Search: Starring Martin Landau

Ideas of fascism, loss of the soul and post-apocalyptic existence, all ripe for exploration, are given a body swerve in favour of muddled new-age nonsense.

Although it's not entirely successful as a film, its balance of comedy and tragedy serves to demystify a part of life too often hidden away.

Feels like a not-terribly-good ITV drama.

Few actors have ever come to embody a historical figure in such a powerful way.

Good as Caroline Thompson's script is this is a City Of Ember that could do with a little stoking.

None of the characters are interesting. They slip into stereotype and stay there, grinning.

Alternately hilarious and touching.

While drawing on influences from the Golden Age of Universal horror movies such as Wolfman and Frankenstein, this is a animal entirely borne of Burton - and it's all the better for it.

Because of a multitude of sub-plots, the main one gets overlooked, until suddenly there's a car chase, or guns go off.

The inevitable sadness is balanced by so much joy and energy that it's a delight to watch.

Jim Carrey plays Jimmy Stewart in a homespun piece of whimsy that is far too long.

It's a nonsense, but when the storytelling is this good it doesn't matter.

Atom Egoyan's terrifically paced episodic thriller Remember is hard to forget.

The film has an authenticity that cuts deep.

Caine turns in a picture-stealing performance as the over-ambitious Shiner, menacing and yet able to find the humour in his role.

Although the ground it broke can only be broken once, it's clear to see why The Twilight Zone has been so respected, influential, copied and parodied since it first appeared, nearly 50 years ago.

The effects are fun, the script is sharp and suspension of disbelief encouraged.
