  • Wanderlust

    Jennifer Aniston gets her tits out again in this potentially-funny-but-not-quite comedy. Oh, and you don’t actually get to see her tits, so there really isn’t altogether that much to see here.


  • Your Sister’s Sister

    The perfect selection to get the 2012 Glasgow Film Festival off to a strong start, Lynn Shelton’s Your Sister’s Sister is a warm hearted treat. The story of three unhappy individuals attempting to rediscover themselves in a remote island bungalow, the film takes the potential makings of melodrama and uses them to craft something unexpectedly enjoyable. Fuelled by consistently excellent dialogue and anchored by a thoroughly likeable leading trio, it should leave even the cynical feeling warm and fuzzy inside.


  • The Sniper

    It’s a sniper showdown! Except that the characters are so one-dimensional that they may as well be shooting cardboard cut-outs at a shooting range.


  • Project X

    Combine a found-footage film style with a high-school party film and what do you get? The craziest, most destructive house party ever seen in cinema. It’s all a bit pointless, but it’s still pretty good fun.


  • Love on a Pillow

    Interesting more as a window onto 60’s Paris and the spectacle that was Brigitte Bardot than as a piece of film, Love on a Pillow is unlikely to appeal to many who are just hoping for a decent movie.


  • Special Forces

    Eventually Special Forces turns into a damn good survival thriller set in a beautifully captured Middle Eastern landscape. It’s just a shame you have to sit through an hour of numb, generic action to get there.



  • The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel

    A who’s who of pensionable British talent is shipped off to the colonies for The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel, a charming comedy which makes full use of its intoxicating setting and first-rate cast. Ever wished Love Actually had more curry and jokes about hip replacements?


  • X: Night Of Vengeance

    Ever wondered what it would feel like to be told after the event that your lap-dancer has crabs? Wonder no more – this exploitation thriller come ho-mance will take you through it step by sordid step.


  • La Grande Illusion

    StudioCanal are re-releasing Jean Renoir’s finest hour back into cinemas, in honour of it’s 75th birthday. Do yourself a huge favour and go; this comic gem is as relevant as it’s ever been.
