Nanny McPhee (DVD)
6 out of 6 people found this review helpful
Unlike the iconic Mary Poppins (1964), Nanny McPhee is far from "perfect in every way". Still Emma Thompson is a treat as the eponymous childminder. She also penned this adaptation of Christianna Bran... read full review

You could throw a rock at a video shop and hit a movie about the joys of parenting, but very few of those gooey family flicks deal with the actual business of making the baby. That's where Knocked Up comes... read full review

Welcome to high concept heaven, where Jim Carrey is God. Hacked off with life and frustrated at work, Carrey's failed reporter, Bruce, rages at the man upstairs. So much so that the divine dogoo... read full review

King Kong (DVD)
5 out of 5 people found this review helpful
Spectacular, clumsy, hilarious, ludicrously self-indulgent, terrifying and far too long, Peter Jackson's remake of the 1933 classic is a monster in every sense. Throwing economy to the winds, Jackson has s... read full review

Charlie And The Chocolate Factory (DVD)
5 out of 5 people found this review helpful
Deliciously dark and packed with candy-coloured visuals, Tim Burton's adaptation of Roald Dahl's Charlie And The Chocolate Factory is an intoxicating endorphin rush. Freddie Highmore is engagingly win... read full review

Run, Fat Boy, Run (DVD)

Simon Pegg sheds blood, sweat, tears and a bit of pus in Run, Fat Boy, Run, chasing the love he left behind five years previously. It's a romantic comedy told from the male perspective, but Pegg, who also ... read full review

It's been 17 years since Rocky last laced up his gloves, but you can't keep a good franchise down, and here he is again for a sixth and (hopefully) final instalment. We're all thinking the same t... read full review

The Business (DVD)

In the opening minutes of Nick Love's highly assured gangster flick, young Frankie (Danny Dyer) sees a passing jet spell out the words 'Be Someone' above the concrete prison of his South London e... read full review

Revolver (DVD)
4 out of 4 people found this review helpful
Everyone was quick to blame Guy Ritchie's partner for the downturn in his career, and on the evidence of Revolver it's true: he really is missing producer pal Matthew Vaughn. While Vaughn launched his... read full review
