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

Gone Girl

This is just an awesome movie with note-perfect acting from Pike. Gorgeous direction & a great score, loved it. 5/5

The World's End

I was far more interested in the movie it started as than what it became - a lost opportunity I think. 3/5

Barney's Version

Paul Giamatti is exquisite (as is Hoffman) in this romantic dramedy about life and love. Simply splendid. 4/5

Burning Palms

This is a dark, black, biting & disturbing "comedy" that straddles the line between interesting & repelling. I really don't know what to make of this one. 3/5

Made in Dagenham

This wonderfully acted drama sheds light on the equal pay movement in Britain in '68. Well done. 3.5/5

Surrogates

This sci-fi thriller is a decent, interesting popcorn flick that had the promise of substance but never delivered. 3/5
