Dross. Even Claire Danes couldn’t salvage this. How on earth the producers got the likes of De Niro and Pfeiffer to sign on is a my$$tery. 2/10

Extremely odd documentary about a footballer who didn’t play in France’s world cup winning team. 2/10
Silly but funny animation. Loses its way in the second half but good ending just about makes up for it. 6/10
Slow to the point of catatonic; people actually walked out even though director Carlos Reygadas was in the cinema. What the Cannes jury was thinking is not clear. 1/10
Entertaining French farce; too much homage paid to Tarantino; not as clever as it wanted to be. 6/10
One of the best films I saw in 2007. Hilarious, poignant, ridiculous. A treat of a film. 9/10
Stunning cinematography; good combination of action/drama and Casey Affleck’s transition from coward to killer is excellent. 8/10
