Perhaps Caine's defining role as the ruthless London villain in Newcastle to sort out some gang bovver. When he finds out his niece has become embroiled with some very seedy characters, his involvement becomes far deeper. A violent and slick thriller with an excellent feel for both time and location and a comment on the despair of Britain in the 1970s. find out more...

INTACTO (2002)

Certification15 Our Rating

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. find out more...

China in the turmoil of Japanese occupation is the evocative setting for this unusual and visually stunning tale. Recruited before she is truly aware of her purpose, a young woman is groomed to become an irresistible siren, an icon of contemporary eroticism to ensnare a collaborator who has wreaked havoc amongst her people. Ang Lee's stunning follow up to "Broke Back Mountain" is in essence a thriller but as with all his films it is the richness and depth of the characters that really drive the find out more...
