Home Invasion

When I saw that David Tennant had directed this thriller I got very interested. I reasoned since he was so accomplished as an actor that, as a director, he might also be very gifted. Sadly, this movie fell flat for me in a lot of ways. The acting was barely passable, particularly the young boy. The script was bland an uninspiring, and Tennant's direction was utterly ordinary. This was your basic thriller, nothing more, with no resolution at the end at all, which was a real shame for me. 2.5/5

What We Did on Our Holiday

This odd British comedy took a seriously dark turn half way through and lost me about then. However, the children's hilarious acting saved at least some of the film for me. Meh. 3/5

Secret Smile

Tennant is deliciously evil in this thriller with excellent writing - the only thing missing was better writing. 4/5

The Decoy Bride

This is a perfectly servicable rom-com - Tennant & MacDonald are quite lovely & no one behaves badly. Sweet. 3/5

Glorious 39

This period drama is well acted & intriguing in design but is far too slowly paced to really keep my interest. 3/5
