Andrei Tarkovsky is internationally recognised as one of history’s most stylistic and influential filmmakers. Nearly 25 years after his death, Artificial Eye pays tribute to the director with their release of The Andrei Tarkovsky Collection. This box-set might make your other DVDs seem inferiorly uncultured (depending on your level of pretentiousness of course) but if you appreciate the poetry of Tarkovsky’s Russian cinema this is indeed a culturally significant film collection worth investing in.

So we’re off to watch Kick Ass on Monday, and we reckon it’s only fair that we give you the low-down on what the critics are saying about it so far, before we give our own (infinitely superior) opinion.
