The Accidental Husband (Senior Screening)
Date Location
Talk radio host Emma Lloyd (Thurman) advises one of her listeners to dump her fireman fiancée days before their wedding. Jilted ex Patrick (Morgan) decides to get his revenge on the radio host and her posh, dull husband-to-be Richard (Firth) with comic and romantic results. Solid, likeably old-fashioned romantic comedy with decent performances and a simple predictable script that never overreaches itself.
20 May Tue 11.00am Odeon At The Quay, Glasgow
Alien Adventure 3D
Date Location
An alien race looking for a planet to colonise find earth and unfortunately enter a theme park where they cause much amusing mayhem.
16 May–18 May Fri–Sun 12.15 IMAX Theatre, Glasgow
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).
17 May Sat 10.00am Cineworld Parkhead, Glasgow
Azur and Asmar: The Princes' Quest
Date Location
Childhood buddies Azur and Asmar become rivals and enemies in a medieval Maghreb. With the action taking place in North African Islamic architecture and over-populated bazaars, the colourful palatte of the animation and 'Arabian Nights'-style storyline is a welcome throwback to the days before Pixar tore up the rulebook. A compassionate and mature film based on classic legends rather than popular culture.
17 May–18 May Sat & Sun 10.30am Grosvenor, Glasgow
Bhoothnath
Date Location
Bollywood presentation.
16 May–22 May 4.45 & 8.15; Sat & Sun 1.15, 4.45 & 8.15; Thu 8.30 Odeon At The Quay, Glasgow
Caramel
Date Location
Charming, bitter-sweet debut feature from writer-director Labaki that centres upon the 'Si Belle' beauty parlour in the Lebanese capital and the dramas of the female clientele. The film is impressively acted by a mostly non-professional cast. While there are no references to the on-going strife in Lebanon, this is still a political film, and a tender tribute to female solidarity.
16 May–22 May Fri & Sat 12.30, 3.00, 5.40, 8.00 & 10.30; 12.30, 3.00, 5.40 & 8.00 Cineworld Renfrew Street, Glasgow

Caramel (Subtitled)
Date Location

The film is impressively acted by a mostly non-professional cast.

18 May–21 May Sun 1.30; Wed 6.00 Glasgow Film Theatre, Glasgow
Charlie Bartlett
Date Location
Charlie's a joker who manufactures fake IDs and deals his prescribed anti-depression drugs to his classmates, craving popularity to compensate for a fractured family life. Whilst robbed of any wider social resonance, this is an amusing enough take on the agonies of youth, and 'Charlie Bartlett' deserves a B+ for effort.
16 May–22 May Fri & Sat 10.40am, 1.20, 4.00, 6.40, 9.20 & 11.50; 10.40am, 1.20, 4.00, 6.40 & 9.20 Cineworld Renfrew Street, Glasgow

16 May–22 May Fri–Sun 1.15; Mon–Thu 12.15 & 2.30 IMAX Theatre, Glasgow
Doomsday
Date Location
In Marshall's derivative but enjoyable dystopian fantasy, Scotland 50 years on is a no-man's land ravaged by disease, cut off from England, and presided over by gangs of cannibals. This may well provide a few guilty pleasures for jaded action fans, but non-genre fans will find this about as subtle as a nail-encrusted club in the face
16 May–22 May Fri & Sat 10.20am, 1.00, 3.45, 6.20, 9.20 & 11.50; 10.20am, 1.00, 3.45, 6.20 & 9.20 Cineworld Renfrew Street, Glasgow

The Empire Exhibition 1938: Films in Scotland
Date Location
A rare screening of seven of the documentaries sponsored by the Films of Scotland Committee and produced primarily for the 1938 Empire Exhibition. The purpose of these films was to promote Scotland both nationally and internationally.
18 May Sun 6.00 Glasgow Film Theatre, Glasgow
Even Dwarfs Started Small
Date Location
Herzog's brilliantly bizarre parable about a remote penal colony inhabited by dwarfs, who stage a revolution in the prison warden's absence. This has to be seen to be believed, unmissable.
21 May Wed 6.15 Glasgow Film Theatre, Glasgow
The Eye
Date Location
Alba (in one of her better performances) stars as a blind concert violinist who becomes haunted by terrifying supernatural visions once a corneal transplant restores her sight. Yet another Asian horror remake, this does contain some disturbing imagery early on but sticks too closely to formula and brings no new focus to the genre.
16 May–22 May Fri & Sat 11.10am, 1.55, 4.45, 7.20, 9.55 & 0.05am; 11.10am, 1.55, 4.45, 7.20 & 9.55; Thu 9.15 Showcase Cinema, Coatbridge, Glasgow
16 May–21 May Fri & Sat 2.40, 8.00 & 10.30; 2.40 & 8.00 Cineworld Renfrew Street, Glasgow
Forgetting Sarah Marshall
Date Location
Writer and star Segal is Peter Bretter, a composer who gets dumped by his soap star girlfriend Sarah Marshall (Bell). Heading to Hawaii he bumps into her and her new rock star boyfriend Aldous Snow (Brand), who steals the show in an otherwise predictable and grating romantic comedy.
16 May–22 May Fri & Sat 11.15am, 2.00, 4.35, 7.15, 9.50 & 0.20am; 11.15am, 2.00, 4.35, 7.15 & 9.50 Showcase Cinema, Coatbridge, Glasgow

16 May–21 May 1.45 & 6.45 Cineworld Parkhead, Glasgow
16 May–22 May 3.15, 6.15 & 9.00; Thu 12.30, 3.15, 6.15 & 9.00 Odeon At The Quay, Glasgow
4 Months, 3 Weeks and 2 Days
Date Location
Mungiu's impressively acted new feature explores a long, dark night of the soul in late 1980s Romania, unfolding towards the end of Nicolae Ceausescu's dictatorship, in which a poor college student has become pregnant and decided to seek an illegal abortion, performed by a hired doctor in a hotel room. '4 Months, 3 Weeks and 2 Days' is a gripping portrayal of survival under a totalitarian regime.
20 May Tue 9.15 Odeon At The Quay, Glasgow
Future Shorts
Date Location
25 May, 29 Jun, 27 Jul 6.30 The Arches, Glasgow
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.
17 May–18 May Sat & Sun 11.00am Odeon At The Quay, Glasgow
Glasgow International Bike Film Festival: Seasons/Home
Date Location
The inaugural Glasgow Bike Film Festival freewheels into town, aiming to bring together some of the finest filmmakers at work today and capture the excitement and spectacle of all aspects of the genre. Following seven of the world's most accomplished riders through four seasons of the year, this screening of 'Seasons' will have something for every biker. This will be preceded by a screening of 'Home', featuring Scotland's World Champion rider Ruaridh Cunningham.
16 May–22 May Wed 8.15 Glasgow Film Theatre, Glasgow
Happy-Go-Lucky
Date Location
Leigh returns with a familiar, yet reassuringly different film, an affectionate portrait of carefree 30-something Londoner Poppy (Hawkins) and the minutiae of her everyday life. About everything and nothing, the downtime and the uptime, this is life-affirming stuff.
16 May–21 May 12.00 & 5.20 Cineworld Renfrew Street, Glasgow
Honeydripper
Date Location
It's 1950 in rural Alabama and morally circumspect pianist Tyrone Purvis (Glover) is trying to save the Honeydripper lounge from bankruptcy and his ass from prison. Although this benign and jolly tale is too long and features too many characters, Sayles' ability to spin a good yarn remains undiminished, irreproachable, enviable and all too rare.
16 May–22 May Fri, Sun, Mon & Tue 3.00 & 8.20; Sat 6.00; Wed 2.30 & 8.20; Thu 2.30, 5.50 & 8.20 Glasgow Film Theatre, Glasgow
In Bruges
Date Location
Two gobby Dublin criminals bide their time in Bruges, awating instruction from their cryptic and remote gangster boss Harry. Irish playwright McDonagh, in his feature debut, which wrestles some affecting moments from demonstrative characters, nicely teases out the parallels between the trio and Beckett's Vladimir, Estragon and Godot.
16 May–22 May Fri & Sat 11.00am, 1.35, 4.05, 7.05, 9.40 & 0.10am; 11.00am, 1.35, 4.05, 7.05 & 9.40; Thu 11.00am, 1.35, 4.05, 7.05 & 9.40 Showcase Cinema, Coatbridge, Glasgow
16 May–22 May 12.40, 3.10, 5.50 & 8.30; Thu 3.10 & 8.30 Cineworld Renfrew Street, Glasgow
16 May–21 May 8.30 Odeon At The Quay, Glasgow

Iron Man
Date Location
Performing a perfectly poised balancing act between taking the fantastical material seriously and treating it with a knowing sense of humour, this smart adaptation locates Tony Stark/Iron Man's story of professional irresponsibility and personal redemption firmly within the context of the war on terror. Kidnapped by Afghan insurgents, Iron Man promptly renounces arms manufacture and instead uses his super-powered outfit to right his wrongs.
16 May–22 May Fri & Sat 10.10am, 11.00am, 12.00, 1.00, 2.00, 3.15, 4.30, 5.20, 6.20, 7.45, 8.40, 9.30 & 11.00; Thu 12.00, 3.15, 6.20, 7.45 & 9.30; 10.10am, 11.00am, 12.00, 1.00, 2.00, 3.15, 4.30, 5.20, 6.20, 7.45, 8.40 & 9.30; Mon 10.10am, 11.00am, 12.00, 1.00, 2.00, 3 Cineworld Renfrew Street, Glasgow
