Film Critic

Elf (2003)

"Ferrell is the life and soul of an infectiously entertaining Christmas celebration (…) Rating: **** (out of 5)"

Radio Times
The Last Supper (1995)

"[An] entertaining but insubstantial black comedy (…) Rating: *** (out of 5)"

Radio Times
The River (1984)

"Well-shot, but fairly inconsequential (...) [Gibson] offers a strong performance, but is hampered by a superficial script (…) Rating: ** (out of 5)"

Radio Times
Replicant (2001)

"If you can overlook some massive leaps of logic (...) this is a passable action workout (…) Rating: ** (out of 5)"

Radio Times
Tremors II: Aftershocks (1996)

"A surprisingly entertaining made-for-video sequel to Ron Underwood's minor classic monster movie (…) Rating: *** (out of 5)"

Radio Times
Love Actually (2003)

"Even the most cynical of hearts couldn't fail to be lifted by the charm of the characters and their romantic dilemmas (…) Rating: *** (out of 5)"

Radio Times
Dog Soldiers (2002)

"This is as scary, funny and exhilarating as any Hollywood fright-fest of recent years (…) Rating: **** (out of 5)"

Radio Times
Daylight (1996)

"Cohen's orchestration of the requisite action scenes (...) is impressive. Although by no means a genre classic, this provides enough solid entertainment to offset its overfamiliar storyline (…) Rating: *** (out of 5)"

Radio Times
Out for Justice (1991)

"Seagal gets more dialogue than in all his other movies put together in this lukewarm attempt to give him a lot more heart and soul (…) Rating: ** (out of 5)"

Radio Times
The Law of Desire (1987)

"An absurdly funny and touching tale from a gifted film-maker (…) Rating: *** (out of 5)"

Radio Times
The Crucible (1996)

"Arthur Miller's emotionally raw play (...) is here brilliantly brought to the screen by director Nicholas Hytner (...) Daniel Day-Lewis is characteristically intense (…) Rating: **** (out of 5)"

Radio Times
First Blood (1982)

"An involving action drama (...) The warfare is tautly assembled by director Ted Kotcheff and Stallone portrays Rambo with enough wounded conviction to forgive some of his increasingly far-fetched escapes (…) Rating: *** (out of 5)"

Radio Times
Signs (2002)

"'Meaningful' moments that feel awkward and manipulative. Where Shyamalan does score highly is with the edgy, apprehensive atmosphere that he builds up (...) Entertaining, if a little disappointing.(…) Rating: *** (out of 5)"

Radio Times
Monsters, Inc. (2001)

"[A] frantic, funny and very furry animated feature (...) The attention to detail is as staggering as ever (…) Rating: ***** (out of 5)"

Radio Times
Urban Legend (1998)

"The pedestrian direction, bland cast and ludicrous final unmasking don't add up to much (…) Rating: ** (out of 5)"

Radio Times
End of Days (1999)

"While Arnie's amateurish emoting never rings true (...) the 'Devil searching for his bride' story provides some decent popcorn entertainment (…) Rating: *** (out of 5)"

Radio Times
The Faculty (1998)

"[It] succeeds thanks to the assured performances of the teenage cast, zippy direction and the writer's refusal to take even the most tense moments seriously (…) Rating: *** (out of 5)"
