"Forget Guy Ritchie’s mockney morons, this is the real, chilling, deal." | |

The Accidental Husband (2008) |
|
"Even rom-com's need a relatively believable premise but the idea that you can find yourself hitched as a result of a few clicks on your keyboard is really pushing it." | |

|
Across the Universe (2007) |
|
"It's the sort of movie non-Fab Four fans may struggle to like, occupying a space somewhere below the inspired dynamics of Moulin Rouge but well above the dated dirge that was Rent." | |

Alice in the Cities |
|
"Don't be put off by the black and white and subtitles, this is a family film with intelligence, energy and charm to spare." | |

All About Eve (1950) |
|
"Apart from the monochrome photography, all that dates the film is the chain-smoking and the fact that these are theatre folk rather than movie stars (frequent in-jokes about the low art of Hollywood pepper the script)." | |

Alvin and the Chipmunks (2007) |
|
"Nippers will love it (it did incredible opening weekend business in the States) but adults may find themselves idly dreaming of gin traps." | |

The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford (2007) |
|
"Paced like a Terrence Malick or Stanley Kubrick film it will not appeal to everyone, but for those accustomed to using their eyes, ears and brains at the movies this is a magnificent experience." | |

Atonement (2007) |
|
"Keira Knightley and James McAvoy deliver the sort of performances that have got Oscar written all over them as the doomed lovers in director Joe Wright's sumptuous adaptation of Ian McEwan's dark novel." | |
