Angus, Thongs and Perfect Snogging
Date Location
After the disappointing 'Bride and Prejudice', writer/director 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 Groome, who really are the age of the characters they're playing.
29 Aug–4 Sep 11.50am & 2.10 Cineworld Renfrew Street, Glasgow
Babylon AD
Date Location
Post apocalyptic thriller starring Vin 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.

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.

Cars
Date Location
Racecar Lightning McQueen loses his way en route to the final race of the season and finds himself marooned in the sleepy town of Radiator Springs, which is populated by an array of misfit cars. Despite the many positives, 'Cars' doesn't quite make the highest grade mainly because it's the least original Pixar film yet.
30 Aug–31 Aug Sat & Sun 11.00am Odeon At The Quay, Glasgow
Chamku
Date Location
Hindi political thriller about a secret agent trying to extriciate himself and live a normal life.

Charlotte's Web
Date Location
Chirpy tot Fern (Fanning) rescues Wilbur the pig from a cruel farmyard fate for lovable arachnid Charlotte to eventually save the day in a bittersweet finale that touches on practical matters of life and death. Somewhere between the cutesy 'Babe' and Orwell's political 'Animal Farm' it should draw in children and nostalgic adults alike.

The Dark Knight
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.

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'. Full of interesting references to great Hong Kong actioners of the past this is enjoyable and silly fun.
29 Aug–4 Sep 11.00am, 1.50 & 4.40 Showcase Cinema, Coatbridge, Glasgow
The Fox and the Child
Date Location
A giggly eight-year-old French child (Noël-Bruneau) strikes up a friendship with a fox she meets on the way home from school. This marks a step forward in narrative storytelling for Jacquet, who successfully depicts the fox as a wild and uncontrolled force in a non-Disney manner. An often beguiling account of how mankind and animals can exist in harmony.
30 Aug–31 Aug Sat & Sun 11.30am Odeon At The Quay, Glasgow
Get Smart
Date Location
Segal's tent-pole blockbuster revamp of 1960's spy spoof 'Get Smart' features Carell as an over-prepared secret agent whose clumsiness often leads to the apprehension of enemy spies. Given his chance to shine, Smart is sent to Moscow where he elicits the support of co-spy Agent 99 (Hathaway) as they attempt to thwart the terrorist schemes of KAOS megalomaniac Siegfried (Stamp).

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.

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'.
29 Aug–4 Sep 11.20am Showcase Cinema, Coatbridge, Glasgow
30 Aug–31 Aug Sat & Sun 1.15 IMAX Theatre, Glasgow
Make It Happen
Date Location
Indiana country girl Lauryn (Winstead) comes to Chicago to study dance, but when she fails the college audition she gets work in a mildly saucy nightclub instead. Tosh rites-of-passage drama from the man who brought you 'Save the Last Dance 1&2' and yes 'Step Up 1&2'.
29 Aug–4 Sep 11.30am & 1.45 Cineworld Renfrew Street, Glasgow
Mamma Mia!
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.

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.

Miss Pettigrew Lives For A Day
Date Location
London governess Miss Pettigrew (McDormand) has just lost another job. Dumped by her agency, Miss Pettigrew manages to worm her way into the house of American wannabe starlet Delysia (Adams). Nalluri's attempts to recreate a sparkling Mitchell Leisen style romantic comedy are undone by inferior performances and the complete predictability inherent in this kind of mentally painful experience.
29 Aug–4 Sep 12.40 Cineworld Renfrew Street, Glasgow
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.
29 Aug–4 Sep 1.45, 4.25, 7.00 & 9.40; Fri & Sat 1.45, 4.25, 7.00, 9.40 & 0.15am Showcase Cinema, Coatbridge, 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.
30 Aug Sat 10.00am Cineworld Parkhead, Glasgow
Over the Hedge
Date Location
Above average DreamWorks animation about an audacious raccoon who fools a family of forest creatures to invade suburbia with unexpected results.
30 Aug–31 Aug Sat & Sun 10.30am Grosvenor, Glasgow

Somers Town
Date Location
Originally financed by Eurostar as a short film to promote the service's new terminus at St Pancras, Meadows' has expanded his brief to tell a vividly drawn story of childhood friendship and to paint a vibrant portrait of a part of the big smoke that's in all likelihood soon to gentrified out of existence.

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.

Speed Racer
Date Location
A live action though CG-heavy adaptation of a 1960s Japanese television anime about a futuristic family of racecar designer-drivers who are pitted against a corporate fat cat. The film's message is: business bad, family good, winning best of all. Not that this matters in a film with migraine-inducing race sequences and stomach-churning thrill-rides.
30 Aug–31 Aug Sat & Sun 10.00am Cineworld Parkhead, Glasgow
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.

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

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. Straight, serious chills combined with an impressive directorial turn by Bertino make this taut thriller a deserving sleeper hit.

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.

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.

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
