Aron Ralston is an adrenalin junkie, and as any self respecting pleasurer of the ’oh, that’s a bit extreme!’, he’s full on tearing it through Utah's Canyonlands National Park when one leap too far leaves his arm pinioned by a bolder in a barren crevasse. Based on a true story this is the remarkable account of Ralston’s cocky, hopeful, desperate, hallucinatory and determined desire to survive. A superb performance by Franco (and a cracking soundtrack) help pull this minimalist film through; tight find out more...

Lucy Fife Donaldson says: "Mark Wahlberg is pulled back into the smuggling business when his brother-in-law falls foul of a no-good gang, run by Giovanni Ribisi (who looks and sounds the meanest he has yet). What follows is a fairly standard, but no less fun for it, caper of heist plans and double (double) crosses that goes to Panama and back. If you can’t fall for the easy charm of Wahlberg, not to mention the wiry charisma of Ribisi and Ben Foster, then this is unlikely to be of much find out more...

DEFIANCE (2008)

The true WW2 story of how a Jewish group led by the Bielski brothers, including many women, oldies and children, survived for 4 years in the then Polish, now Belorussian, forests, lived in dugouts, built a kitchen, a mill, a bakery, a bathhouse, a medical clinic for the sick and wounded and a quarantine hut for typhus sufferers.

EL CID (1961)

CertificationPG Our Rating

One of the very finest epics produced, equally impressive in terms of script and spectacle. Heston is aptly heroic as the 11th Century patriot destined to die in the fight to evict the Moors from Spain, Mann's direction is stately and thrilling and Miklos Rosza's superb score perfectly complements the crisp and simple widescreen images. Sobriety and restraint, in fact, are perhaps the keynotes of the film's success, with the result that a potentially risible finale, in which Cid's corpse is born find out more...

A moving and dramatic (if Hollywood) retelling of the Zionist struggle to reclaim their ancient home land and create the independent state of Israel in the aftermath of WW2, focusing in particular on the actions Ari Ben Canaan, a commander in the Israeli underground, as he attempts to bring 600 Jews ‘home'. An epic bit of propaganda. find out more...
