The Dark Knight
Date Location
Following on from Nolan's critically and commercially successful 'Batman Begins', this sequel promises to be bigger and possibly even better in almost every way. Inevitably, though, expect proceedings to be overshadowed by Ledger's final screen role, as Batman's (Bale) arch-nemesis The Joker.

25 Jul–31 Jul 2.30, 5.30 & 8.30 The Belmont, Aberdeen
Journey To The Center of The Earth
Date Location
Enjoyably silly adventure based on the classic Jules Verne novel starring Fraser ('The Mummy') as a science professor whose renegade theories are held in contempt by the academic community. On an expedition in Iceland, he stumbles upon a discovery that is to be the beginning of his journey deep beneath the Earth's surface.
24 Jul, 25 Jul–31 Jul 11.00am & 1.10 Cineworld Aberdeen, Aberdeen
WALL-E
Date Location
Inspired by sci-fi classics from the 1960s and 70s, Pixar have created a post-apocalyptic story set in a future in which the Earth has been abandoned by humankind, where a solitary robot named WALL-E executes his now pointless trash collecting programme. At its heart this is a very sweet romantic comedy, and that's what provides the emotional clout.
24 Jul, 25 Jul–31 Jul 11.00am, 1.30, 3.55, 6.20 & 8.45 Vue Aberdeen, Aberdeen
Hancock
Date Location
Smith plays a nihilistic superhero who has fallen out of favour with the public. Due to this scenario, 'Hancock' dangerously flirts with the status of one-joke film. Amazingly, though, Hancock is then rescued (both as a character and as a film) by PR executive Ray Embrey (Bateman), who believes he can turn Hancock's public image from zero to hero.
24 Jul, 25 Jul–31 Jul 2.55, 6.00, 8.15 & 10.40; Tue 2.55, 8.15 & 10.40 Vue Aberdeen, Aberdeen
25 Jul–31 Jul 1.00, 5.10 & 9.20 Cineworld Aberdeen, Aberdeen
Angus, Thongs and Perfect Snogging
Date Location
After 'Bend it Like Beckham', Chadha takes a step into younger territory with this adaptation of two of Louise Rennison's books. The film lacks the sharp wit of slick American comedies such as 'Clueless' and 'Mean Girls', but earns points for featuring actresses, including lead Georgia Groome, who really are the age of the characters they're playing.
25 Jul–31 Jul 10.00am, 12.15, 2.40, 5.00 & 7.30 Vue Aberdeen, Aberdeen
25 Jul–31 Jul 1.00, 3.30, 6.00 & 8.30 Cineworld Aberdeen, Aberdeen
Sex and the City: The Movie
Date Location
A few years on from packing away the series, the characters are back and fleshed out, the individual angst of each woman realised enough to engage even the hardened cynics. Like life however, the film isn't perfect, the beginning recap is clumsy, the ending is rushed, and the version of feminist power and female solidarity the film peddles is slightly simplistic.
25 Jul–31 Jul Fri, Sat, Sun & Thu 11.40 Vue Aberdeen, Aberdeen
Kung Fu Panda
Date Location
Overweight panda Po (Black) joins his heroes, the Fierce Five, in a butt-kicking adventure when the valley of peace is threatened with the return of bad kung fu master, Tai Lung (McShane). This is Dreamworks-does-manga animation, overlaid with an Eastern version of the fated place-in-the-universe style philosophy originally trademarked in 'The Lion King'.
25 Jul–31 Jul 11.00am, 3.10 & 7.20 Cineworld Aberdeen, Aberdeen
25 Jul–31 Jul 11.20am, 1.50, 4.15 & 6.45 Vue Aberdeen, Aberdeen
25 Jul–31 Jul, 30 Jul Wed 11.00am The Belmont, Aberdeen
Meet Dave
Date Location
Eddie Murphy plays Dave Ming Chang, a spaceship made in the image of its miniature-sized captain (also Murphy) who has landed on Earth on a mission to save his planet. Now, one of the least eagerly anticipated reunions in cinema history - between Murphy and director Brian Robbins ('Norbit') - invites us to Meet Dave. You really shouldn't bother.
25 Jul–31 Jul 10.20am & 12.45; Sun 12.45 Vue Aberdeen, Aberdeen
25 Jul–31 Jul 11.00am Cineworld Aberdeen, Aberdeen
Wanted
Date Location
Scottish comic book writer Mark Millar's ultra-violent graphic novel gets the Hollywood blockbuster treatment. Fellow Scot McAvoy takes the lead as a super-assassin inductee under the tutelage of action babe Fox (Jolie) and boss Sloan (Freeman). Toning down the comic's darker elements and ramping up the SFX, Bekmambetov's quirky stylistic excesses make up for the script's weaknesses. And McAvoy is quite convincing.
25 Jul–31 Jul 9.00; Fri–Sun & Thu 9.00 & 11.50 Vue Aberdeen, Aberdeen
A Complete History of My Sexual Failures
Date Location
Documentary filmmaker Waitt sets out to contact all of his ex-girlfriends, to discover what makes him such a rubbish boyfriend, leading to a trip to Edinburgh. A brisk pace, a desire to bare all (literally) and Chris' very ordinary but anxious humanity makes this slightly insular premise engaging viewing.
24 Jul 9.10 The Belmont, Aberdeen
Mamma Mia! (Subtitled)
Date Location
How can we resist you? Film version of super successful Broadway and West End ABBA song musical starring Streep, Brosnan and Firth.
27 Jul–28 Jul Sun 3.20; Mon 6.00 Cineworld Aberdeen, Aberdeen
The Spiderwick Chronicles
Date Location
Upon moving into the dilapidated Spiderwick Estate, siblings Jared (Highmore), Simon (Highmore) and Mallory (Bulger) find a guide to a fantastical world of faeries and creatures in this adaptation of Holly Black and Tony DiTerlizzi's series. They must battle against Mulgarath, however, the evil shape-shifting ogre who is also after the key to the fantasyland of faeries.
26 Jul Sat 10.00am Cineworld Aberdeen, Aberdeen
Gone Baby Gone
Date Location
Beautiful young girl Amanda (O'Brien) goes missing in Boston and local private investigator Kenzie (Affleck) and his girlfriend are hired for their knowledge of the rundown area. Another raw tale of abuse, pride, poverty and a very particular form of unhinged Massachusetts nobility.
25 Jul–27 Jul Fri–Sun 6.30 The Belmont, Aberdeen
The Mist
Date Location
After a thunderstorm artist David (Jane) heads down to the local supermarket, only to join a small cross-section of the town hemmed indoors by a mysterious mist. Strange noises are heard, gigantic fruit flies emerge, and tentacles appear. At its heart this is pure B Movie, but Darabont imbues everything with such genuine gravity that it's difficult not to be swept along.
24 Jul, 25 Jul–30 Jul 10.00 Vue Aberdeen, Aberdeen
Donkey Punch
Date Location
Tammi (Burley) joins her two girlfriends on a holiday in Mallorca, only to be lured onboard a luxury yacht by some unscrupulous boys. Messy drug taking, DIY porn-making and a series of violent deaths by knife, rope, flare gun and outboard motor follow. A misguided British attempt to muscle in on the already hackneyed torture-porn genre.
24 Jul 9.15; Fri–Sun, Wed & Thu 9.15 & 11.40 Vue Aberdeen, Aberdeen
Meet Dave (Subtitled)
Date Location
Eddie Murphy plays Dave Ming Chang, a spaceship made in the image of its miniature-sized captain (also Murphy) who has landed on Earth on a mission to save his planet.

27 Jul Sun 10.20am Vue Aberdeen, Aberdeen
Ralph Steadman
Date Location
A series of witty etchings of famous authors created by artist and illustrator Ralph Steadman. This exhibition includes images of Virgina Woolf, Samuel Beckett, Hunter S Thompson amongst others. Designed to co-incide with Aberdeen's Word Festival.
19 Apr–26 Jul 10.00am–5.00; Sun 2.00–5.00 Aberdeen Art Gallery, Aberdeen
The Visitor
Date Location
Widower Walter Vale (Jenkins) is a grouch. When work sends him to Manhattan, a series of misunderstandings lead him to form a friendship with Syrian drummer Tarek (Sleiman) and his Senegalese girlfriend Zainab (Gurira). Underwritten and beautifully performed, 'The Visitor' is a sentimental drama that manages to access a hypnotic rhythm that is both convincing and reassuring.
25 Jul–31 Jul 8.50; Mon, Tue & Thu 6.40 & 8.50 The Belmont, Aberdeen
Alvin and the Chipmunks
Date Location
Likeable pre-school comedy featuring a bunch of pint sized chipmunk pop stars and their long-suffering human guardian (Lee).
26 Jul Sat 10.00am Cineworld Aberdeen, Aberdeen
The Game Plan
Date Location
'The Game Plan' follows the fortunes of Elvis-obsessed American football superstar quarterback Joe Kingsman (Johnson) and his estranged eight-year old daughter (Pettis) when she enrols him in ballet school. The result is overblown and overlong, bland and formulaic, yet its earnest brand of character comedy for pre-teens pays off.
26 Jul Sat 10.00am Cineworld Aberdeen, Aberdeen
Hancock (Subtitled)

Smith plays a nihilistic superhero who has fallen out of favour with the public. Due to this scenario, 'Hancock' dangerously flirts with the status of one-joke film.
