The Jackass gang convene for a slight dramatic comedy, that's a little more soulful than laugh out loud funny.

This endlessly adapted novel seems the usual respectful, uninspired fare from director Joe Wright, though lifted a little by the performance of Keira Knightley.

It maybe flawed, too long and the final third lesser than the preceding two but director Derek Cianfrance's heady drama is so ambitious and full of deep, rich characters and feelings, it totally earns it.

A 9.5/10 for Robert Altman's existential, mood and scene based take on Raymond Chandler's classic detective yarn, with Elliot Gould filling Philip Marlowe's gum-shoes. A Rosetta Stone for films like Once Upon a Time in Hollywood and Inherent Vice, it backgrounds the plot for atmosphere and a sense of place and time. A slightly underappreciated masterpiece.

Director Thomas Vinterberg's terrific Norwegian drama makes superb use of the brilliant Mads Mikkelsen. Here playing a teacher undone by a combination of pack mentality and an accusation of child abuse.
