Warner Bros are in trouble. Money trouble. And who better to save them then comic book heroes. Well, if they can save a baby from a burning building, who’s to say they can’t get Warner Bros out of a financial black hole?

Kick-Ass writer Mark Millar’s directorial debut Miracle Park is moving ahead, bringing the writer’s dark take on superheroes to his homeland of Scotland! It’s Trainspotting meets X-men! Though hopefully with fewer toilets…

Keanu Reeves has dropped hints about the possibility of a second sequel to Bill and Ted’s Excellent Adventure. This would be most triumphant.

In True Legend, the supremely talented martial arts choreographer Yuen Woo-ping has returned to the style which made his name with the 1978 hit Drunken Master. The film follows the story of Beggar Su as the adversity of his life leads him to develop a unique form of Wushu, but that’s not really important – all you’ll be interested in is the spectacular fights.

For decades, Fritz Lang’s expressionist sci-fi Metropolis has been considered an indisputable classic. This fact has not changed. The film, however, has. With its running time having been cut by a quarter shortly after its German premiere in 1927, the full version of Lang’s epic was long presumed lost, until it miraculously turned up in Argentina two years ago. Having been recut and restored, the version we see now is the closest audiences have been to Lang’s vision in over 80 years – and it’s just as astonishing as you might expect.

It’s the fourth installment in the Resident Evil franchise and IT’S IN 3D! Alice is back to kick-ass and not even the removal of her powers is going to get her to calm down. Ain’t nothing going to hold this girl down. Evil corporation, mneh. Zombies, puh-lease. The traitorous living, move over, girlfriend! Unfortunatley, even in the spirit of “GIRL POWER”, there is not much to this film aside from guns, the undead and women fighting the undead. With guns. Which I guess is pretty standard for a computer game.

Comic and “oh so controvertial” actor, Sacha Baron Cohen is all set to take on the role of the 80’s pop icon. Whhhy, I wail. But without wanting to cut my nose off to spite my face, I will give him the benefit of the doubt. Perhaps it’ll be a kind of magic.

Joaquin Phoenix – mentalist, or hoaxer? With documentary (or mockumentary?) I’m Still Here due to hit UK cinemas this weekend, director Casey Affleck is finally ready to come clean.

After years of being a leader in world of comedy (the Simpsons? Spinal Tap? Saturday Night Live?) Harry Shearer returns to our screens in a very different guise – as the director of searing political documentary The Big Uneasy. Would we be able to contain ourselves upon meeting him? We would soon find out…

The Runaways were the goddesses of the Riot Grrrl movement, and charting their extraordinary journey from suburban insignificance to global stardom was always going to be a challenge. Happily, this sensitively crafted and superbly cast film more than does justice to their extraordinary legacy.
