The Adventures of Tintin: Secret of the Unicorn
Date Location
(4 stars) After buying a replica model ship at a flea market, Tintin (Bell) is embroiled in a world of subterfuge. Not since Indy's third outing has Spielberg felt so fresh and unshackled; it feels like a hark back to the heyday of 1980s adventure cinema.

Akira
Date Location
(5 stars) Based on the multi-volume graphic novel by Otomo, Akira is a mythical, futuristic tale of post-holocaust Tokyo, where pill-popping biker kids begin to unearth a government project designed to exploit the psychic and telekinetic powers of a group of laboratory-bound children. Superbly animated, with a fantastic visual and narrative imagination, but you'd be well advised to know something of the plot before you see it.

Aliens
Date Location
(5 stars) Revived from a 57-year snooze in deep space, Warrant Officer Weaver is cajoled into joining a marine rescue mission to the planet that is home for the original alien beastie. Unrelentingly paced with a terrifically gutsy performance from Weaver, this nerve-shredding sequel not only matches its predecessor but cannily surpasses it. An Oscar winner for special effects.

(3 stars) East is East writer Ayub Khan-Din adapts his own play (itself based on a story by Bill Naughton) about a British-Asian newly-married couple (Ritchie, Karan) whose intrusive family continually hinders them from having sex for the first time.

American Reunion
Date Location
(3 stars) The American Pie gang have a 13-year reunion and contemplate some familiar problems about love, sex and intimacy. A fun nostalgia trip that rates the heart as important as the other bodily parts; the original cast are as likable (or not) as ever. Nothing very revelatory but plenty of laughs.

An American Tail
Date Location
(3 stars) In the late 19th century, the Mousekewitz family makes its way from trouble-torn Russia to a new life in America, but they find the streets of New York are not all paved with gold. A wealth of background detail displays Bluth's admirably painstaking approach to animation, but the foreground narrative, often agreeably perilous, does occasionally reek of sentimentality.

Date Location
(3 stars) Angèle (Hesme) starts a relationship with fisherman Tony (Gadebois) as a result of a personal ad; it seems doomed from the start, but a connection of sorts develops.

Annie Hall
Date Location
Two decades before Sex And The City had its first orgasm, Annie Hall was laying bare the mores of modern, urban romance to devastating effect while also zoning in on the specific psyche of Allen Konigsberg: anti-Semitic paranoia, metaphysical angst, the search for true love. There's a highly charged on-screen electricity between Allen and Keaton, glorious vistas of the old New York and hilarious set pieces – Alvy fighting with lobsters, the scene of his childhood home below the rollercoaster…

Thoughts from Bono, Metallica, Lou Reed and others, together with footage taken on the set of The American, starring George Clooney, fill out a portrait of a sensitive and reticent artist. 'A thoughtful film that is as much an homage to the creative process as it is a tribute to a man'. (Jessica Kiang, IndieWire).
