Down by Law (1986)
88%
4/5
“Fellow musician John Lurie and Italian actor Roberto Benigni play his cellmates Jack and Bob, and the trio do a fine job of playing people who suck up a mutual dislike to join forces and commit an imperfect crime.” –

Green Zone (2010)
53%
4/5
“Green Zone is a supremely slick flick which doesn't overdo the political dialogue and knows exactly when to blow up a car in a long and complicated action sequence.” –

3/5
“Neither Scorsese nor Di Caprio is at the top of their game in Shutter Island, but like all successful teams they know how to win when they're playing badly. Good not great.” –

Crazy Heart (2009)
90%
4/5
“Although it's a bit like watching Jeff Bridges look you in the eyes, waft his boozy breath in your face and shout "CAN I HAVE AN OSCAR PLEASE?", it's difficult not to be charmed by everything about Crazy Heart.” –

“It's 100% genuinely undeniably categorically without-a-doubt unlike anything you've ever seen before and if you like graphics and special effects and stuff that's totally new, you'll love it.” –

Harry Brown (2009)
63%
4/5
“Fast and blood-splattered, stinks of weed, underage sex, mindless murder, blind loyalty and flexible morals and doesn't sell out to a cheesy ending.” –

Fish Tank (2009)
91%
4/5
“Fish Tank is a simple but incredibly, almost unbelievably, powerful film. No man or woman with warm blood in their body will come away from it feeling chirpy. On the plus side, it's so reassuringly brilliant that you'll feel proud to be British.” –

3/5

Punisher: War Zone (2008)
29%
3/5
“As entertaining as Punisher: War Zone is, there's no real depth, the plot is obvious and it's a wee bit charmless.” –
