Search: Starring Jared Harris

Having set a scene of intriguing grotesquery the plot falls victim of its own invention

Certain Women is a film suffused in uncertainties.

A western for sleepwalkers and dreamers.

Tears will be shed as you watch.

The subtlety comes from Crystal's underplaying, although the rat-a-tat-tat ad-libs and improv one-liners slow the movie down.

In A House Of Dynamite the uncertainties are propulsive, what we learn unsettling. Each tick of the clock reorients our understanding of the same events.

Intelligent and sophisticated.

Spielberg, as he is very good at, goes out on a limb to walk a tightrope of his own making between melodrama and sinewy storytelling.

The effects and the action and the creatures are fine. The script dies out.

Car chases and retro dialogue clog up the machinery

In any film franchise there's got to be one that's the least good, and this is it.

In the end, it is a question of taste. Either this is Capra refried, or Sandler on toast.

Twelve is the new 11 and mediocre is the new good.

Unfortunately the malicious ghouls of the title aren’t the only spirits haunting director Gil Kenan’s prefab carnival ride.

The film is about death, whether in the arena, or out

The film is perverse and weird but the director doesn't know how to choreograph it for maximum effect

The narrative deals profoundly with grief as well as loss which will assuredly resonate with most of us.

Full of shocks, but disappointingly light on horror.

For all that there are premonitions, dreams, even a witch, in truth this is a film without magic

There are quite complex issues here for children to engage with, but they’re presented in an accessible way, and repeat viewings will prompt kids to ask different questions as they get older.

Released for the Christmas audience, this film does have a touch of the pantomime about it.

Gwyneth Paltrow gives a brave, uncompromised performance that does not shrink from the self-possessed obsessions of a selfish mind.

It would seem that The Ends Of The Earth has everything going for it. Unfortunately, it's interminably boring.
