    2012 (2009)

    " Each CGI blow-out feels progressively more synthetic and wearing."

    Surrogates (2009)

    " Wasting the chance to be a great, resonant SF metaphor, Surrogates ultimately proves as bland and empty as its pretty mechanical protagonists."

    Dorian Gray (2010)

    " A sturdy piece of heritage horror, as tasteful and handsome as any Brit movie with bustles and frock-coats on its agenda."

    District 9 (2009)

    " While the viral campaign and mockumentary style primed us for something in the vein of Cloverfield, District 9 ultimately proves to be in a much older tradition. This is pure body horror in the lineage of Alien, The Thing and The Fly."

    Moon (2009)

    " Duncan Jones's intelligent, hugely moving debut deftly resurrects a mutinously old-fashioned style of SF."

    Danger: Diabolik (1968)

    " Yes, this is an exercise in consummate cool -- the story itself is negligible, the characters blanks -- but hey, a triumph of style over substance is still a triumph."

    The Spirit (2008)

    " No amount of flash can camouflage the career-low performances, the scaffolding where characterisation should be, the pitiful cod '40s dialogue, the monstrously fumbled comedy."

    X-Men Origins: Wolverine (2009)

    " We’re soon mired in a predictable tale of revenge, an escalating series of empty tragedies occurring to half-sketched characters that ultimately packs all the emotional resonance of a night on the Xbox."

    Watchmen (2009)

    " It’s not a bad film. It’s actually coldly, technically brilliant. And it honours Moore and Gibbons only too well. But it’s monumental and slab-like, an exercise in cinematic taxidermy, in need of a lightning strike to animate its parts."

    The Curious Case of Benjamin Button (2008)

    " This is a kindly, sweet-hearted film, filled with some truly touching stuff about impermanence, love and loss. But at a languorous 165 minutes it’s old before its time."
