It romps along with an effortless bounce and charm. How much will stay with you, though, is another matter.

It's not crash-bang enough for those who love superhero films, not complex enough for those who hate them. It's flawed, then, but a flawed work of brilliance.

Slick and polished, the rest is by-the-numbers schmaltz, offset only by the adorable presence of Ms Fisher.

The film, about ageing and mortality, racism and redemption, is one of Eastwood's finest: tender, tragic and funny in equal measures.

Valkyrie

Stuart McGurk
|
In the end, despite him playing someone with a missing eye, it's a vanity project for Cruise - a heavyweight historical drama to put him back on the map, but one that only sees him more lost.

It's Rourke's display - crushed, hopeful, almost unbearably poignant - that'll stay with you after the ring lights fade. His light hasn't died just yet.

Isabelle Carr is superb as Anna, but the problem is the tone. Caught between psychological study and thriller, it aims for both - but achieves neither.

Brick Lane

Monica Ali's sensitive sprawling text about a Bangledeshi wife (Chatterjee) forced into an east London marriage gets a sanded-down blandification as it makes its lurch onto the big screen.

Beowulf
(2007)
|

The film is surprisingly thoughtful about adult relationships and human fallibility, while the eerie animation of its stars, like it or not, seems to mark an important development for the future of film.
