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.

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.

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.

The Game Plan
Date Location
'The Game Plan' follows the fortunes of Elvis-obsessed American football superstar quarterback Joe Kingsman (Johnson) and his estranged eight-year old daughter (Pettis) when she enrols him in ballet school.

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.
