Taking its cue from Chronicle (2012), Project Almanac is part of the "found footage" sci-fi phenomenon sweeping contemporary teen cinema.

But, as science would have it, every action has its equal and opposite reaction. Soon the 'jumps' become a desperate attempt to rewrite the rewrite. G find out more...

In what appears to be a self-conscious effort to stay relevant with the aging audience of his earlier ‘Crazy Kids' pictures, Hughes portrays the (ulp!) realistic problems facing millions of rich, white middle-class kids across America. What do we call our heir? What colour shall we paint his/her en suite bathroom? Blue or pink? How can Kevin spend more time with find out more...

It's 1985 and working class lad Brian Jackson has got himself a place at Bristol University, a sizeable step towards his ambition of getting onto University Challenge, but there is a veritable minefield for the naïve Brian to negotiate before he can achieve the pinnacle of becoming one of ‘Bamber's' babes, not least of which is the opposite sex. 'Starter For 10' is a charming well observed bitter sweet comedy, carried nicely by James McAvoy as the ‘all at sea' Brian. Neat soundtrack to. find out more...
