Search: Starring Hugh Jackman

As a romantic comedy, this slips into the smile zone easier than you might expect.

Australia undercuts its cinematic insecurities with heart, soul and imagination.

Deadpool & Wolverine is more of the same.

As a thriller, a piece of soft porn, or a character study, the film is room temperature.

You don't have to like skiing, or care less about the Olympics, to root the hell for Eddie

Exciting, adventurous, and flush with visual and verbal gags

Seldom in cinema has eschatology been treated with such intelligence, or inspired such aching awe.

The film stands back, doesn’t take sides. As a political thriller it stays out of politics. As a human drama it rocks to a gentle rhythm.

The style is confused

The originality of Happy Feet is a genuine surprise. Whether the script will hold the attention of the under-nines is less easy to judge.

A gem for lovers of great show tunes.

A fluffy piece of nonsense that sidesteps more opportunities than it confronts.

The film overdoses on violence. There is no escape from it.

There is a sense of danger in performances that are called upon to hit high musical and emotional notes simultaneously.

What really makes the film is the delightful stop-motion animation by Laika studios, which adds a great deal to characters and action sequences alike.

Visual indigestion and intellectual flatulence

Some films envelope you, others baffle you. The Prestige is a mixture of the two.

Prisoners, surprisingly for a film that lasts 153 minutes, holds you captive for the entire runtime.

Really delivers on the robot action.

The set-up is formulaic, to say the least.

The ladle of light-hearted farce is never far enough from the plot.

Despite all the lingering close ups, it's hard to feel anything for these women.

This is a film of boundaries and barriers and attempts to overcome them.

Always feels grounded and honest and a little bit awkward in all the right ways.

Travolta revels in his role. Mr Bad suits him and he has the charm to pull it off.

Van Helsing doesn't pretend to be anything other than a comic book adventure, but even comic book adventures need some kind of grounding in reality.

The more adult tone will please some fans who want their Wolverine gritty, but it desperately lacks the smart, knowing humour of Singer’s films.

I'm afraid this can't leap buildings in a single bound, no matter what the hype says.

What's good about director Bryan Singer's approach is that he respects the material and so do the actors. There is not a whiff of parody.

What makes this film so enjoyable is the chemistry that holds its ensemble together.

It’s not a washout, it’s just a mixed bag.

A lot of the scenes seem stilted, or rushed, and there are very few memorable lines.
