Amélie - Jean Pierre Jeunet

Frozen (2013): Two Line Review

A relatively average Disney outing that had a number of glaring plot questions that were never explained. There are a few catchy songs and characters but the storyline is just so simple.

Frozen - Chris Buck, Jennifer Lee

Ratatouille (2007): Two Line Review

A nicely original Pixar animation celebrating food and France. Stereotypical characters are made up by an enchanting story and beautiful design, with a heartfelt message to follow your dreams.

Dawn of the Planet of the Apes (2014): Two Line Review

A brilliant addition to the franchise, Dawn of Apes takes CGI up a notch, with great turns from Serkis et al. A perfect blend of awesome action and emotional story makes for a great summer blockbuster.

Dawn of the Planet of the Apes - Matt Reeves

Kiss Kiss Bang Bang (2005): Two Line Review

A likeable comic crime caper with a fast-talking lead performance from Robert Downey Jnr. Played with self-reflexivity without overdoing it, to become a successful dark comedy.

Kiss Kiss Bang Bang - Shane Black

A Knight's Tale (2001): Two Line Review

A jovial medieval action/romance flick that doesn't take itself seriously, and although it break realism a few times, the solid, comical ensemble performances and storyline make it an entertaining film.

A Knight's Tale - Brian Helgeland

The Anomaly (2014): Two Line Review

Noel Clarke does Inception, sadly the low budget shows through this quite weak sci-fi. The basic concept is an interesting idea but the script, execution and performances are just not up to scratch.
