The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus

Mindbending imagination adventure, which is actually better than it sounds. Has it's own fantasy charm in what proved to be Heath Ledger's last on screen adventure. Trippy.

3.5 stars

The Lovely Bones (2009)

Good visual imagery, but surprisingly little emotion to leave any lasting impression. Standout performance from Stanley Tucci, but doesn't rescue this from averageness.


3 stars

Splice (2009)

A film so so-so that I can't even dream up a glib review.. and that is the biggest crime with Splice.

Edge of Darkness (2010)

Not quite as edgy or as dark as hoped but still a fairly solid thriller that ticks most the boxes.

Janck 3.5 stars (Sept 2010)


Solid and enjoyable thriller that packs a punch and entertains throughout its runtime.

The Killer Inside Me (2010)

Dark and controversial, usually a recipe for success, but in this case leaves you wanting that little bit more.
