For those of you not in the know this is a brilliant satire on a bunch of totally cynical New Labour twats, incompetent elected officials and a bunch of muddling bureaucrats. Capaldi is superb, as the PM's foul mouthed attack dog enforcer (Alistair Campbell), as our politicians conspire with both hawks and doves in Washington in the fumbling build-up to a major war to grab oil in the Middle East. find out more...

Brilliant Monty Python skit on the life of Christ which also takes a few swipes at the sectarian nature of British left wing political parties. Brian never wanted to be a messiah but fame is thrust upon him. Caused a huge outcry when it was released. Still banned in the Republic of Ireland!! find out more...

Woody Allen has fun with his affection for long Russian novels, the films of Ingmar Bergman and metaphysical abstraction. One of his funniest! find out more...

US comedian Bill Maher travels the world, with a metaphoric blunderbuss, to mock religious zealots by allowing them to spout quixotically outlandish pieces of madness/religion and to point out some of the logical absurdities in their beliefs. Some of the victims are purely nuts, but most represent the views of mainstream sects, only a Vatican priest really saves the day for God with a humourous scepticism about the whole nature of fundamentalism. The destinations include Jerusalem, the Vatican, find out more...

A quirky, clever and charming movie from rookie director Anderson, who flies in the face of convention by making the hero of this high school-based comedy a slightly geeky academic who's anything but the all-American kid. Max Fischer is a brilliant but mixed-up scholarship kid at the Rushmore Academy, with a frenzied timetable and an uncanny knack of baffling both students and teachers alike. He attracts the attention of Blume (the superb Bill Murray), a rich, bored, middle-aged parent, apparen find out more...

Hip 'n' happening comedy following a bunch of angst-ridden male buddies as they trawl LA's grooviest nightspots in the age old quest for love and the meaning of life or, failing that, a quick shag. A sharp script and top performances from an unknown cast in this deliriously funny feelgood film. find out more...

Ricky Bobby isn't the sharpest tool in the shed but, damn, he's the finest NASCAR driver on the circuit, that is until debonair French Formula One driver Jean Girard enters the scene. From the crazy loons behind ‘40 year old Virgin' and ‘Anchor Man' comes another very silly, slightly surreal Will Ferrell vehicle. Slyly, knowingly cretinous, Talladega Nights just gets funnier the longer you stay with it, winning you over through sheer attrition. Stupid?....yessirreee. ‘Shake and bake' my friend, find out more...

Three estranged brothers find themselves on an epic train journey across India in search of their elusive mother. Darjeeling Limited is a typically quirky, charming and random observation of ill-prepared, not just for the trip itself but also the stress that each others company brings, characters that you doubt could ever really exist. Beautiful to look at with a pitch perfect score, understated yet wilfully odd, perversely funny and, as ever, populated by people that you're not entirely sure yo find out more...
