Adulthood
Date Location
In the sequel to 2006's 'Kidulthood' troubled toughie Sam's (Clarke) London-based inner-city struggles continue on his release from prison. Essentially a vanity project for star/director/writer Clarke (best known as Rose's boyfriend in 'Doctor Who'), his authentic portrayal of contemporary youth and some neat visual tricks ensure he leaves an undeniably impressive calling card.

Cassandra's Dream
Date Location
Cockney brothers Ian (Ewan) and Terry (Farrell) find themselves in serious financial difficulty. Their solution is kill a man for money but the repercussions of the act soon overcome their close relationship. Allen's third London-set film is a confused embarrassment of quaint olde English observation, bad accents, sub Dostoevsky tragedy and out-of-place Mike Leigh-style naturalism. Some decent scenes aside this is something of a nadir in Allen's later work.

The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian
Date Location
In the second instalment of the Narnia films, the Pevensie children are summoned back to Narnia for a slick, fast-paced romp through dark woods, underground caverns and fierce battles. With a simplistic plot, and Caspian (Barnes) reduced to a pretty face, Disney may have finally brought Narnia to the big screen, but for a real journey of the imagination, stick to the books.

Dundee Mountain Film Festival
Date Location
A weekend of the best of mountain culture with adventure films, world-class presenters, a trade show and art exhibition.
26 Nov–30 Nov (Times vary) Bonar Hall, Dundee
The Forbidden Kingdom
Date Location
Chop-socky superstars Jackie Chan and Jet Li share the screen for the first time in this East-meets-West martial arts adventure in which a kung fu obsessed American teen makes a discovery that sends him on a quest to China to free the imprisoned Monkey King. Think 'Karate Kid' crossed with 'Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon'.
9 Jul10 Jul Wed & Thu 6.00 Odeon Dundee, Dundee
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.

Hancock (Parent & Baby Screening)
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 Hancock¹s public image from zero to hero.
8 Jul Tue 12.30 Odeon Dundee, Dundee
The Host (Gwoemul)
Date Location
With a radioactive substance in the water supply, a huge monster fish and imminent disaster, this likeable Godzilla-style monster is a satisfactory mix of state of the art CGI effects and warm characterisation. Attention to detail, absurdity and comic touches deliver the big climax and the big laughs.
8 Jul Tue 6.15 Dundee Contemporary Arts, Dundee
I Served the King of England
Date Location
Lavishly indulgent paean to food, flesh and fierce ambition. 'Part of the Edinburgh International Film Festival 2007'.

In Which We Serve
Date Location
The experiences of a WWII destroyer and its crew are revisited after the ship has been sunk. The tale is told through flashbacks highlighting in particular the effects of bombardment on community spirit.
7 Jul10 Jul Mon 1.00 & 6.15; Tue 3.35 & 8.55; Thu 6.15 Dundee Contemporary Arts, Dundee
The Incredible Hulk
Date Location
Five years after Ang Lee's 'Hulk' commercially flopped, Leterrier ditches cerebral musing for all-out action and little else. The sequel finds Dr Bruce Banner (Norton) hiding from the American military, reunited with lover Betty Ross (Tyler) and pursued by her father, General Thunderbolt Ross (William Hurt). Disappointingly dumb, this Hulk is anything but incredible.
4 Jul10 Jul Fri–Thu 11.45am Odeon Dundee, Dundee
Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull
Date Location
It's 1957, the Soviets have replaced the Nazis as the biggest set of thugs on the planet and Jones (Ford) has returned for his most outlandisih adventure yet. Russian baddie Spalko (Blanchett) is out to trick the hero into uncovering the secrets of a mythical crystal, a challenge which proves that the old dog still has a few new tricks.
4 Jul10 Jul Fri–Tue 11.30am, 2.30 & 6.00; Wed & Thu 11.30am & 2.30 Odeon Dundee, Dundee
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'.
4 Jul10 Jul 11.00am, 12.05, 1.15, 2.15, 3.30, 4.30, 5.45, 6.45 & 8.00 Cineworld Dundee, Dundee

Mere Baap Pehle Aap
Date Location
Remake of the Malayalam hit 'Ishtam'.
4 Jul7 Jul Mon 7.30; Fri & Sat 10.50 Cineworld Dundee, Dundee
Persepolis
Date Location
This adaptation of Satrapi's autobiographical coming-of-age graphic novel is an exceptionally moving piece of animated filmmaking. Chronicling the liberal outlook of young Iranian Marji, Satrapi refreshingly manages to portray a love of Iran without being revisionist or disguising any harsh truths about the regime.
8 Jul Tue 8.30 Odeon Dundee, Dundee
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.
4 Jul9 Jul Fri–Wed 8.00 Odeon Dundee, Dundee
Shrek the Third
Date Location
The green ogre (voiced by Myers) runs away from parental and royal responsibility to go on a journey with loyal companions Donkey (Murphy) and Puss in Boots (Banderas) to seek out another heir to the throne (Timberlake). The third instalment of this blockbuster phenomenon feels a bit formulaic now but there are enough low-brow jokes to keep under educated children entertained.
4 Jul10 Jul 11.00am Odeon Dundee, Dundee
Summer Holiday
Date Location
Cliff and his mates embark on a road trip across Europe in a converted double decker bus, picking up a girl masquerading as a boy along the way, for a whirlwind trip of cheesy musical numbers and a choregraphed love affair.
5 Jul10 Jul Sat–Thu 1.00 Dundee Contemporary Arts, Dundee
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.
