Jason Bourne… sorry… Matt Damon turns morally absolute during a politically labyrinthine trip to Baghdad to search for non-existent WMDs with Paul Greengrass.

This meditation on the psychology of modern warfare richly deserves its six Oscars. Kinetic, atmospheric and taut with tension, it rises above stupid quibbles about the 'accuracy' or 'bias' of war movies.

A schlocky, fun and gory mainstream horror flick – just don't expect an illuminating social commentary.

A cannibalistic convict film could have gone one of two ways: exploitative horror or existential dread. While Dying Breed chose the former path, Van Diemen's Land wisely chooses the latter.

The latest animated film from Studio Ghibli (Spirited Away) is absolutely gorgeous but only adds to the stereotype of weird Japan. Do characters not need motivations in the land of the rising sun?

Deep thought is difficult to portray on screen, especially for someone like Guy Ritchie. Therefore, his Sherlock Holmes is a quirky man of action and his blockbuster is a blast.

Funny, touching and hugely enjoyable, Zombieland is a shaggier American take on the now-classic zom-com Shaun Of The Dead.

Despite its hipster-baiting, Arcade Fire-propelled trailer, Where The Wild Things Are lacks any real bite.

Death as cinematic entertainment takes on a cynical and stupid new dimension in the fourth, and hopefully Final Destination.
