Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones (2002) 61% 5/5 “Lucas delights once again with an amazing collection of monsters and dodgy aliens, but it is in the marvellous set pieces that the film really blasts off.” – Times (UK) Apr 22, 2025 Full Review Beloved (1998) 72% “It's a noble tilt at Toni Morrison's complex Pulitzer Prize-winning novel. There are stunning period visuals and harrowing, sepia tinted flashbacks. But the film is overlong [and] frequently laboured.” – Times (UK) Feb 2, 2022 Full Review Real Women Have Curves (2002) 85% “Real Women Have Curves, Patricia Cardoso's tale of a Mexican girl torn between a sweatshop job and a place in college, is a sharp antidote to the dead-on-arrival teen fantasy.” – Times (UK) Sep 10, 2021 Full Review Love Actually (2003) 64% “Sit back, and gawp at Ideal Britain. Revel in the tipsy plot. And enjoy a film full of adult whimsy and adolescent whingeing.” – Times (UK) Nov 5, 2019 Full Review The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift (2006) 38% “The Fast and Furious: Tokyo Drift is another dismal chapter in a franchise that started promisingly enough with Rob Cohen's rebel-with-too-much-horse-power-but-lots-of-chicks.” – Times (UK) Mar 29, 2019 Full Review The Notebook (2004) 54% “The Notebook is a ghastly piece of oldie slush which is tediously orchestrated by Nick Cassavetes.” – Sunday Times (UK) Feb 2, 2019 Full Review Dreamcatcher (2003) 28% “Dreamcatcher is a horror, sci-fi fantasy, buddy movie, a military thriller, a mangled crate of X-Files, and a mass of half-baked clichés.” – Times (UK) Dec 7, 2018 Full Review Ignorant Fairies (2001) 74% “Le Fate Ignoranti is a clever stab at the twilight world of the heterosexual male but it doesn't twist the knife. The premise is quite delicious.” – Times (UK) Dec 7, 2018 Full Review Lilya 4-Ever (2002) 84% “After making such a brilliant splash with his first two films -- Show Me Love and Together -- the Swedish director Lukas Moodysson seems to dry up in Lilya 4-ever.” – Times (UK) Dec 7, 2018 Full Review Trapped (2002) 17% “Luis Mandoki's movie Trapped is one of the most inept hostage thrillers I've ever seen.” – Times (UK) Dec 6, 2018 Full Review The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King (2003) 94% “The sense of closure is exquisite, but I'm not sure I'm able to forgive Peter Jackson for the three years that he has taken to put it on the screen. The wait has been excruciating.” – Times (UK) Feb 27, 2018 Full Review The Dark Knight (2008) 94% “You will feel utterly numb after the screening of The Dark Knight. The film is bleak and brilliant.” – Times (UK) May 31, 2017 Full Review Shakespeare in Love (1998) 92% “There is plenty to be thrilled about.” – Times (UK) Feb 16, 2016 Full Review Finding Nemo (2003) 99% “The tropical pleasure is a beautifully imagined adventure that beguiles children and tickles adults.” – Times (UK) Jul 29, 2015 Full Review Blade: Trinity (2004) 24% “I'm a great fan of Blade, the Marvel Comics vampire hunter played by Wesley Snipes... But a third episode, Blade: Trinity, directed by David S. Goyer, is a blood fest too far.” – Times (UK) Jul 21, 2015 Full Review Gigli (2003) 6% “Mere words fail to express the awfulness of Martin Brest's Gigli.” – Times (UK) Jun 22, 2015 Full Review Million Dollar Baby (2004) 90% “I'd be amazed if Swank failed to punch her way to a serious prize after this feat; she is an extraordinary bundle of ferocity and ice.” – Times (UK) Feb 27, 2015 Full Review Chicago (2002) 87% “What makes this more than a film of a great stage show is the way that the action spills seamlessly from the stage sets into real life. Magic.” – Times (UK) Feb 25, 2015 Full Review Crash (2004) 73% 3/5 “The script is clever, the racial theme is worthy of Newsnight, and the editing just sublime.” – Times (UK) Feb 23, 2015 Full Review The Departed (2006) 91% 4/5 “Nicholson's unsavoury grin and seedy menace are a joy to behold.” – Times (UK) Jan 23, 2015 Full Review Merry Christmas (2005) 74% “The horror of the war, and the startling dignity of these mud-spattered soldiers, will doubtless thaw stony hearts. But the drama is as conventional as a ham sandwich.” – Times (UK) Dec 14, 2014 Full Review Hellboy II: The Golden Army (2008) 86% 3/5 “Hellboy II: The Golden Army has the technical brilliance of a Renaissance masterpiece and a brain the size of a pea.” – Times (UK) Dec 8, 2014 Full Review Shrek 2 (2004) 89% “All hail the angriest rebel since James Dean. All right, he's green, pot-bellied, and has the social graces of a slug. But in terms of attitude? Peerless.” – Times (UK) Dec 6, 2014 Full Review Saw (2004) 50% “James Wan's horror film Saw is full of demented twists and guilty-looking actors, but the scenario is cruel enough to make you squirm.” – Times (UK) Oct 27, 2014 Full Review The Last House on the Left (2009) 42% 2/5 “A dismal reminder of just how starved Hollywood studios are for good ideas.” – Times (UK) Jun 12, 2009 Full Review
