Transformers: Dark of the Moon <= 15 Words

Breathtaking, balletic action... but everything else is utter gibberish, seemingly treating you with contempt.

Tekken <= 15 Words

I swear Luke Goss was never this awesome back in the day. Tekken? It's okay.

The Green Hornet <= 15 Words

Some films are exactly the sum of their parts. This is one of those times.

X-Men First Class <= 15 Words

A decent story, but lacks coherence and subtlety, plus is kind of a B movie.

Fast Five <= 15 Words

The Fast and the Furious + Ocean's Eleven + Predator (* The Rock!) = Fast Five

Thor <= 15 Words

Awesome film. Probably a good idea to keep hammers away from me for a while...

Sucker Punch <= 15 Words

Doesn't hide the seems so well... and it's very style over substance... but what style!

Tron Legacy <= 15 Words

Trailers raised expectations, reviews lowered them significantly. The film itself: good, but not great.

The Girl Who Kicked the Hornets Nest <= 15 Words

Worse than the first, better than the second. If you haven't: read the books first.

London Boulevard <= 15 Words

Monahan's raw talent without Scorsese's finess. The Departed, it's not. Worth your time, it is.

Let Me In <= 15 Words

No subtitles, more CG, but otherwise, well, I kept expecting people to start speaking Swedish.

Legend of the Guardians: The Owls of Ga'Hoole <= 15 Words

A brilliant film for kids featuring non anthropomorphized owls... and Snyder still manages spectacular action.

Despicable Me <= 15 Words

As much a toy advert as a film, not bad, though, just "meh." Also: Brand!

The Social Network <= 15 Words

No Rosebud, but still fascinating. The script's the star, but the camera gets its moment.

The Town <= 15 Words

He did it again. It feels gritty, real, and more than a little heart breaking.

The Final Empire <= 15 Words

A cracking piece of fantasy so good I'll probably buy the sequel whilst in Australia*.

*Books are REALLY expensive in Australia.

Cemetery Junction <= 15 Words

It's not a comedy exactly, but it is funny, and very cleverly written.

Disclaimer: this was the third film I watched during a 13 hour flight. This may have distorted my viewpoint.

Hot Tub Time Machine <= 15 Words

It's not a terrible film, but if you've seen the trailer, you've seen the jokes.

Disclaimer: this was the second film I watched during a 13 hour flight. This may have distorted my viewpoint.

She's Out of My League <= 15 Words

Sort of like "Knocked Up," only I think I enjoyed it more. Also: more believable.

Pandaemonium <= 15 Words

Good enough to be disappointing when Brookmyre falls back on one of his usual agendas.
