Puss in Boots
Date	Location
Puss (Banderas) and Humpty Dumpty (Galifianakis) attempt to steal magic beans from Jack and Jill, with Hayek as feline accomplice Kitty Softpaws. Given the slackening quality of the Shrek franchise, the surprise is that this imaginative romp was one of the 2011's best animated family films. View full details

The Raid
Date	Location
An Indonesian SWAT team storms a Jakarta tower block intending to take down crime lord Tama (Sahetapy), but finds itself trapped.

Safe
Date	Location
Luke Wright (Statham), suicidal ex-cop-turned-cage-fighter, is about to jump in front of a train when he befriends Mei (Chan), Chinese schoolgirl and math genius who knows how to access a fortune. Generic villains and excessive body count can't tarnish Statham's likable machismo and the unstoppable energy of the action scenes. A guilty pleasure. View full details

Superman
Date	Location
Enjoyable but now very dated first outing for Reeve as Superman. This franchise did get better before it got worse but this is still great fun. View full details
17 Jun 8pm	Scotsman Screening Room, Edinburgh

Titanic
Date	Location
Cameron tackles the story of the doomed ocean liner through a touching love story that isn't overwhelmed by the awesome special effects. Rich girl Rose (Winslet) is unhappily engaged to arrogant Cal (Zane) but falls for third-class passenger Jack (DiCaprio). Love blossoms as the ship hits an iceberg in the North Atlantic, conveying both the scale of the disaster and the feeling of claustrophobia as the water rises. View full details
25 May–31 May (3D) Fri–Thu 2.55pm & 7.20pm	Odeon Leicester Square, London WC2H
31 May 11am	Cineworld Cardiff, Cardiff

Top Gun
Date	Location
Say what you like about him, Scott undoubtedly has the golden touch at the box office. This emotionless formula adventure about men being grandly upstaged by very fast, very expensive and very dangerous aircraft, with the splendid Ms McGillis thrown for love interest, made a fortune, especially in the US. It had to be those planes, or maybe the rampant 'America the strong' ethos of the film, because it doesn't have much more to offer. View full details
5 Jun 6.45pm	Sloans, Glasgow

Touchez Pas au Grisbi

Gabin's career was resurrected post-war by this turn as an underworld godfather pushed into doing one last job. View full details
