Review of The Band's Visit (2007)

By David Jenkins (910) for Time Out (7,510) on 08 Nov 2007

With its themes of social displacement subtly and skilfully enmeshed within a pleasingly straightforward shaggy-dog narrative, this is one…

Review of Into the Wild (2007)

By David Jenkins (910) for Time Out (7,510) on 08 Nov 2007

The photography is of the sort you'd find in any half decent nature documentary, with cloying emphasis placed firmly (and sometimes clumsily)…

Review of Dracula (1958)

By David Jenkins (910) for Time Out (7,510) on 01 Nov 2007

Christopher Lee's Dracula is a menacing and complex presence who never lets his fangs and cape dominate…

Review of Princess (2006)

By David Jenkins (910) for Time Out (7,510) on 18 Oct 2007

Sure, the rage is palpable in every cell, but poise and rational thinking are sadly lacking…

Review of The Heartbreak Kid (2007)

By David Jenkins (910) for Time Out (7,510) on 04 Oct 2007

The film's best moment by far comes from Eddie's under-the-thumb buddy Mac (Rob Corddry), who advises that the key to a healthy marriage is…

Review of Yella (2007)

By David Jenkins (910) for Time Out (7,510) on 20 Sep 2007

An expertly crafted thriller which offers a pessimistic, though deeply rewarding, glimpse of a society being haunted by its own past…

Review of Death Proof (2007)

By David Jenkins (910) for Little White Lies (3,136) on 20 Sep 2007

A waste of time. A waste of celluloid. A waste of talent…

Review of A Few Days in September (2006)

By David Jenkins (910) for Total Film (3,532) on 13 Sep 2007

An intriguing set-up spoiled by a clever-clever script, Christophe Beaucarne's migraine-inducing cinematography and performances which are…

Review of In the Hands of the Gods (2007)

By David Jenkins (910) for Time Out (7,510) on 13 Sep 2007

The film's teary-eyed conclusion is clearly intended to have you punching the air in elation, but the message it delivers will actually leave…

Review of December Boys (2007)

By David Jenkins (910) for Time Out (7,510) on 13 Sep 2007

With its series of tonally awkward plot developments which seem to have been engineered specifically to meet Radcliffe's various portfolio…

Review of Small Engine Repair (2006)

By David Jenkins (910) for Time Out (7,510) on 06 Sep 2007

It's an admirable first feature from writer-director Niall Heery, but one that never really says anything broader about Irish society or the…

Review of Someone Else (2006)

By David Jenkins (910) for Total Film (3,532) on 06 Sep 2007

Performances and script are both first-rate, but what really rivets is how scarily /familiar/ it all feels, from the listless rebound romances…

Review of Rise of the Footsoldier (2007)

By David Jenkins (910) for Time Out (7,510) on 06 Sep 2007

The direction smacks of sadism, especially the obvious glee Gilbey gets from filming violent scenes in close-up and, in the case of the bloody…

Review of Year of the Dog (2007)

By David Jenkins (910) for Time Out (7,510) on 30 Aug 2007

Though the film falters in terms of its lack of a streamlined narrative, there is no denying that it is packed to the rafters with meaty ideas…

Review of Copying Beethoven (2006)

By David Jenkins (910) for Time Out (7,510) on 16 Aug 2007

The direction from Polish New Waver Agnieszka Holland feels more like she's testing a new camera than attempting to capture the nuances of…

Review of 12:08 East of Bucharest (2006)

By David Jenkins (910) for Total Film (3,532) on 16 Aug 2007

A deadpan delight that offers further proof of Romania's cinematic ascendance…

Review of Transylvania (2006)

By David Jenkins (910) for Total Film (3,532) on 09 Aug 2007

French- Algerian director Tony Gatlif shows great skill in capturing local colour and texture, sourcing a rogues' gallery of memorable images…

Review of Ocean's Thirteen (2007)

By David Jenkins (910) for Time Out (7,510) on 07 Jun 2007

Thematically, though, this is an improvement on its forebears, mainly due to the way it deals - much like Scorsese's best work - with the archaic…

Review of The All Together (2007)

By David Jenkins (910) for Time Out (7,510) on 09 May 2007

What a poorly developed and resiliently stupid piece of work this is…

Review of Porco Rosso (1992)

By David Jenkins (910) for Time Out (7,510) on 29 Apr 2007
