- 14 Feb 2008
Not-to-be-trifled-with one-man army Rambo stormed Leicester Square last night as Sylvester Stallone hit the red carpet for the movie's UK premiere.

Son Of Rambow: Exclusive Garth Jennings Interview
- 04 Apr 2008

- 27 Mar 2008

No wonder school rebel Lee Carter (Will Poulter) rocks his world. Lee Carter (as Will always calls him) is a bit of a bully, but his "Just William" style antics are innocent... Read more

When we first met John Rambo more than a quarter of a century ago he was already an anachronism, a soldier who had outlived his war and his usefulness. Or so we thought. Just a couple of years later President Reagan was citing him as a foreign policy role model, and Rambo had grown from man to myth. He sorted out Afghanistan rather... Read more
Sundance 2007: The films to watch out for
- 29 Jan 2007
Following up on last year's prize for Quinceanera (Echo Park, LA), two Hispanic-flavoured films triumphed in Sundance this year: in the Dramatic Competition Christopher Zalla's Padre Nuestro is a riveting thriller about an illegal immigrant making his way to New York to meet his father for the first time - but whose identity is stolen by a fellow traveler on the journey. Zalla described it simply as a story about Americans, but it couldn't be more timely, what with George Bush planning to... Read more
