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.

Baby Mama
Date Location
When her doctor bluntly tells her that he 'doesn't like the shape' of her uterus, Kate (Fey) engages the surrogate services of baby mama Angie Ostowist (Poehler), a trailer trash Gwen Stefani-wannabe. Each generation gets the Mary Tyler Moore it deserves; as creator and star of NBC's '30 Rock' sitcom, Fey has earned herself the right to be 2008's funny-girl.
25 Jul–31 Jul 11.00am & 1.40 Showcase Cinema, Coatbridge, Glasgow

The Bank Job (Senior Screening)
Date Location
Roger 'Cocktail' Donaldson's low-key thriller uses the purportedly true story of a 70s heist, with Stratham as used-car dealer Terry, whose clean getaway is impeded by Jamaican drug-lords, seedy pornographer Lew Vogel (David Suchet) and British establishment lackey Miles Urquhart (Peter Bowles). The tension mounts but with slack scripting and a descent into cliché, the film ultimately plays out as a frustratingly lightweight game of cops and robbers.
29 Jul Tue 11.00am Odeon At The Quay, Glasgow
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.

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.
25 Jul–31 Jul Fri 1.30 & 6.00; Sat & Thu 1.30 & 6.15; Sun 5.15; Mon 1.30; Tue 6.15; Wed 3.45 & 8.15 Glasgow Film Theatre, Glasgow
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 10.00am, 10.30am, 12.00, 12.30, 1.30, 2.00, 3.40, 4.10, 5.10, 5.40, 7.30, 8.00, 8.30, 8.50 & 9.15; Fri & Sat 10.00am, 10.30am, 12.00, 12.30, 1.30, 2.00, 3.40, 4.10, 5.10, 5.40, 7.30, 8.00, 8.30, 8.50, 9.15, 11.15, 11.45 & 11.55 Cineworld Renfrew Street, Glasgow

29 Jul–31 Jul Tue & Thu 12.00 Odeon At The Quay, Glasgow
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.
25 Jul–31 Jul 6.50 Cineworld Renfrew Street, Glasgow
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'.
25 Jul–31 Jul 10.00am & 12.40 Cineworld Renfrew Street, Glasgow
25 Jul–31 Jul 11.00am Showcase Cinema, Coatbridge, Glasgow
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.

Irina Palm
Date Location
Maggie (Faithful) is desperate. In her mid 50s and struggling with preconceptions that she is too old to do anything, until she wanders into a seedy Soho club and winds up being hired to give relief to men through a glory hole. While there is some humour in how this premise is handled (no pun intended), the film can't decide whether it's a sex comedy or a serious social commentary.
25 Jul–29 Jul Fri & Mon 4.15 & 8.40; Sat 2.00 & 6.30; Sun 2.45; Tue 12.45 Glasgow Film Theatre, Glasgow
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.
25 Jul–31 Jul 10.15am, 12.40, 3.10, 5.40 & 8.10; Fri & Sat 10.15am, 12.40, 3.10, 5.40, 8.10 & 10.40 Cineworld Renfrew Street, Glasgow

Kismat Konnection
Date Location
Bollywood flick about life, luck and, of course, love.
27 Jul–28 Jul Sun 11.50am; Mon 8.15 Cineworld Renfrew Street, Glasgow
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 11.20am, 11.50am, 2.10, 2.40, 4.40, 5.10, 7.05 & 9.25; Fri & Sat 11.20am, 11.50am, 2.10, 2.40, 4.40, 5.10, 7.05, 9.25 & 11.40 Showcase Cinema, Coatbridge, Glasgow

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.

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.
25 Jul–31 Jul 8.40 Cineworld Parkhead, Glasgow
25 Jul–31 Jul 9.10 Cineworld Renfrew Street, Glasgow
Money Hai Toh Honey Hai
Date Location
Bollywood musical comedy about six strangers who are informed they have won shares in a company.
25 Jul–31 Jul 4.45 & 8.30 Odeon At The Quay, Glasgow
My Best Fiend
Date Location
Schizophrenic, cowardly, intolerant and frenetically violent, Klaus Kinski was all these things. But he was also one of the finest actors of his generation and the burning heart of Herzog's best films: 'Aguirre - Wrath Of God', 'Woyseck', 'Fitzcarraldo' and 'Nosferatu'. 'My Best Fiend' is Herzog's affectionate goodbye letter to his old friend and frequent enemy who died in 1991.
27 Jul Sun 7.30 Glasgow Film Theatre, Glasgow
Nim's Island
Date Location
Adapted from Wendy Orr's popular book about what happens when agoraphobic authoress Alexandra Ryder (Foster) is contacted by winsome brat Nim (Breslin), whose scientist father Jack (Butler) has gone missing. Breslin and Butler adapt well to the frothy postmodern adventure but Foster's attempts at slapstick are embarrassingly crude and obvious, lessening any emotional impact.
25 Jul–31 Jul 11.00am Odeon At The Quay, Glasgow
Noise
Date Location
A young Melbourne cop finds his relationship slipping away due to frequent late nights spent working on a murder case. With a community beset by doubt and a young man steadily losing grip with normality, Saville's debut feature works at once as a wry meditation on contemporary Australian life and as a tense relationship drama.
29 Jul Tue 6.15 Glasgow Film Theatre, Glasgow
Paris
Date Location
Duris plays Pierre, a young dancer whose future is suddenly left hanging in the balance by a medical diagnosis; Binoche is his unfulfilled sister, taking a career break to care for him. A warm human drama from the director of 'Pot Luck' and 'Russian Dolls'.
25 Jul–31 Jul Fri, Sat, Mon & Thu 3.30 & 8.15; Sun 2.30 & 7.15; Tue 1.30 & 8.15; Wed 1.00 & 5.30 Glasgow Film Theatre, Glasgow
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 8.30 Cineworld Renfrew Street, Glasgow
Smiley Face
Date Location
After 2004's 'Mysterious Skin', Araki's latest is something of a departure. Faris is Jane, an out-of-work actress who fills her days with getting high and little else. After erroneously eating an entire batch of dope-filled cupcakes, Jane ventures out into the world on a drug-fuelled odyssey that can only end in disaster.
30 Jul–31 Jul Wed 8.40; Thu 6.45 Glasgow Film Theatre, Glasgow
Step Up 2 the Streets
Date Location
Stupid sequel to 2006's dance romancer 'Step Up'.
26 Jul–27 Jul Sat & Sun 10.20am Grosvenor, Glasgow
Summer Hours (L'Heure d'ete)
Date Location
It's the 75th birthday of widowed matriarch Helene, and attending the celebrations are her three children, grandchildren and elderly housekeeper, who must decide collectively what to do with their artistic inheritance when Helene passes away soon after. Not tied down to a conventional three-act structure, the film's themes emerge naturally from the drama.

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.

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.

Written On The Wind
Date Location
A fine film and one of Hollywood's best ever melodramas. Four characters connected to a Texan oil family act on their passions rather than their intellects as love and desire concoct a tempestuous mix leading to tragedy. A prototype soap opera, but incisive in its criticism on the middle-class and notions of masculinity.
