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.

The Stone of Destiny
Date Location
Smith's hysterical, historical heist film gets a Scotland-only release. Cox plays Ian Hamilton, a student who sets out to liberate the Stone of Destiny from Westminster Abbey and bring in back to Scotland. A cinematic non-event, devoid of thrills, excitement and even common sense.

Taken
Date Location
Retired US secret agent operative Bryan (Neeson) steps into fray when his daughter Kim (Grace), with his ex-wife (Janssen), is 'taken' by sex traffickers on a trip to Paris. A high octane, blood thumping update of Paul Schrader's 1979 'Hardcore' is every bit as ridiculous as it sounds but no less enjoyable for it, with Francophile attitude, Chekhovian familial regret, over the top torture and not a fundamentalist Muslim in sight.
16 Oct 11.50am, 2.40, 5.05, 7.40 & 10.00; Fri & Sat 11.50am, 2.40, 5.05, 7.40, 10.00 & 0.15am Showcase Cinema, Paisley, Paisley
Mirrors
Date Location
This 'Into the Mirror' remake features Sutherland in full Jack Bauer mode as an ex-cop who turns security guard to patrol the scorched interiors of a fire-gutted New York hotel. Having accidentally shot his partner in the line of duty, alcoholic Carson soon begins to hallucinate that an evil force behind the hotel's mirrors is after his family.

Tropic Thunder
Date Location
While filming a war movie, three Hollywood actors become embroiled with a heroin cartel run by a tyrannical 12-year-old (Brandon Soo Hoo) and are forced to become the soldiers they are portraying. Like Stiller's previous directorial efforts, 'Tropic Thunder' looks like it has been plotted by a child simpleton but most of the time you'll be laughing too hard to notice, or care.
16 Oct 11.20am, 1.55, 4.35, 7.15 & 10.05; Fri & Sat 11.20am, 1.55, 4.35, 7.15, 10.05 & 0.25am Showcase Cinema, Paisley, Paisley
Alternative Nation
Date Location
Run by DJ Barry and Harvey Kartel, this weekly club is devoted to everything from juddering electro and sleazy cock rock to bouncy hip hop and ferocious metal.
Thursdays 11.00–3.00am Bamboo, Glasgow
Mutant Chronicles
Date Location
Major Mitch Hunter (Jane) leads a war against an army of necro-mutants. Impressively dark and odd horror sci-fi adventure co-starring 'Hellboy''s Ron Perlman. Minor cult status of minor franchise series beckons.
16 Oct 11.05am, 2.35, 5.10, 7.55 & 10.30 Showcase Cinema, Coatbridge, Glasgow
16 Oct 11.05am, 2.35, 5.10, 7.55 & 10.30 Showcase Cinema, Paisley, Paisley
Righteous Kill
Date Location
New York police detective partners Rooster (Pacino) and Turk (De Niro) duke it out over a series of cop killings while staring admiringly at each other as if they're celebrating a diamond-wedding anniversary. When they met in Michael Mann's 'Heat' the anticipation was enormous but 13 years and a loss of kudos later, not so much.
16 Oct 7.25 & 10.15; Fri & Sat 7.25, 10.15 & 0.30am Showcase Cinema, Paisley, Paisley
16 Oct 7.50 & 10.20; Fri & Sat 7.50, 10.20 & 0.40am Showcase Cinema, Coatbridge, Glasgow
Mixed Bizness
Date Location
Cutting edge underground beats and classic dancefloor gems. Includes entry to R-P-Z.
Thursdays 11.00–3.00am The Glasgow School of Art, Glasgow
The Women
Date Location
Depressing update of Clare Booth Luce's 1936 satirical play set in the idle and bitchy world of wealthy wives and divorcees. US TV writer Diane English adapts and directs with little feeling for the sacred text she is dealing with. Some adequate performances, nice costumes and a few decent one-liners aside this prompts the inevitable question: why?
16 Oct 7.35 & 10.05; Fri & Sat 7.35, 10.05 & 0.35am Showcase Cinema, Coatbridge, Glasgow
16 Oct 7.50 & 10.35 Showcase Cinema, Paisley, Paisley
