Bored, rich & coasting banker Michael Douglas gets a 48th birthday present he isn't likely to forget - a game that nearly kills him, but gets the blood pumping. A fantastic thriller with top twists.

Naughty & crass for all the right reasons, Thornton is one of only a few actors who could pull off this drunken slob who couldn't give a crap, but you still love him. Delicious. You'll chuckle a lot.

What an awesome trio - Penn, Del Toro and a stunning Watts doing battle with these two acting giants and coming out just as memorable. The kind of film that stays with you months after seeing it.

One of the saints smoking a cigarette and discussing life and its nasty ways of hammering you - is just one of the delights in this 7-year old gets sacks of train robbery money gem. Danny Boyle film.

The staggering charisma/righteous anger of Samuel L Jackson and the believability of Ben Affleck's yuppy make this so much more than a film about race & those who have and have not. Excellent watch.

There's cliches in here for sure, the idyllic home, everyone's pretty, but the fab cast and the story take it to something better. Much more touching than you'd expect - liked it so much I bought it!

Kevin Bacon goes slowly nuts as he demolishes his house, haunted by voices and horrible flashbacks that tell him something murderous happened there in the past. A superb unfolding spooky.

Finney is magnificent as Churchill with all his greatness, statemanship and English eloquence running side-by-side with his pomposity & whining neediness. Redgrave just sublime as his wife. Gorgeous.

Instead of just showing you the daughter of Douglas/Jones lost to drugs and all that entails, this film brilliantly traces its route from South America to American streets. Stunning cast and story.

From the same director of the criminally underrated "Rocketeer", we get the horse Hidalgo put in a race across 3000 miles of merciless desert. Old fashioned and daring do. Loved it!

A beautifully realised watch about a man driven to demystify sex and sexual behaviour for the masses. Maverick direction, stunning writing & Neeson/Linney/Lithgow/Sarsgaard all fantastic.

Mommy takes the whole family in the car into Manhattan to confront daddy (a possibly straying Stanley Tucci). Amazing ensemble cast and writing that reminds you of how important good writing is.
