Search: Starring Michael Rooker

The plot is absurdly complicated and durr brain simple.

The killer's identity adds fuel to the flames of absurdity.

Making sense of explosions on green screen is a tough call

Overall, Guardians of the Galaxy is good fun.

It has all the hallmarks of a production destined for a television mini-series with apparently three other chapters promised by Costner.

Despite its winning formula of talent, concept and visual execution, Jumper feels like a slightly anaemic first instalment.

The Pates use flashback, like postcards from the pit, exploring aspects of character that contradict and expose.

Hero, here playing a character called Boy (with support from fellow canine Dodge), is the most impressive canine star to grace the screen since the much-loved Uggie, and he is the main reason to watch this film.

The inconsistency of tone infects every part of the film, leading to uneven performances .

Pity about the storyline. Same old same-old.

What the film does well is to provide an air of sheer unpredictability.

Accompanying the ample gore of Slither is dialogue that, without ever resorting to cheap gags, or deviating from the integrity of the story, is laugh-out-loud funny.

There's so much that borrows from other places that Superman doesn't feel indebted as much as hollowed out.
