Che: Part Two (Guerrilla) (2008)

5/5
Del Toro in the lead role... is an absolutely masterful performance, a tour de force portrayal that gets under the skin of Che without resorting the caricature.

Gran Torino (2009)
As a film, Gran Torino is powerful, moving and entertaining; as a tribute to a living legend, it's deeply, indelibly affecting.

The Tattooist (2007)
The Tattooist is an interesting, neat little thriller that effectively combines ancient customs with modern film-making techniques.

The Unborn (2009)
But the film's fundamental flaw is that these solid spooky moments hang on a narrative that's not nearly strong enough to bear their weight.

Repo! The Genetic Opera (2008)
Essentially, it's a brave, bold and brash piece of film-making that deserves to find a cult home on DVD.

Watchmen (2009)
The essence of what made [Alan] Moore's tale a work of genius is up on the screen for all to see, and it looks phenomenal.

It's a triumph of documentary making, and a truly entertaining movie in its own right.

W. (2008)
Ultimately this portrayal of Bush as a bumbling buffoon is lacking any real satirical teeth, particularly as it's all played out like a straightforward biopic.

Paul Blart: Mall Cop (2009)
But it's not meant to be deep - it's intended as an easy-going laugh-fest and on that front it succeeds thanks exclusively to Kevin James's energetic performance.

Quantum of Solace (2008)
Bond is being further shaped into the character we've always known, and will most definitely be back to fight another day.

Afghan Star (2009)
It's absolutely fascinating to see such a familiar talent show format - complete with sharp-tongued judges and starry-eyed wannabees - in such a vastly different setting.

Changeling (2008)
Changeling simmers with emotion, tension and that sense of wide-eyed incredulity that comes with such an unbelievable true story.

4/5
Indeed, the film may be a thoughtful meditation on the fragility of life, but it's also a celebration on the powerful, enduring strength of love.

Hansel & Gretel (2007)
An original take on an age-old story, Hansel & Gretel is a small but powerful addition to the Eastern horror genre.

Transporter 3 (2008)
The car chases are exciting, the fight scenes hugely entertaining... and [Jason] Statham even handles Frank's emotional side with a sharp-edged style.

Bedtime Stories (2008)
Bedtime Stories is undoubtedly one for the kids but, with its bright and breezy tone and old-fashioned, inoffensive charm, it may well win over a few of their parents too.

X-Men Origins - Wolverine (2009)
Toothy, energetic and wild, X-Men Origins: Wolverine may not live up to high fan expectations, but it's entertaining enough to tempt new viewers to the franchise.

Star Trek (2009)

Helen (2008)
Earnest in intent but shaky in delivery, Helen is a film whose execution just can't live up to the strong ideas behind it.

Angels & Demons (2009)
[U]nsurprisingly, [Angels & Demons] treads much the same path as its predecessor; it's very long, very melodramatic and very middle-of-the-road.

Synecdoche, New York (2008)
[W]ith Synecdoche, New York Charlie Kaufman has most certainly turned in one of the most beautifully realised, exquisitely made films of the year. Simply put, it's astonishing.

Mulberry Street (2007)

Frost/Nixon (2008)
As these two men slowly but surely change the face of both television and politics, so Frost/Nixon develops into a beautifully crafted, expertly handled drama of the highest order.

Awaydays (2009)

Tormented (2009)

Valkyrie (2008)
If you can leave you incredulity at the door, however, Valkyrie isn't all bad. The large ensemble cast are excellent, even if they are speaking in a variety of accents.
