  • Fantastic Four (2005)

  • Fantastic Four: Rise Of The Silver Surfer (2007)

    Amber Wilkinson · 3 out of 5
    The Marvel superheroes have a slight hitch with a wedding when the earth is threatened with destruction.

    The film that spawned Andy's 'favourite' toy.

  • Not Another Teen Movie (2002)
    Review preview for Not Another Teen Movie

    The five scriptwriters working on this can't think of anything funnier than an exploding bog and an errant vibrator.

    Angus Wolfe Murray · 2 out of 5
    A pastiche of teen movies, with cast of unknowns and sex on the brain

    Review preview for The Perfect Score

    Irony and danger is hinted at, only to be reeled in to the safer backwaters of Hollywood banality.

    Sobhano · 1 out of 5

  • Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World (2010)
    Review preview for Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World

    For all the postmodern presentation, every emotion here ultimately rings true, and there are enough great ideas, oddball characters, amiable performances and big laughs to ensure that this remains a cult favourite.

    Anton Bitel · 4 out of 5
    A man finds he has to defeat his girlfriend's evil ex-boyfriends.
  • Snowpiercer (2013)
    Review preview for Snowpiercer

    The mix of action and satire also turns it into an absorbing hell of a ride.

    Sophie Charlotte Rieger · 4.5 out of 5
    In a future where a failed global-warming experiment kills off most life on the planet, a class system evolves aboard the Snowpiercer, a train that travels around the globe via a perpetual-motion engine.
  • Sunshine (2007)
    Review preview for Sunshine

    Overall, the film looks fantastic. The special-effects work, which took a year of post-production to complete, wouldn’t look out of place in a movie with ten times the budget.

    Steve Harwood · 5 out of 5
    Astronauts are sent to try to save earth by reigniting the sun.

    The heroes in a half shell are back on the big screen.
  • What's Your Number? (2011)
    Review preview for What's Your Number?

    Mylod doles out cliche after cliche - drinks and debauchery in clubs, waking up with Mr Wrong - but never injects enough warmth or humor into proceedings to keep them fresh.

    David Graham · 2.5 out of 5
    A woman revisits her past 20 boyfriends to see if she's lost Mr Right.
