Three young Hong Kong hustlers move to Saigon to try and profit, smuggling penicillin and gold, from the war, but their friendship is tested to the limits through greed, betrayal and lust, amid the horrors of a war-torn Vietnam. Comparable to the 'Deer Hunter', this violent epic is the most ambitiously personal and political of John Woo's films, but still comes packed with guns, explosives and balletic action.

Keeping it modern, but taking the man with more lives than an over-subscribed cattery back to his beginnings, we follow the suave thug-in-a-suit as he earns his ‘00' licence to kill status. This Bond is one mean hard-arsed mother and it's nice to see him played by an actor who looks like he can genuinely run without a group of nervous paramedics circling just out of camera shot. I thoroughly enjoyed this movie, it's brooding, brutal, dark and replete with some great action sequences, but, as my

In a not far off dystopian future women have become infertile and governments have forgotten that Orwell's ‘1984' was supposed to be a searing indictment of what NOT to do. Into this less than hopeful world arrives a young woman who has achieved the miracle of pregnancy, everyone wants the child as a cynical totem for the people, and those planning rebellion are as ruthless as those in power. Finding a reluctant but increasingly determined guardian in the form of Theo, mother and child go in sea

Chev Chelios has just run out of luck, a man of highly dubious morals his days in the LA underworld come crashing to a halt when he discovers he's been injected with a drug that results in his heart ceasing to beat. Chev's only hope, until he can find an antidote, is to keep the adrenalin thumping through his system and, to this end, he sets about becoming a one-man wrecking crew. Reminiscent of an updated 50s B-movie Crank is a remarkably twisted main stream action movie, brutal, grotesquely hu

Our hero, repeating his role as the villainous London wide boy Chev, stomps his way round LA looking for the dastardly sod who has nicked his heart and replaced it with a battery run pump that needs regular high-level external electric boosts to keep functioning. A fine, darkly comic, over-the-top, non-stop, action flick, with tongue firmly in cheek and some great set pieces.

The true WW2 story of how a Jewish group led by the Bielski brothers, including many women, oldies and children, survived for 4 years in the then Polish, now Belorussian, forests, lived in dugouts, built a kitchen, a mill, a bakery, a bathhouse, a medical clinic for the sick and wounded and a quarantine hut for typhus sufferers. The film has rather twisted reality, introducing action and battle scenes that never took place, and totally ignores both the role of the Polish partisans, causing some

Set in Johannesburg (more than a welcome change to the usual formulaic Hollywood paradigm whereby LA or New York are not only the backdrop for disaster but act too as the centre-point of planet Earth), An ominous mothership hovers above Johannesburg containing an alien race of insectoid refugees. Derogatively referred to as 'Prawns' by humans they are cordoned off in an apartheid-esque fashion and forced to live a desolate and slum-like existence in the titular District 9.
