The Dark Knight
p22_cinema_394_image1-90.jpg Having re-energised the franchise with 2005’s Batman Begins, Christopher Nolan delivers a stunner of such ferocity that audiences are well advised to duck for cover.
 
Married Life
p22_cinema_image2-90.jpg “I always thought marriage was a type of illness, like chicken pox,” says Richard. His narration establishes what could be a macabre comedy, yet also a portent of dramatic misfortune, and in truth is a little of both.
 
Mamma Mia!
p22_cinema_393_image1-90.jpg Mamma Mia, here we go again: another day, another musical.
 
Salute
p22_cinema_393_image2-90.jpg Matt Norman’s insightful documentary about his uncle Peter - Olympic champion and holder of the Australian 200m record – is a telling record of politics and sport.
 
Hancock
p22_cinema_392_image1-90.jpg Deep in the heart of this half-cocked apology for an action-comedy drama is a gem of an idea. Hancock is a superhero who has fallen on hard times.
 
Standard Operating Procedure
p22_cinema_392_image2-90.jpg When does a standard operating procedure become a criminal act? So asks Morris’ hard-hitting documentary, which uses the incendiary events at Iraq’s Abu Ghraib prison to illustrate the US administration’s policy of extraordinary humiliation and abuse in the processing of POWs.
 
The Band's Visit
p22_cinema_391_image1-90.jpg When an Egyptian police band arrives in Israel to promote cross-border and cross-cultural harmony, they hardly expected the keys of the city.
 
Happy-Go-Lucky
p22_cinema_390_image1-90.jpg Poppy Cross likes to make people happy. Not as a jolly blend of Maria von Trapp and Mother Theresa, but in a wilfully sunny manner that highlights the shiny side of life.
 
Mongol
p22_cinema_image2-90.jpg The tale of Mongolia’s mightiest warrior comes with its fair share of carnage, yet this can-do tale of the Khan who did is not all death and decapitation.
 
The Incredible Hulk
p22_cinema_image1-90.jpg Why has the Hulk returned? Mostly to slot him into the same Marvel universe as other superheroes, spawn an avalanche of serum-induced franchises, and sell a few more action figures.
