Sisters (2015) 60% 3/5 EDIT “Even though the movie is very loosely plotted and slightly outstays its welcome, Fey and Poehler have perfect comic timing and it's the ripe and racy patter between them that keeps the energy levels up when most people would just call it a night.” – Digital Spy Dec 22, 2015 Full Review The Hateful Eight (2015) 74% 4/5 EDIT “It's chatty, it's gory, and it features juicy roles for all of QT's unusual suspects. If you've gone off Quentin of late, this will not turn you round, but if you love the outspoken director's previous fare, you're going to adore The Hateful Eight.” – Digital Spy Dec 22, 2015 Full Review Joy (2015) 61% 3/5 EDIT “Slick and entertaining, Joy is just a little too slight for this much Oscar-worthy talent.” – Digital Spy Dec 22, 2015 Full Review Star Wars: The Force Awakens (2015) 93% 4/5 EDIT “It's slick, it's smart and you feel like you're in safe hands the whole time. JJ Abrams should breathe a massive sigh of relief: he's done it. He's made one of the good ones.” – Digital Spy Dec 16, 2015 Full Review The Good Dinosaur (2015) 76% 3/5 EDIT “In a sea of over-complicated kids' films, full of lore and tricksy set-up, here is an easily understandable tale of loss, love and overcoming your fears.” – Digital Spy Nov 24, 2015 Full Review Momentum (2015) 26% 1/5 EDIT “One of the worst films you won't see in 2015.” – Empire Magazine Nov 12, 2015 Full Review Brooklyn (2015) 97% 4/5 EDIT “Well-acted, well-directed and well-shot, Brooklyn is one of those flat-out "good" films it's nigh-on impossible to dislike.” – Digital Spy Nov 9, 2015 Full Review We'll Never Have Paris (2014) 33% 2/5 EDIT “The nebbishness is spot on, but it lacks vintage Woody Allen's charm and humour.” – Empire Magazine Oct 29, 2015 Full Review Crimson Peak (2015) 72% 2/5 EDIT “Sterile but still entertaining, this is far from a disaster, but definitely a disappointment.” – Digital Spy Oct 16, 2015 Full Review Suffragette (2015) 73% 3/5 EDIT “Expect no old-fashioned whimsy; your cockles will not be warmed.” – Digital Spy Oct 7, 2015 Full Review The Martian (2015) 91% 4/5 EDIT “The Martian is Ridley Scott's best film in nearly 15 years.” – Digital Spy Sep 28, 2015 Full Review Maze Runner: The Scorch Trials (2015) 47% 3/5 EDIT “Director Wes Ball returns for the follow-up, delivering a slicker and more confident product, full of grander set-pieces and tougher themes.” – Digital Spy Sep 8, 2015 Full Review The Transporter Refueled (2015) 16% 2/5 EDIT “In the shadow of The Stath, it doesn't stand up - and the original films weren't masterpieces in the first place.” – Digital Spy Sep 3, 2015 Full Review Fantastic Four (2015) 9% 2/5 EDIT “As an origin story that's all origins and no story, there's a hollow, stale feeling to this occasionally admirable attempt to Nolanise Marvel's dysfunctional family.” – Empire Magazine Aug 6, 2015 Full Review Man Up (2015) 81% 3/5 EDIT “If it could decide whether it was a cute romcom or a dirty one, Man Up would be a real gem, but as charming as it is, it falls between two stools and never manages to, ahem, Man Up.” – Empire Magazine May 25, 2015 Full Review Home (2015) 53% 2/5 EDIT “Mostly harmless.” – Empire Magazine Mar 19, 2015 Full Review Mortdecai (2015) 12% 2/5 EDIT “Though the books are brilliant, Depp's attempt to make his own Terry-Thomas movie feels tired and more than a little tortured.” – Empire Magazine Jan 22, 2015 Full Review Taken 3 (2014) 13% 2/5 EDIT “Megaton's choppy editing barely disguises his star's hatred of running, while a brutal 12A neutering lessens what limited fun remains in seeing Oskar Schindler creakily throw a Russian bad 'un into some supermarket shelves.” – Empire Magazine Jan 8, 2015 Full Review The Great Museum (2014) 67% 3/5 EDIT “Worthy and mildly interesting, this is a curio that will mainly intrigue die-hard museos.” – Empire Magazine Dec 11, 2014 Full Review Mistaken for Strangers (2013) 92% 4/5 EDIT “It could easily have been a workaday music doc, but amid all the gigs, pit stops and sound checks emerges a funny and wry story of brothers at work.” – Empire Magazine Jun 23, 2014 Full Review Seduced and Abandoned (2013) 83% 3/5 EDIT “Jollied up with some fun anecdotes from Hollywood's great and good, this is entertaining, if hardly hugely revelatory stuff.” – Empire Magazine Nov 4, 2013 Full Review Nine (2009) 39% 4/5 EDIT “Though slightly marred by a clunky structure and a lack of truly catchy tunes, Nine's wall-to-wall first-rate performances from its stellar cast (especially Cotillard) add a touch of class.” – Empire Magazine Dec 18, 2009 Full Review
