dont forget your popcorn

You can compare this to a hundred other war films and inevitably Lord of the Flies but please don't. Brilliant in its very own skin. Scratches all the right itches in all the right places and leaves your spine well and truly tingled. Left me wanting more. Bravo. 4.5/5

- riveting book - riveting film - Oldman and Hardy do a sterling job in this brutal, harsh, Russian thriller. Na Zdrorovie ! 3.5/5

- gruesome, violent, explicit, shocking. Lord of the Flies Africa. Wish it wasn't all so totally believable. Help! 4/5

- Al Pacino carves a role as an angry young cop shaking a fist at the status quo. One to watch, he could be the next James Bond 3/5

- cant remember anything about this. Or in fact who I am or why I am writing this. Remarkable - don't forget this. 4/5

- revenge thriller that is definitely best served cold. Keeps you on the edge of your settee - nearly fell off mine. 3/5

- not afraid to say I cried like a new born baby throughout. Most powerful film I think I have ever seen. Shockingly good 4/5
