Chi bi a.k.a. Red Cliff (2008)

This Chinese 3rd Century war epic allows John "Face Off" Woo to pack an action packed punch in tandem with sweeping scenic visuals and some serious cinematic grandstanding. Ambitious.


3.5 stars

Le fabuleux destin d'Amélie Poulain (2001) aka "Amélie"

Bolt (2008)

Disney (with no help from Pixar, surprisingly) deliver a thoroughly enjoyable dog adventure to entertain kids of all ages.


3.5 stars

Avatar (2009)

JANCK : Largely pedestrian, lets hope 3D doesn't replace a decent plot, acting and script hey?

The Reader (2008)

Solid post-war Germany drama directed by Steven Daldry (The Hours, Billy Elliot). In spite of mixed reviews, this more than holds its own, and to say this is another ''movie about the holocaust" would be misleading. Winslet won Oscar.


4 stars

Sunshine Cleaning (2008)

Nice indie drama which proves that crime does pay (well the crime scene clean-up anyway).
