Blade Runner
Date Location
A tough cop tracks down a group of malfunctioning androids in this gritty hi-tech retread of Raymond Chandler, executed with Scott's customary visual flair, and with strong performances, especially from Ford and Hauer. But try following the confusing plot first time around.
24 May25 May Sat 5.30; Sun 7.30 Eden Court Theatre, Inverness
Buenos Aires 1977 (Cronica de una Fuga)
Date Location
Based on real-life accounts from survivors of Argentina's brutal military regime in the 1970s and 1980s. De la Serna ('The Motorcycle Diaries') stars as a goalkeeper, kidnapped and plotting his escape. P
28 May Wed 8.45 Eden Court Theatre, Inverness
District 13
Date Location
Setting Le Parkour creator David Belle opposite regular fight-choreographer Cyril Raffaelli, the agenda is one of pure action. With both cast as reluctant heroes facing up to the bullying drug culture of a Paris banlieu circa 2010, this is another of writer Luc Besson's patented kick-ass futuristic adventures, and perhaps a taster of the future of the modern action film.
24 May Sat 6.15 Eden Court Theatre, Inverness
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
23 May24 May Fri & Sat 11.30 Vue Inverness, Inverness
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.
23 May27 May Fri–Tue 5.20 Vue Inverness, Inverness
Funny Games US
Date Location
Shot-by-shot, English language remake of Austrian auteur Haneke's post-modern 1997 thriller 'Funny Games', relocated to the US. The tormenting of a family of three (Watts, Roth and Gearheart) by sociopaths Paul and Peter (Pitt and Corbet) while on holiday provide an interrogation of the relationship between violence and voyeurism that remains wholly engrossing and deeply shocking.

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. Both Carrey and Carrell are allowed full rein for their brand of vocal mugging as co-directors Hayward and Martino skilfully guide 'Horton' towards a comforting moral about size not being all that important.
24 May25 May Sat & Sun 10.10am Vue Inverness, Inverness
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.
26 May29 May Mon & Wed 8.30; Tue 11.30am & 6.00; Thu 6.00 Eden Court Theatre, Inverness

28 May Wed 11.30am Vue Inverness, Inverness
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.
23 May29 May Mon 12.30, 3.10, 5.50, 7.45 & 8.45; Sat 9.50am, 12.30, 3.10, 5.50, 7.45, 8.45 & 10.40; Fri 12.30, 3.10, 5.50, 7.45, 8.45 & 10.40; Sun 9.50am, 12.30, 5.50, 7.45 & 8.45; Tue 12.30, 3.10, 5.50 & 7.45; Wed & Thu 12.30, 3.10, 5.50 & 8.45 Vue Inverness, Inverness
Iron Man (Subtitled)
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.
25 May27 May Sun 3.10; Tue 8.45 Vue Inverness, Inverness
Leatherheads
Date Location
Dodge Connolly (Clooney) is a cocky but charming football hero who is determined that his team will hit the big time. Investigative journalist Lexie Littleton (Zellweger) smells a story and the two become entangled in more ways than one. This wannabe Preston Sturges style romantic comedy set against the backdrop of the burgeoning American football league in 1925 yields tepid results and is Clooney's least interesting film as a director.
23 May25 May Fri 6.00; Sat 1.30; Sun 2.00 Eden Court Theatre, Inverness
The Letter
Date Location
This thrilling version of the Somerset Maugham play casts Davis as a manipulative tart under suspicion of murder. Her husband (Marshall) stands resolutely by her side as she calculatingly claims self-defence, and the filthy truth begins to unravel.
25 May Sun 5.15 Eden Court Theatre, Inverness
Lonesome Jim
Date Location
Buscemi does a great turn behind the camera with a tale of failure, depression and never quite getting what you want.
29 May Thu 6.15 Eden Court Theatre, Inverness
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.
23 May29 May Sat & Sun 10.20am, 12.40 & 3.05; Fri, Mon & Tue 12.40 & 3.05; Wed & Thu 11.50am & 2.05 Vue Inverness, Inverness
Pickpocket
Date Location
One of Bresson's most popular films, shot on the teeming streets of Paris and inspired by Dostoyevsky's 'Crime and Punishment'. It's all about an isolated young man who aspires to challenge society and himself through daring criminal acts. Fantastic.
27 May Tue 8.00 Eden Court Theatre, Inverness
PS I Love You (Senior Screening)
Date Location
Overlong, bland and ham-fisted adaptation of the novel by Cecilia Ahern. A young widow's (Swank) grief at losing her husband is tempered when she finds a series of messages he wrote her before he died. Initially reluctant to re-engage with love, she soon recovers her sense of womanhood through a series of unlikely steps with her husband cheerleading her on from above.
27 May Tue 2.20 Vue Inverness, Inverness
Sex and the City: The Movie
Date Location
Carrie Bradshaw and the girls are back in a big screen adventure that apparently takes on such big issues as fashion, marriage and death.
28 May29 May Wed & Thu 1.15, 4.15, 7.30 & 10.45 Vue Inverness, Inverness
Shine A Light
Date Location
Overly reverential documentary filmed at a Rolling Stones concert hosted by Bill Clinton in New York City, which shows the songs in full, interspersed with archive interviews and footage of the band. Despite the interesting inclusion of Scorcese in the opening and final scenes, no new discoveries are made here.
23 May26 May Fri 6.15; Sat 8.30; Sun 7.45; Mon 8.45 Eden Court Theatre, Inverness
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.
23 May29 May Sat & Sun 10.15am, 1.10 & 4.10; Fri, Mon & Tue 1.10 & 4.10; Wed & Thu 12.20 Vue Inverness, Inverness
The Spiderwick Chronicles
Date Location
Upon moving into the dilapidated Spiderwick Estate, siblings Jared (Highmore), Simon (Highmore) and Mallory (Bulger) find a guide to a fantastical world of faeries and creatures in this adaptation of Holly Black and Tony DiTerlizzi's series. They must battle against Mulgarath, however, the evil shape-shifting ogre who is also after the key to the fantasyland of faeries.

Date Location
Polanski's version of the Shakespearean classic.
23 May 8.30 Eden Court Theatre, Inverness
Under the Bombs
Date Location
Filmed during Israel's 33-day bombardment of Lebanon in 2006, this heartfelt road movie follows wealthy Shi'ite woman Zeina (Farhat) and Christian taxi driver Tony (Georges Khabbaz), as they travel from Beirut to the devastated south. Aractingi steers clear of political sermonising and instead concentrates on showing the impact of war upon a society's infrastructure and its civilian population.

What Happens in Vegas . . .
Date Location
This underwhelming romantic comedy details the love trajectory of Vegas gamblers Joy (Diaz) and Jack (Kutcher), who wake up one morning to find they are married and have also hit the jackpot on the tables. Cue farcical attempts to cheat each other out of the money while falling in love. It's watchable enough, but ultimately a bit of a waste of time.
23 May29 May Sat 10.30am, 12.50, 3.20, 5.45, 8.15 & 10.30; Sun 10.30am, 12.50, 5.45 & 8.15; Mon 12.50, 3.20, 5.45 & 8.15; Tue 3.20 & 5.45; Wed & Thu 3.20, 5.45, 8.15 & 10.30; Fri 12.50, 3.20, 5.45, 8.15 & 10.30 Vue Inverness, Inverness
