when it’s in the zone, it’s moving, radical and exhilarating."

    State of Play (2009)

    " It’s very successful, gripping from start to finish in the way that Michael Clayton almost but not quite did."

    Tyson (2009)

    " James Toback’s been close with Tyson since the 80s (he played in Toback’s Black And White), and this stab at redemption is subjective and sympathetic."

    The Damned United (2009)

    " Hooper’s film rattles along crisply, with the director mixing punchy tussles on and off the field."

    Revolutionary Road (2008)

    " While Yates’ story retains flecks of perceptiveness, this is as disappointing as the characters’ compromises."
