Search: Directed by Danny Boyle

If, like me, you’re a fully paid-up member of the Boyle fan club, this still has all the things you go to his movies for – imagination, heart, humour and a constant desire to try something new.

Garland needs to get back to the drawing board and look up the term 'character development' in his notes.

Alfie Williams is tremendous. In a cast that includes figures like Ralph Fiennes and Jodie Comer he more than holds his own.

The message is less of a warning against perfection's poison, rather a reminder that 'desire is desire wherever you go'.

Danny Boyle brings his customary energy to James Graham’s adaptation of his own stage play, which flies along quicker than paper through a printing press.

While both McGregor and Diaz are watchable enough as a likeable loser and a redemptive bitch, there's never any sense that they're 'made for each other'.

Sprinkled with a heady dose of magic realism, this film is lovely.

Danny Boyle directs with the right balance of tension and wit, never forgetting that violence begets violence as one thing leads to another.

An unabashed crowdpleaser.

Overall, the film looks fantastic. The special-effects work, which took a year of post-production to complete, wouldn’t look out of place in a movie with ten times the budget.

Fassbender does his best to not make the man easily likable at first.

A unique piece of cinema, superbly performed and dangerously directed

Its comedy leaps barricades.

Boyle makes excellent use of London's roofscape and some dazzling modern apartments whose glass provides both reflective and transparent surfaces which help confuse dream and reality.

Is it possible to make an interesting film where only one man remembers The Beatles? Probably. Is this it? Probably not.
