Mill Lavvies
Date Location
Musical comedy set in the 1960s Dundee mills.
6 Oct–18 Oct Whitehall Theatre, Dundee
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.
4 Oct–9 Oct Sun 3.55; Thu 6.25; Sat 11.10 Odeon Dundee, Dundee
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.
3 Oct–9 Oct 11.10am, 1.15, 3.20, 5.45 & 8.00; Tue 12.00, 3.20, 5.45 & 8.00; Fri & Sat 11.10am, 1.15, 3.20, 5.45, 8.00 & 10.30 Odeon Dundee, Dundee
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.
3 Oct–9 Oct 12.20, 2.30, 4.50, 7.00 & 9.10; Fri & Sat 12.20, 2.30, 4.50, 7.00, 9.10 & 11.30 Cineworld Dundee, Dundee

Colin Fry
Date Location
The phenomenal 'Sixth Sense' star uses his psychic gifts to wow his audience.
30 Oct 7.30 Caird Hall, Dundee
Brideshead Revisited
Date Location
Jarrold's revamp of Evelyn Waugh's classic novel pares back the opulent trimmings of the television series to expose the bare bones of Waugh's lament for the civilised past. Charting blithe social climber Charles Ryder (Goode) on his journey from humble Paddington digs to the aristocratic arcadia, the film focuses on his halting love affair with prim posho Julia (Atwell).
3 Oct–9 Oct 11.20am, 2.20, 5.20 & 8.20; Fri & Sat 11.20am, 2.20, 5.20, 8.20 & 11.10 Cineworld Dundee, Dundee
3 Oct–9 Oct 12.30, 3.20, 6.10 & 9.00; Sat & Sun 3.00, 6.00 & 8.50 Dundee Contemporary Arts, Dundee
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.
3 Oct–9 Oct 11.00am, 1.00, 3.00, 5.00 & 7.05; Sat 11.00am, 1.00 & 3.00; Mon 11.00am, 1.00, 3.00 & 5.00; Sun 1.00, 3.00, 5.00 & 7.05 Cineworld Dundee, Dundee

Date Location

8 Oct 7.30 The Little Theatre, Dundee
How to Lose Friends and Alienate People
Date Location
Toby Young's semi-scandalous memoir about the period the gobby English journo spent carousing with the rich and famous while working at a glossy magazine in New York is given a mainstream movie makeover with this enjoyable enough romantic comedy. Young's rudely confessional and frequently very funny observations are now framed by a bland will-they-won't-they love story that sadly drowns every last scrap of satirical stab.
3 Oct–9 Oct Fri 10.55am, 3.45, 6.10, 8.45 & 11.10; Mon 10.55am, 3.45, 6.10 & 8.45; Sat 10.55am, 1.15, 6.10, 8.45 & 11.10; Tue 10.55am, 1.15, 6.10 & 8.45; Sun & Wed 10.55am, 1.15, 3.45 & 8.45; Thu 10.55am, 1.15, 3.45 & 6.10 Odeon Dundee, Dundee
3 Oct–9 Oct 11.00am, 1.30, 4.00, 6.25 & 8.55; Fri & Sat 11.00am, 1.30, 4.00, 6.25, 8.55 & 11.25 Cineworld Dundee, Dundee
Appaloosa
Date Location
Based on Robert B Parker's Western novel, 'Appaloosa' charts two young men's attempt to police a small town lorded-over by a rancher. The arrival of a beautiful widow complicates matters further. Traditional but powerful western which relies on narrative psychology and fine performance work rather than special effects. Following on from 2000's 'Pollock' Harris proves himself to be a more than interesting filmmaker.
3 Oct–9 Oct 12.45 & 6.00 Cineworld Dundee, Dundee
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.
3 Oct–9 Oct 11.00am, 1.20, 3.55, 6.25 & 8.50; Fri & Sat 11.00am, 1.20, 3.55, 6.25, 8.50 & 11.10 Odeon Dundee, Dundee
3 Oct–9 Oct 11.05am, 1.25, 3.50, 6.15 & 8.50; Fri & Sat 11.05am, 1.25, 3.50, 6.15, 8.50 & 11.25 Cineworld Dundee, Dundee

The popularity of films like this certainly make one wonder about the rampancy of mental illness in our culture.

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.
3 Oct–9 Oct 3.40, 6.10 & 8.40; Fri 11.00am, 1.15, 3.40, 6.10, 8.40 & 11.10; Sat 3.40, 6.10, 8.40 & 11.10 Cineworld Dundee, Dundee

Death Race
Date Location
Rehashed elements from Roger Corman's 70s 'Death Race 2000' with Statham as Jensen Ames, who is forced by prison warden Hennessey (Allen) to take part in a three stage Death Race on pay-per-view television. The chase sequences are satisfying and Allen clearly enjoys some action-movie slumming, director Anderson's reboot is predictably stripped of the anarchic humour and political sideswipes of the original.
3 Oct–9 Oct 4.10, 6.40 & 9.00; Sat 4.10, 6.40, 9.00 & 11.30; Sun 4.10, 6.40 & 9.00; Fri 11.25am, 1.50, 4.10, 6.40, 9.00 & 11.30 Cineworld Dundee, Dundee

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.
3 Oct–9 Oct 5.55 & 8.25; Fri & Sat 5.55, 8.25 & 11.00 Odeon Dundee, Dundee
3 Oct–9 Oct 9.05 Cineworld Dundee, Dundee
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?
3 Oct–9 Oct 1.15, 3.45, 6.15 & 8.40; Tue 1.15, 3.45 & 6.15; Fri & Sat 1.15, 3.45, 6.15, 8.40 & 11.10 Odeon Dundee, Dundee

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.

88 Minutes
Date Location
Pacino plays Jack Gramm, a forensic scientist who finds himself framed for murder. Given 88 minutes to find the real culprit, Pacino wearily scrambles between police, suspects and a Death Row killer to prove his innocence. With a ludicrously cheesy cliffhanger climax, '88 Minutes' amounts to rank codswallop.

13 Nov 7.30 Caird Hall, Dundee
Times and Winds
Date Location
Erdem's magnificent work provides a striking vision of childhood in a mountainous Anatolian village overlooking the Aegean Sea. Concentrating on the experiences of a trio of pre-pubescent adolescents within this patriarchal community, where modern technologies are noticeably absent, religion and nature are billed as the only forces guiding the routines of the area's inhabitants. Directed with complete assurance, this is a film to savour.
