Search: Starring John C. Reilly

Screenwriter Bill Condon and director Rob Marshall have retained the spirit of the original.

For those who have seen the originals, stay away.

Like the best comedy, it's both wilfully stupid and deceptively clever, pushing buttons you may not expect.

It is by turns sad and disturbing - with occasional bouts of highly dubious dark humour.

The acting is ensemble, which means no-one stands out and everyone chips in. Day-Lewis, unrecognisable behind a 'tache wedge, is the most memorable, due to The Butcher being a bigger sicko than anyone else.

Comedy this dark is a rarity. It deserves to be cherished.

Overall, Guardians of the Galaxy is good fun.

It would be difficult to overestimate the quality of this film.

The piecemeal nature of Giovanni Boccaccio’s source material only adds to the sketch show feel, with as many moments missing the mark as hitting it.

Sentimentality is already dead. Irony lives! And coincidence is king.

Teenyboppers will think it cool, twentysomethings will throw up.

There is no room for quirky individualism, as writer Bill Wittliff shovels on the sentimentality. Even the dialogue is highlighted with italics.

A delightful, genial, lovable movie - the product of an idiosyncratic artist and master storyteller.

Fun to watch and a resourceful way to respond to the multi million dollar campaigns that were created in support of the proposition.

If this sounds like a corn fed carbon copy of a Debbie Reynolds standard, it's not

Phoenix gives his character more depth than such men are usually afforded but deliberately takes a back seat, allowing Reilly the dramatic lead role he has long deserved.

A refreshingly intelligent film with skillfully drawn characters.

Nil points for originality.

Walk Hard delivers a wonderful collection of pastiches that are both amusing and very catchy.

This gentle, beautifully made film has an understated sensitivity that runs right through it.

The beauty of Wreck-It Ralph is that it makes no difference if you spot any of the references or love videogames, such is the vibrancy of the animation and the humour of the screenplay.
