Hard-Boiled (1992) 92% 4/5 “Woo has elevated the action movie into the realm of art. Infinitely more exciting than a dozen Die Hards, action cinema doesn't come any better than this.” – Empire Magazine Jul 27, 2023 Full Review El Mariachi (1992) 91% 4/5 “Shamelessly derivative -- Mad Max, The Terminator, the Coen Brothers, you name it -- this, much like Sam Raimi's Evil Dead, has an exhilarating rawness that works for, rather than against it.” – Empire Magazine Sep 8, 2021 Full Review Home Alone 2: Lost in New York (1992) 35% 3/5 “This is, inevitably perhaps, not as funny as the original -- the law of diminishing returns applying here as with most sequels -- although even the most demanding of viewers should find something to their liking.” – Empire Magazine Jun 10, 2019 Full Review Wild Rose (2018) 92% 4/5 “A star is born? More like a supernova.” – Time Out Apr 9, 2019 Full Review Mars Attacks! (1996) 55% 4/5 “A giddily madcap, surreal, sardonic satire that sets out to be deliberately cheesy.” – Empire Magazine Dec 7, 2018 Full Review Slaughterhouse Rulez (2018) 38% 2/5 “Loud, brash, and almost entirely laugh-free.” – Time Out Oct 30, 2018 Full Review Raising Cain (1992) 63% “De Palma blurs the line between fantasy and reality with gleeful affrontery, creating a dazzling tapestry of visual cheats and narrative trickery which propels his scarcely credible characters and ludicrous plot through to its nervy conclusion.” – Empire Magazine Oct 8, 2018 Full Review The Secret of the Sword (1985) 60% “The amalgam of fairytale, sci-fi and Greek mythology is exciting.” – Time Out Oct 5, 2016 Full Review Problem Child 2 (1991) 7% 1/5 “Pointless, purile sequel to a not-outstanding film. Avoid.” – Empire Magazine Jun 5, 2013 Full Review Mac and Me (1988) 7% 1/5 “A mercenary display of product placement and a bad advertisment for filmmaking.” – Empire Magazine May 14, 2013 Full Review One False Move (1991) 93% 4/5 “Emotionally complex thriller with riveting performances.” – Empire Magazine May 6, 2013 Full Review Unknown (2011) 56% 2/5 “An unmemorable Euro-thriller that frustrates more than it thrills, squandering an attractive cast and inventive premise.” – Total Film Mar 2, 2011 Full Review Ironclad (2011) 43% 3/5 “A ripping yarn capably told, this cinematic history lesson may not be wholly factually sound, but scores brownie points for unflinching brutality and ruthless realism.” – Total Film Feb 24, 2011 Full Review The Ward (2010) 33% 3/5 “Neither a total return to form nor his worst, this is a middling shocker salvaged by Carpenter's class.” – Total Film Jan 24, 2011 Full Review Kick-Ass (2010) 78% 4/5 “It's all about tone -- dark enough to be anarchic, playful enough to amuse.” – Total Film Apr 14, 2010 Full Review The Road (2009) 74% 3/4 “A heartbreaking and powerful adaptation of Cormac McCarthy's Pulitzer Prize-winning novel.” – Premiere Magazine Nov 23, 2009 Full Review The Men Who Stare at Goats (2009) 51% 3/5 “This Coens-lite comedy squeezes every last drop of craziness from its source but is undone by a thin third act. McGregor's a good straight man, but it's Clooney's show.” – Total Film Nov 6, 2009 Full Review The Men Who Stare at Goats (2009) 51% 3/4 “This lively satire looks destined for future cult status.” – Premiere Magazine Nov 3, 2009 Full Review Capitalism: A Love Story (2009) 74% 3/4 “With the global economic meltdown affecting just about everybody, the film is pertinent, hugely entertaining, and, above all, timely.” – Premiere Magazine Sep 22, 2009 Full Review The Informant! (2009) 80% 3/4 “Bright, breezy, and downright goofy, this superbly captures the workings of Whitacre's highly imaginative mind and the outlandish nature of the crime.” – Premiere Magazine Sep 15, 2009 Full Review Body of Evidence (1992) 8% 2/5 “An erotic thriller that's strangely unerotic and devoid of thrills, this is, however, mercifully short at 100 minutes.” – Empire Magazine Jul 20, 2009 Full Review Outlander (2008) 37% 2/5 “This should have been a cracking genre piece - Vikings? Monsters? What's not to like? - even if Beowulf hadn't got there first. But despite the cool concept, it commits the cardinal sin of being a little too much on the dull side.” – Total Film Apr 24, 2009 Full Review The Girl Who Leapt Through Time (2006) 84% 3/5 “This charming, visually fertile film captures the conflicted emotions of first love and embarrassment of being a teen with real sensitivity.” – Total Film Sep 19, 2008 Full Review Triangle (2007) 53% 3/5 “To's stylishly choreographed, action-led finale wraps things up with a blackly humorous and suspenseful stand-off in an outdoor restaurant.” – Total Film Aug 29, 2008 Full Review Rec (2007) 90% 3/5 “Gripping, unsettling and truly horrific, [REC] is much more than the gimmick suggested by its title. Prepare to squirm, wince and wonder at how a potential Blair Witch knock-off is quite so grimy and engrossing. And don't eat dinner before you see it.” – Total Film Apr 11, 2008 Full Review
