Review of Chatroom (2010)

By Sam Bathe (186) for Fan The Fire (489) on 07 Dec 2010

Review of Legend of the Fist: The Return of Chen Zhen (2010)

By Sam Bathe (186) for Fan The Fire (489) on 07 Dec 2010

It's watchable, certainly, but it lacks anything to really draw you in and certainly won't blow you away like some of Chen Zhen's previous…

Review of Rare Exports: A Christmas Tale (2010)

By Martin Roberts (187) for Fan The Fire (489) on 07 Dec 2010

Review of Brighton Rock (2010)

Review of Howl (2010)

By Nick Deigman (49) for Fan The Fire (489) on 07 Dec 2010

Review of The Next Three Days (2010)

By Martin Roberts (187) for Fan The Fire (489) on 07 Dec 2010

The restaurant-set introduction is a little clunky, and it may be a little overlong (with too many supporting characters), but overall Haggis…

Review of It's Kind of a Funny Story (2010)

By Nick Deigman (49) for Fan The Fire (489) on 07 Dec 2010

In the end, the title of the film contains an irony that may be lost on the filmmakers: this is kind of a funny story, no more, no less…

Review of Catfish (2010)

By Nick Deigman (49) for Fan The Fire (489) on 07 Dec 2010

The real draw of the film is obviously based around the revelations at Abby's farm; but I don't want to spoil the surprise, so just go and…

Review of Never Let Me Go (2010)

By Nick Deigman (49) for Fan The Fire (489) on 07 Dec 2010

Mulligan is the lynchpin of this film; her doe-eyed softness and melancholy smile perfectly encapsulating our heroine…

Review of Unstoppable (2010)

By Sam Bathe (186) for Fan The Fire (489) on 24 Nov 2010

Unstoppable isn't a bad film per-se, but it's a by the numbers thriller that isn't remotely thrilling, and will do very well indeed to make…

By Martin Roberts (187) for Fan The Fire (489) on 15 Nov 2010

Exposition heavy, Potter 7: Part One is an entertaining but flawed prelude to the real finale…

Review of Another Year (2010)

By Nick Deigman (49) for Fan The Fire (489) on 10 Nov 2010

Another Year is filled with hilarious quirks and moments that punctuate the melancholy of Mary and Ken's loneliness and promise that, no matter…

Review of The American (2010)

By Nick Deigman (49) for Fan The Fire (489) on 10 Nov 2010

The 'lonely assassin who falls in love' is too familiar a story to be interesting in its own right, and somewhere along the line Corbijn, Clooney,…

Review of 127 Hours (2010)

By Nick Deigman (49) for Fan The Fire (489) on 10 Nov 2010

Combining elements of a 'music video' aesthetic with subtle, intimate moments and epic John Ford vistas, Boyle never gives the audience a moment…

Review of We Are What We Are (2010)

By Martin Roberts (187) for Fan The Fire (489) on 10 Nov 2010

In the final third the pace quickens, building toward a well staged climax that at least allows the film to bow out on a high…

Review of Somewhere (2010)

By Nick Deigman (49) for Fan The Fire (489) on 10 Nov 2010

Review of Due Date (2010)

By Sam Bathe (186) for Fan The Fire (489) on 02 Nov 2010
