Search: Starring Paul Guilfoyle

The anatomy of CSI remains hale and healthy and is, in the ninth season of the show, arguably strengthened by the loss of old characters and the introduction of new ones.

The cinematic technique is never less than cutting-edge, although occasionally, things get too stylish for their own good.

While many a primetime drama has ended up drowning in soap, CSI could do to take a shower in it a little more often.

There isn't a massive amount of 'action' per say, but Apted's expertly-paced tale throbs with genuine suspense as the net progressively closes in on Guy.

Part of the appeal of Howard is the fact that he is actually physically there and not some ghost who has been photo-shopped in afterwards.

Downey is juicy, Bening is brave, the rest are out to lunch.

What is unexpected in this self-conscious pander to the cult of genre cinema is the violence. It lacks the dignity of constraint.

Scott Thomas is a revelation. Few actors work from the inside out with such delicacy and focus.

Spotlight does not fall into the trap of explanatory flashbacks. We do not need to see the protagonists' past because we can tell so much from what they are wearing.
