The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies (2014)
59%
4/5
“While it's not up there with his Tolkien cycle's best, this is a fitting end (or should that be middle?) to Jackson's saga, one that manages to mix blockbuster spectacle with some intimate, tender character moments.” –

“That it all makes sense and is up there with the best X-movies is actually quite uncanny.” –

The LEGO Movie (2014)
96%
4/5
“If it sounds like a glorified toy commercial, well, there's no denying it is. But it's an advert packed with invention, humour and charm - the kind you'd skip through 온라인카지노추천 programmes to watch.” –

The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug (2013)

4.5/5
“Though only eight minutes shorter than its predecessor, it's an altogether leaner beast that rarely pauses for breath over the course of more than two and a half hours.” –

Ender's Game (2013)
63%
3/5
“Successfully translates most of the book's more pertinent themes to the screen, while making enough storytelling fumbles to hint why it was considered unfilmable for nearly three decades.” –

Elysium (2013)
64%
3.5/5
“The fact that Elysium comes close to greatness - classichood always feeling tantalisingly within reach - only makes its failings more frustrating.” –

Frankenweenie (2012)

2.5/5
“Frankenweenie's biggest crime is that it's a comedy that isn't funny. There's no zip to the script, few jokes that stick in the mind.” –

Super 8 (2011)

5/5
“For big kids, a chance to relive the classic films that forged their love of sci-fi. For the kids of today, it's a film they'll want to show their kids another 30 years down the line.” –

Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides (2011)

2/5
“Jack Sparrow really has become a parody of his former self. He may get some decent gags and Depp still plays him with admirable relish, but he's simply going through the motions.” –

3.5/5
“Despite a rollicking opening half hour that leaves you wondering whether you're about to watch the SF film of the year, the movie is unable to deliver on the promise of its set-up.” –

Alice in Wonderland (2010)

“Alice In Wonderland may look fantastic, but there's little else going for it. It's emotionally cold, utterly predictable and there's never any sense of peril.” –
