2/5
 
" It feels like a spoof, yet this documentary, which follows the fortunes of a monumentally rubbish Iraqi band called Acrassicauda, is for real." -- This is London

Heavy Metal In Baghdad (2008)81%
/
3/5
 
" RocknRolla did not leave me wanting more (the last shot promises a sequel is on its way). Still, its confidence is impressive. London’s property bubble may have burst but Ritchie’s career is definitely on the rise." -- This is London

3/5
 
" In fact, Lopez deserves praise for pushing this project. The recently deceased Puchi (who helped generate the script and pushed for Lopez to play her) is not the kind of character you see on screen every day." -- This is London

El Cantante (2007)24%

4/5
 
" He has tried to make Georgiana’s quest for independence — her attempt to gain power via the media and the Whigs — just as gritty. Against the odds, he mostly succeeds." -- This is London

The Duchess (2008)62%

1/5
 
" One day someone will make a film about a lone-wolf killer who gets offered One Last Job, turns it down, retires rich and lives happily ever after." -- This is London

3/5
 
" A good-looking, sophisticated, if somewhat pointless addition to the slasher-horror genre." -- This is London

" Dude, the film so totally happens to be great." -- This is London

2/5
 
" French director Mathieu Kassovitz was once touted as the next Scorsese, thanks to his gritty debut, La Haine. Alas, this action-adventure epic suggests he has settled for being a Hollywood wannabe." -- This is London

Babylon A.D. (2008)7%

4/5
 
" A week is a long time in cinema. Last Friday saw Branagh being all but written off thanks to the ludicrous Sleuth. This week, he's hitting the high notes." -- This is London

4/5
 
" Let's avoid such extremes, and note merely that he's made a film that's funny ha-ha as well as funny peculiar; an exercise in navel-gazing that tickles all the senses." -- This is London

The Nines (2007)70%

" This ultra-hyped adaptation of the ultra-successful Helen Fielding novel sends you out with a smile on your face." -- Time Out

Bridget Jones' Diary (2001)80%

" Much of the best dialogue, you suspect, was improvised by Tucker and Chan, who seem truly taken with each other and make a delightful, ordinary-extraordinary pair." -- Time Out

Out for Justice (1991)21%

" The use of Plowright as a middle-aged frump wanting to get in on the sexy action is deeply patronizing." -- Time Out

Dance With Me (1998)46%
