Every once in a while a film comes along with a story so intriguing, so mind-bogglingly interesting, that you have to watch it, no matter how well it is told. That's the deal with 'Intacto'. The story concerns a world where luck is as much a commodity as money and like money, it can be won, lost, traded or stolen. The film concentrates on the contests that have been devised over the years, ingeniously conceived for the film, and overseen by the Grand Chancer of them all, played by Max Von Sydow.

Christopher McCandless is a bright, likable, precociously perceptive, young middle-class college graduate, who, tortured by his dysfunctional childhood, is determined to find a simpler, purer and more harmonious life. He gives away all that he has and sets out across North America, his ultimate goal the perfect isolation of the Alaskan wilderness. Based on real events 'Into The Wild' is beautifully judged, paced and performed; an epic, gloriously visualised road trip and also a moving and though

Tony Stark is the epitome of "come-the-revolution…" capitalism, a morally ambiguous playboy billionaire who's built his wealth on mankind's incessant need to slaughter his fellows, but, after showing off one of his latest weapons to the military, Stark endures an experience that will leave him, both physically and mentally, a changed man. Stark is now an individual with a conscience, a burning desire to see justice done and the limitless cash to make it a reality… the building of a ‘superhero'

Mona’s teenage life defines the word ‘crap’, not tragic, just without hope; her brother is the only family she has left and he’s found God in the same obsessively sociopathic way that he originally found booze, while a weekly hump in the back of a van with a married man actually constitutes fun rather than repetitive sexual abuse. Into this world wanders Tamsin, pretty, pretentious, spoilt but ignored and with a dangerous sense of mischief born of arrogance and naivety. An intense relationship b

Undoubtedly one of Hitch's best. An innocent businessman is mistaken for a spy by enemy agents and learns the true meaning of persecution, while a deceptively beautiful blonde in the pay of his tormentors steals his heart. A tense and compulsively gripping nice-guy's nightmare. Obligatory viewing.

The world as a lunatic asylum. Jack Nicholson plays the anarchist determined to challenge the smug system of authority and obedience that rule the roost. The first film by Czech dissident Forman after migrating from Czechoslovakia to the United States, and a superb comment on society! Won Best Picture plus others at 1975 Academy Awards.

A group of teenagers watch a mysterious videotape and within a week all are dead, their lifeless faces frozen in complete terror. Enter deeply cynical journalist Reiko, unable to resist the now legendary myth, and finding herself drawn into a world of unimaginable horror and fear. Ring is a genuinely frightening movie, no post 'Scream' irony, no knowing sideswipes at the genre, just a chew your nails to the bone slice of terror.

A quirky, clever and charming movie from rookie director Anderson, who flies in the face of convention by making the hero of this high school-based comedy a slightly geeky academic who's anything but the all-American kid. Max Fischer is a brilliant but mixed-up scholarship kid at the Rushmore Academy, with a frenzied timetable and an uncanny knack of baffling both students and teachers alike. He attracts the attention of Blume (the superb Bill Murray), a rich, bored, middle-aged parent, apparen
