The Game Plan (2007) |
"Watchable comedy that manages to overcome its formulaic plot and cliche-laden script, largely thanks to Johnson being such a likeable comic actor." |
Matthew Turner |
Splat 2/5 |
Gamer (2009) |
"The action sequences are disappointing, there's a distinct lack of wit or invention in the direction and it's also impossible to care about the characters when they're so thinly sketched." |

Garfield: A Tail of Two Kitties (2006) |
"A lazily plotted, disappointing sequel with very few laughs but Murray's comic performance ensures that it's just about watchable." |

Genova (2008) |

George A. Romero's Diary of the Dead (2008) |
"Disappointing zombie movie, let down by some appalling acting and a script that fails to do anything useful or interesting with its central set-up." |
Matthew Turner |
Tomato 3/5 |
George A. Romero's Land of the Dead (2005) |
"Romero's long-awaited zombie horror flick delivers lashings of gore, violent action sequences and big dollops of heavy-handed satire in equal measure." |

Get Rich or Die Tryin' (2005) |
"If it's a rap-related rags-to-riches flick you want, check out 8 Mile or Hustle & Flow, both of which are ten times better than this." |

"It's clear from the outset that quality is never going to be an option..." |
Matthew Turner |
Tomato 3/5 |
Ghost Town (2008) |
"Ghost Town is a watchable comedy with several good laughs, but Gervais can't pull off a convincing nice guy act, so the emotional climax falls flat." |
Matthew Turner |

Ghost World (2001) |
"Poignant, insightful, wryly humorous portrait of American teenage non-conformity -- a wonderful, distinctive film, with a great soundtrack and terrific performances from its three leads. One of the best films of the year." |

Goal! (2006) |
"Where Goal! really scores, however, is in the impressive football sequences, with shots from Premiership games cleverly spliced together with footage of the actors filmed in close-up." |
