Search: Starring Malcolm McDowell

It's exploitation cinema but it's made with care.

Ash Avildsen's sophomore feature doesn't have much to say that's new but it knows how to entertain.

I cannot remember the last time a film made me cry and laugh out loud half a minute later, especially not in public. The Artist did that.

As a first feature, it may not be totally surprising or very subtle, but it does have some impact, particularly visually.

Much more complex than it appears on the surface, this is a film full of multi-layered characters powered by great performances, addressing familiar cinematic subjects with a voice of its own.

Bolt has a maturity over its predecessors in that the film doesn't obsess over its need to stick something in your face every few minutes.

Bombshell is a finely crafted film which benefits from one of the best acting ensembles of the year.

It's not awful, it's just not good.

This is not an erotic movie, true there are copious scenes of copulation... but Brass doesn't linger on them long enough for them to become titillating, he has to show something gross and/or bloody in the same scene.

It belongs on the big screen, to a world of cinematic sensation beyond lightweight blockbusters and under-financed independents.

Kubrick's canvas is best enjoyed large, right at the front.

If you like the post-apocalypse films of the Eighties and fancy seeing another one that just happened to have been made 19 years late, this is the film for you.

Phillips is as careful in his portrayal as his character is in managing his reputation.

This is an oddity, a curiosity, a mystery not so much in the sense of a religious play but in its intent.

Perhaps not as good as the sum of it’s parts, McGuigan’s second effort is visually impressive, a great comeback for McDowell and a launching pad for Bettany.

One film can change the world. This almost does.

Owen is fine when looking moody, but not so good when given dialogue - it seems too staged, too deliberate.

A simple, delicate comedy .

The script is weak and tackles the story with such superficial lightness that nothing makes an impact.

More watchable than ever.

What is missing is kiddies' fun.

Squeezing a titter out of this proves as difficult as squeezing Kelly [Lynch] into her clothes.

A good evening's entertainment which, for an Anderson newbie like myself, provides a decent primer in his work.

If you’re already familiar with Krystyna’s story, you’re likely to find the film satisfying enough, if a little weak in places; but if you’re not, you’re really going to struggle to keep track.

After 15 minutes of fast zooms, sliced cuts, topsy pans and turvy close ups you want to be sick... after 40 minutes, you have eaten your words and are beginning to think this is original and thrilling.

The tone may be cheeky and playful, but it is always affectionately so.

It's the incoherent plotting and pitiful support acting that really sink Revelation.

Funny and weirdly appealing despite its low-budget origins.

This all-singing, all-dancing, big gun blazing, kangaroo-fucking anarchist had a style that was all her own.

Silly in places but smart in others, and well structured throughout.
