Madonna doesn't try to steal the show and consequently this turns out to be an excellent film. In 1943, with the males away fighting, The All American Girls' Professional Baseball League was formed to keep the National Baseball League running. Hanks is the real star as the cynical manager/coach who learns to love his team. A comic and touching story highlighting many of the contradictions that working women face. High slush factor. find out more...

Some movies just ooze fun and this is surely one of them. Ashton and Amanda shine on as different, yet compatible, goofballs in this gentle and well-written romantic comedy. Meeting accidentally in an airport 7 years ago (accompanied by a timely 90s soundtrack) Emily and Oliver hit it off but part ways. And at the end of each relationship they stumble upon and/or find each other again. It should be cheesier than it is but the chemistry and obvious fun shared by Peet and Kutcher make this film be find out more...

Seriously insightful, if saucy, romantic comedy from director Kevin Smith, the genius behind Clerks and Mallrats.

Wisteria Lane is a pretty, affluent cul-de-sac nestled away in a corner of American suburbia. Quietly innocuous you would think, but behind these closed doors and twitching curtains lies a neighbourhood seething with insecurities, adultery, lust, loathing, bigotry and even murder... welcome to the world of the 'Desperate Housewives'. Sharply scripted, witty, well cast and deliciously implausible this hugely successful series is insidiously addictive... you have been warned. find out more...
