Search: Starring Sandra Bullock

Crushingly predictable.

The very worst thing about this film is its message.

This seven minute short was originally made to go with Gravity but it stands up very well on its own.

Director John Lee Hancock doesn't seem to have the guts to go the full distance and pulls his punches every time. We get gloss instead of grit.

Haggis weaves his tapestry with infinite skill, aided by exquisite performances.

Sugar levels are high, but so is vitriol.

The strongest features of the of the film are the performances by Max von Sydow and by Sandra Bullock as Linda, Oskar's mother.

[Bullock] stretches those irresponsible muscles. It suits her. Affleck still can't match his performance in Chasing Amy.

Alfonso Cuaron's film comes with a powerful force of its own - one which drags you towards the edge of your seat, forces your nails down into the cinema arm rests and sucks the breath out of you.

First names are, of course, never used because they're out-menning the men in every department, including misogynist asides and police brutality - by the end of the runtime you wonder why they bothered casting women at all.

Steve Rogers' script is sharp enough and sugar free (that's relative, or course - the ending is candy floss).

It makes you want to pick up the scriptwriter and throw him at a concrete wall.

The Lost City proves just how much extra mileage you can get from a well-worn premise if you get the casting right.

Minions is very funny.

The film's weakness lies in its storyline, which is knotted with sub-plots.

The joke - there is only one - has a touch of the Eliza Doolittles about it.

A cat's breakfast has more chance of winning an award for neatness.

Violence and testosterone have been swiped in favour of mind games and dangerously seductive evening gowns

The ladies act their socks off. To no avail. The plot saws itself in half... forever.

The film looks wonderful, but suffers from its own ambition.

There are two main problems with this film - firstly, you can see the emotional resolution coming a mile off, secondly, you're not actually sure what's happened by the end of play.

Follows a standard rom-com formula and there won’t be anything you haven’t seen a hundred times before.

A heart-in-your-mouth experience.

Five minutes into the movie and you know how it's going to end.
