Search: Starring Kerry Washington

The jokes dry up, because Rock is a one-gag guy

It has a kick in its heel and a nice surprise at the end

We get to witness the birth of a new genre and are confronted with a violent American history that Hollywood fictions have previously not dared to tackle.

While the gags are aimed squarely at a family audience, there’s nothing wrong with that and this is certainly a film you could take even tiddlers to without worrying they are going to have nightmares later.

Overall, this is a disappointment from LaBute.

It is a brave film that portrays Idi Amin not simply as a monster, but as a complex individual.

Bening’s performance is a triumph over leaden writing.

The concept is halfway interesting, the production so overburdened with explosive devices it might have been made in Iraq and the screenplay is as appetising as damp toast.

Shot in an unobtrusive style, the camera lets the girls tell their story themselves.

The Prom's heart is in the right place but its beat never quite finds a strong rhythm.

An epic biopic with charm, finesse and very few flaws.

The racial division is well-handled. The love story feels genuine and the tensions it creates are neither ignored nor washed.

Me hate it.

Easily delivering on the big emotional beats, The Six Triple Eight is a natural crowd pleaser.
