Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace (1999) 54% 7/10 “...although the film blends stunning effects with familiar themes and faces, the new film will disappoint any movie-goers new to the series. However, die-hard Star Wars fans are sure to love it.” – Daily Record (UK) Apr 16, 2025 Full Review Tarzan (1999) 90% 9/10 “Something to yell about from the treetops. It looks fantastic and blends humour with romance to produce a hugely enjoyable film.” – Daily Record (UK) Dec 20, 2024 Full Review One Night Stand (1997) 33% “[An] irritatingly languid bout of yuppie love.” – Daily Record (UK) Aug 6, 2024 Full Review 8 Heads in a Duffel Bag (1997) 7% “The only surprise in this predictable movie is that it's by the man who won an Oscar for scripting Dead Poets' Society. ” – Daily Record (UK) Aug 6, 2024 Full Review Alien Resurrection (1997) 55% “Alien Resurrection manages a fresh spin on what seemed to be an exhausted series. ” – Daily Record (UK) Aug 6, 2024 Full Review Grease (1978) 66% 8/10 “In the supporting cast, you can find the movie's one truly great performance from Stockard Channing, as Rizzo.” – Daily Record (UK) Feb 2, 2024 Full Review The Matrix (1999) 83% 7/10 “The Matrix is just the right film to put Keanu back on track; an exhilarating, exciting cyber thriller with all the brains of a headless chicken.” – Daily Record (UK) Jul 13, 2023 Full Review The Lovebirds (2020) 66% 1/5 “At least on Netflix, no-one has to shell out for a babysitter to watch this on date night, but this slapdash film is strictly for the birds.” – Scotsman May 27, 2020 Full Review The County (2019) 84% 3/5 “As drama, The County may eschew big speeches and big references, but it clearly nods to the undermining of communal effort and the implacable creep of monocultures and global companies.” – Scotsman May 27, 2020 Full Review Selma (2014) 99% 4/5 “Don't let this put you off Selma: it's a good, although not great movie, that steers a coherent path through a weighty historical moment.” – Scotsman Oct 4, 2018 Full Review Quantum of Solace (2008) 63% 3/5 “Maybe Bond is still an action figure whose default setting is beating up bad guys, pulling out a gun and running across roofs. But if boys have to be boys, it's a huge relief to know the new Bond age is confident enough to keep them conflicted about it.” – Scotland on Sunday Nov 2, 2015 Full Review Kingsman: The Secret Service (2015) 75% 4/5 “Firth is the lynchpin of Kingsman. It's a pleasure to watch him take down a pub full of heavies, but Firth also brings a suave wit to his line readings and a moral core to the over-caffeinated violence.” – Scotland on Sunday Jul 13, 2015 Full Review X-Men: Days of Future Past (2014) 90% 3/5 “I like that X-Men eschews the hipster cynicism of other superhero movies, and that Singer encourages the cast to give their performances Shakespearian vigour.” – Scotland on Sunday Jul 13, 2015 Full Review Kick-Ass 2 (2013) 33% 3/5 “This time the transgressive punch-ups feel awfully forced.” – Scotland on Sunday Jul 7, 2015 Full Review Amour fou (2014) 88% 3/5 “The pace is slow and the comedy mordant, but Friedel and Schnoeink are terrific.” – Scotsman Feb 9, 2015 Full Review The Turning (2013) 86% 3/5 “Winton is important to Australian culture, but a less fragmented, reverent approach would serve his work better.” – Scotsman Feb 9, 2015 Full Review Love Is Strange (2014) 93% 3/5 “Gentle and naturalistic, Love Is Strange is an intimate portrait of devotion that you will root for, without falling in love.” – Scotsman Feb 9, 2015 Full Review Jupiter Ascending (2015) 28% 2/5 “Jupiter Ascending vibrates like an episode of Star Wars retold by a teenager on Red Bull, a cacophony of nonsense that peaks with poor Sean Bean telling us that "bees are genetically designed to recognise royalty".” – Scotsman Feb 9, 2015 Full Review Son of a Gun (2014) 63% 3/5 “There are some exciting set pieces and McGregor is unusually but effectively cast as a hardboiled lifer.” – Scotsman Jan 27, 2015 Full Review The Gambler (2014) 43% 3/5 “The movie has the sheen but lacks the sweat of James Toback's original riff on Dostoevsky's autobiographical story.” – Scotsman Jan 19, 2015 Full Review A Most Violent Year (2014) 90% 4/5 “A Most Violent Year may lack originality but there are fine performances throughout, especially from Isaac.” – Scotland on Sunday Jan 19, 2015 Full Review Ex Machina (2014) 92% 4/5 “A smart, accomplished piece of work that presses all the right buttons.” – Scotsman Jan 19, 2015 Full Review Pride (2014) 93% 4/5 “Pride depicts an interesting bit of history, but its real message is about two vilified and marginalised groups who discover comradeship, solidarity and Bronski Beat.” – Scotsman Jan 5, 2015 Full Review Captain America: The Winter Soldier (2014) 90% 3/5 “Chris Evans is back as Captain America, powered by super-serum and a sense of loss.” – Scotsman Jan 4, 2015 Full Review The Woman in Black 2: Angel of Death (2014) 25% 2/5 “With a lot of repetitive jumps, jolts and shrieking, it's a haunted house story that's only marginally more unsettling than next year's stamp duty charges.” – Scotsman Dec 29, 2014 Full Review
