Mamma Mia! (Sing-a-Long)
Date Location
A bride-to-be tries to find out the identity of her real father in the lead up to her wedding on a Greek island. Depressingly faithful film adaptation of abominable Broadway and West End ABBA song musical mega hit. The popularity of films like this certainly make one wonder about the rampancy of mental illness in our culture. With subtitled song lyrics to keep your audience participation word-perfect.

RocknRolla
Date Location
Ritchie's story is told with a signature narration and follows the pursuits of a bunch of get-rich-quick, bumbling, loveable rogues who could have walked straight off the set of an Ealing comedy. With trademark flashes of visual panache and humour, it's all perfectly serviceable, but still leaves us guessing over whether Ritchie is just a one-trick pony.

Bangkok Dangerous
Date Location
CGI embellished but much less gritty remake of the Pang Brothers 1999 feature of the same name. Cage once again gets to wear ridiculous clothes and a terrible weave and turn on the laconic charm in this sanitised, tourist friendly remake.

Disaster Movie
Date Location
New spoof comedy from the 'Epic Movie'/'Meet the Spartans' folk. Blockbuster flicks as diverse as the Indiana Jones franchise, 'Iron Man' and 'High School Musical' get lampooned to tedious effect.

The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas
Date Location
Bruno (Butterfield) is the nine-year old son of a Nazi Commandant (Thewlis). When his father is seconded to manage a concentration camp, the lonely Bruno makes a new friend, Schmuel (Scanlon), beyond the high wire. Badly acted and clumsily directed, this liberal-guilt-monger-sweeping-cod-historical-nonsense is simply unnecessary.

The Dark Knight (IMAX)
Date Location
Nolan's revamp of the superhero franchise reaches its apotheosis with this sequel to 'Batman Begins', a supremely well-imagined, perfectly executed film that combines blockbuster spectacle with indie cinema cool and smarts. Psychotic, chaos-loving clown The Joker (Ledger) is introduced as the dark knight's ultimate nemesis and a thrilling battle slowly terrorises the populace of Gotham.

Step Brothers
Date Location
This sporadically funny but generally gross comedy features Brennan (Ferrel) and Dale (Reilly), two grown men who despite pushing 40 are still living at home. An unlikely twilight romance between their parents brings them together, leading the step-brothers to repel each other before teaming up to form an alliance.

The Wackness
Date Location
At the heart of this voyage into nostalgic romanticism and teenage growing pains is an unlikely friendship between teenager Luke (Peck) and pot-smoking psychotherapist Dr Squires (Kingsley). It's the summer before Luke ventures to university and he's struggling to make the transition into adulthood, whilst in total contrast, Squires is regressing into adolescence. A tender and poignant story of cross-generational friendship.

Pineapple Express
Date Location
'Knocked Up' star Rogen returns to play Dale, a permanently-baked legal process-server whose friendly weed-dealer Saul (Franco) sells him a rare strain of cannabis known as 'Pineapple Express'. When Dale accidentally leaves a half-smoked joint at the scene of gangland murder, the pair are forced to go on the run. A loose, freewheeling and highly enjoyable action comedy.

Babylon AD
Date Location
Post apocalyptic thriller with Diesel as Russian mercenary Toorop who is escorting a very special woman (Yeoh) to China. This woman carries inside her the possibility of a spiritual future for all mankind. Silly, derivative and clearly hacked up by the studios, this potentially interesting sci-fi is a frustrating, occasionally interesting affair.

Abba The Movie
Date Location
Made at the height of their popularity, the wafer thin plotline consists of the four Swedes being pursued across Oz by a Sydney journalist. Features a brief, heartstopping appearance by Lou from 'Neighbours' as their bodyguard. No, it really does.

The Strangers
Date Location
Kristen (Tyler) and aspiring beau James (Speedman) retire to a country house to lick their wounds after she rejects his wedding proposal. On arrival, they find themselves teased, tormented and eventually tortured by three unknown assailants.

Hellboy II: The Golden Army
Date Location
Guillermo del Toro returns to Hollywood with a second blockbuster adaptation of Dark Horse Comics' cult supernatural title. A new storyline pits the hell-spawned hero against a mighty mechanised legion of unstoppable warriors. The sequel has more of everything ? monsters, action, humour, character development, supporting cast and mythology ? but it suffers from an overabundance of riches.

Ben X
Date Location
This mock-documentary introduces us to teen Asperger's sufferer Ben. Moving backwards and forwards between his so-called life of bullying and high school torture and his escape into online role playing games, the film delivers a doom laden narrative. Balthazar's debut feature cleverly dodges and ducks where you would otherwise expect it to run straight.

The Pope's Toilet
Date Location
Taking as its premise a visit Pope John Paul II made to the Uruguayan town of Melo, this film explores how the locals hope the visit will work a mini-economic miracle. Beto (Troncoso) builds a toilet that can be used by the hordes they're expecting, but will all go according to plan? A tense film with a decidedly socio-political purpose.

Wild Child
Date Location
This vacuous rehash of teen movie clichés presents Californian brat Poppy, a foul-mouthed and obnoxious Malibu-mite who is shipped off to a posh boarding school in England in the hope that she learn that values and price-tags are not the same thing. Another dog-eared slice of Working Title crapola aimed squarely at the dumbest of US teens.

You Don't Mess With the Zohan
Date Location
Zohan (Sandler) is a superhuman Mossad agent who renounces violence to pursue his real dream - a new life as a NY hairdresser. As well as a Borat-style delight in his own nakedness, Zohan is characterised by his 'funny foreigner' enthusiasm for hummus, Euro-disco and Wham-era hairstyling. Sandler's latest attempt to un-stereotype himself is a tragic attempt to use outrageous comedy to smooth relationships between New York's Israeli and Palestinian communities

The Good, The Bad and The Ugly
Date Location
During the American Civil War, a trio of mean gringos squabble over hidden loot. Most people remember the Morricone score from this Leone extravaganza, but the degree of directorial stylisation (just count the number of times extreme close-ups fill the screen) make it a remarkable effort all round. Third and last of the Dollars trilogy starring Eastwood.

Space Chimps
Date Location
On the whim of a sinister senator (Tucci), Ham III (Samberg) - the circus performer grandson of one of the first chimpanzees in space is sent into orbit to retrieve a missing satellite. With endless monkey and banana puns and bog-standard animation, 'Space Chimps' is strictly for easily pleased little monkeys.

Star Wars: Clone Wars
Date Location
Emperor Palpatine, Count Dooku and General Grievous are poised to rule the galaxy. The universe rests in the hands of the daring Jedi Knights, led by Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi, along with brand-new heroes such as Anakin's padawan learner, Ahsoka. Like the more recent 'Star Wars' films, this is fairly tedious stuff, but it is nicely animated and fans will probably love it.

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.

Based on the memoirs of Doctor Drauzio Varella, who set up an AIDS-prevention programme in the late 80s at Carandiru takes place in the notorious and now demolished São Paolo correctional facility, where 111 inmates were massacred in 1992 by military police. In this, the most successful film ever at the Brazilian boxoffice, Babenco and his writers weave the inmates tales into a memorable tapestry. The detained men are neither glamorised nor judged, but presented as human beings, struggling to…

The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor
Date Location
Chunky old-fashioned explorer Rick O'Connell (Fraser) returns, and this time he's off to check out the catacombs of ancient China. This risible third installment of hearty adventure franchise is awash with bad CGI effects, infantile humour and sloppy performances. This is pure cheeseball. Unless you've had a lobotomy avoid.

Surf's Up
Date Location
A reasonable improvement on the heavy-handed environmentalism of last year's hit 'Happy Feet', Brannon and Buck's animation is a colourful parody of surfer movies. Entertaining and cheerful but not quite good enough to make seeing another CGI penguin movie an appealing prospect.
6 Sep Sat 11.30am Cineworld Parkhead, Glasgow
The Duchess (Parent & Baby Screening)
Date Location
Period drama retelling the true life story of early 19th century socialite Georgiana Cavendish (Knightley), who finds herself in a mismatched and temperamental marriage, complete with a meddling other woman. She falls for the future prime minister Charles Grey (Cooper) but only inequality and tragedy can come of such assignations. Familiar and tedious stuff, 'The Duchess' is essentially a beautifully shot period TV drama.

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.

Angel
Date Location
Based on Elizabeth Taylor's 1957 novel 'The Real Life of Angel Deverell', this is the campest rags to riches story you will ever see. Impoverished young writer Angel (Garai) soon finds her lurid romantic fiction has made her the toast of London and as she accumulates wealth she becomes obsessed with caddish philanderer Esmé (Fassbender). Hilarious and thoroughly entertaining.

This, the first of seven proposed children fantasy blockbusters based on CS Lewis' much loved allegorical novels, is an absolute stinker, and one made all the more unpalatable by the fact that the very unchristian greed of its producers is so utterly palpable over its seemingly endless running time. Proof that great books can make truly appalling films.

Horton Hears A Who!
Date Location
Animators Blue Sky take a break from their ongoing 'Ice Age' franchise to colourfully realise the universe of Dr Seuss' text.

Gone Baby Gone

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.

Happy-Go-Lucky (Senior Screening)

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.
