Review of Magic Trip: Ken Kesey's Search for a Kool Place (2011)

By Sam Bathe (186) for Fan The Fire (489) on 21 Nov 2011

Not exploring the Merry Pranksters wider cultural influence and historical significance is a great misstep…

Review of Seeking Justice (2011)

By Sam Bathe (186) for Fan The Fire (489) on 21 Nov 2011

Without the ambition to ever do anything more, Justice is a lacklustre, low-grade thriller that you'd be disappointed by had it not set its…

Review of The Help (2011)

By Martin Roberts (187) for Fan The Fire (489) on 11 Nov 2011

This is a generally family-friendly affair which isn't interested in getting its hands too dirty…

Review of Immortals (2011)

By Martin Roberts (187) for Fan The Fire (489) on 10 Nov 2011

Underwritten, dramatically shallow and visually disappointing; unlike the myths on which it is based, Immortals will be quickly forgotten…

Review of In Time (2011)

By Martin Roberts (187) for Fan The Fire (489) on 01 Nov 2011

There are some nice ideas thrown around, and the film works as an analogy (albeit it a heavy-handed one) for modern society's staggeringly…

Review of The Awakening (2011)

By Martin Roberts (187) for Fan The Fire (489) on 24 Oct 2011

While it is not a stand out in its genre, it overcomes the odd dose of over-familiarity with confident filmmaking and some technical flair…

Review of The Awakening (2010)

Review of Everything Must Go (1996)

By Andrew Simpson (34) for Fan The Fire (489) on 20 Oct 2011

For a film that preaches giving it all away, Everything Must Go could have done with being a little more bold…

Review of Sleeping Beauty (2011)

By Sam Bathe (186) for Fan The Fire (489) on 20 Oct 2011

Considering that the lead character is near naked for almost half the film, it's remarkable just how unprovocative Julia Leigh's debut Sleeping…

Review of Real Steel (2011)

By Martin Roberts (187) for Fan The Fire (489) on 20 Oct 2011

The script doesn't do enough with the father-son element to keep us involved, and the CGI robot fights aren't sufficiently exciting to make…

Review of Contagion (2011)

By Sam Bathe (186) for Fan The Fire (489) on 20 Oct 2011

In the end it feels a little like a Fincher wannabee, rather than boasting its an identity in itself…

Review of The Adventures of Tintin (2011)

By Martin Roberts (187) for Fan The Fire (489) on 16 Oct 2011

Spielberg's opening foray into the timeless world of Hergé's amiable hero does enough to whet our appetite for a second, even if it's far…

Review of Abduction (2011)

By Sam Bathe (186) for Fan The Fire (489) on 14 Oct 2011

At not a single point in this movie is anyone abducted…

Review of 50/50 (2011)

By Sam Bathe (186) for Fan The Fire (489) on 04 Oct 2011

Swapping out the usual relationship tangle for a cancer-centric plot, 50/50 feels like this year's (500) Days Of Summer…

Review of Tyrannosaur (2011)

By Martin Roberts (187) for Fan The Fire (489) on 04 Oct 2011

At times it feels a little over-familiar, but this is a confident first feature…

Review of Drive (2011)

By Sam Bathe (186) for Fan The Fire (489) on 04 Oct 2011

The film treats the audience with intelligence; it doesn't lay everything out and instead leaves you to do a little legwork too…

Review of Crazy, Stupid, Love. (2011)

By Sam Bathe (186) for Fan The Fire (489) on 04 Oct 2011

Crazy, Stupid, Love sees directors John Requa and Glenn Ficarra very quickly building a name for themselves, able to again craft an honest…

Review of The Debt (2010)

By Sam Bathe (186) for Fan The Fire (489) on 04 Oct 2011
