" Possibly the beginning of a new direction for the brothers, The Silence Of Lorna gathers force slowly and deliberately, yet lacks the intimacy of the directors' earlier films." -- Channel 4 Film

" For anyone interested in the life and work of Lindsay Anderson, however, and indeed the British New Wave more generally, Never Apologize is an illuminating piece of film." -- Channel 4 Film

" An amiable but essentially empty film made enjoyable by a decent soundtrack, funny dialogue and Ben Kingsley's mad doctor." -- Channel 4 Film

3/5
 
" A beautiful and ambitious film flawed by its dogged determination to cast Genghis Khan in a new light, the best that can be hoped is that Mongol provides a stage for better things in the forthcoming films." -- Channel 4 Film

" A strong drama clearly dedicated to exploring its real life events, if not hugely memorable in its own right." -- Channel 4 Film

" Well acted and all the more engaging for having been based on a true story, ultimately Black Water lacks teeth." -- Channel 4 Film

3/5
 
" With a strong performance from Isabelle Carré, Anna M. is an entertaining film, but it is also confused and slight, and like its anti-heroine, is in need of a firmer grip on reality." -- Channel 4 Film

3/5
 
" A penchant for silliness and a tabloid-ready storyline mean The Serpent is a decent thriller that loses some of its impact as it unfolds, but remains a well-paced and enjoyable film." -- Channel 4 Film

2/5
 
" A muzak rendition of Take That's 'Back For Good' plays over the montage that ends the film. It seems a fittingly empty conclusion to a story that never really engages with its audience." -- Channel 4 Film

" We are the checks and balances on government, and while a slightly more restrained, finessed film may have carried that message more effectively, Taking Liberties will inspire many viewers to reconsider their responsibilities and those of their government" -- Channel 4 Film
