ATONEMENT (MA)
p22_cinema_364_image1-90.jpg Director Joe Wright keeps Atonement close to its literary source while adding first-rate performances and the exquisite production values of Merchant-Ivory.
 
I’M NOT THERE (MA)
p22_cinema_364_image2-90.jpg Director Todd Haynes (Far From Heaven) turns his lens on one of the 20th century’s greatest iconoclasts - Bob Dylan - in this sweeping, often bewildering epic.
 
2 DAYS IN PARIS (MA)
p24_cinema_363_image1-90.jpg 2 Days In Paris is the kind of biting comedy Woody Allen could once have made; a non-stop talk-fest that, for all its laugh-out-loud moments (and there are many), engages the audience with its intimacy.
 
THE GOLDEN COMPASS (PG)
p22_cinema_363_image2-90.jpg In compressing Phillip Pullman’s His Dark Materials trilogy, director Chris Weitz has created a juggernaut of a film that veers from scene to scene with all the grace of a, well, juggernaut.
 
COEURS (M)
p26_cinema_362_image1-90.jpg Coeurs is sometimes tragic, sometimes amusing but most of the time it fails to ring true. At best, this is a protracted, uneven affair that, nevertheless, will find favour with enthusiastic Francophile audiences of a certain age.
 
HUNTING AND GATHERING (M)
p26_cinema_362_image2-90.jpg Hunting And Gathering is a small, sweet drama in which lonely people find a way to get more out of life - it may not shake your world, but it will certainly add something to it.
 
BEOWULF (M)
p22_cinema_361_image1-90.jpg For all its bravado (“I AM BEOWULF!”), this film is saddled with ridiculous situations and unintentionally hilarious dialogue.
 
1408 (MA)
p22_cinema_361_image2-90.jpg 1408's genuinely creepy tone is replaced by increasingly silly, if astonishing set pieces as the ghosts turn up the heat.
 
CRAZY LOVE (M)
p22_cinema_360_image1-90.jpg Never was a documentary so well titled. This examination of obsession was nominated for a Grand Jury Prize at Sundance for, among other reasons, its capacity to surprise.
 
SEPTEMBER (M)
p22_cinema_360_image2-90.jpg In most regards, September is a companion piece to Somersault and Romulus, My Father: the former for its haunting, ethereal tone; the latter for an acute sense of time and place.
