This 'thought provoking' rom com starring Reese Witherspoon and Vince Vaughen had a fair few laugh out loud moments - often in jokes for mums - but failed to light my Christmas tree. The leads are likeable, the supporting cast quirky but it lacked originality. Fun but nothing new. (49 words)

Robert Downey Jr stars in this Marvel film as an owner of a weapons company who uses his genius to create an 'iron man' jet suit. Jeff Bridges is his not-so-obedient right-hand man and Gweneth Paltrow stars as the love interest. Fun with great special effects. (46 words)

Bond returns and wants revenge for the murder of his lover. Luckily, one of the people responsible is also trying to take over Bolivia and Bond sets out to catch him. The action sequences are absolutely brilliant and the story-line necessarily brief! Better than Casino Royale! (46 words)

A tongue-in-cheek film by Disney where a cartoon Disney Princess is banished to real-world New York by her fiance's evil mother. The film's cartoon characters are brilliantly transposed into real-life actors - particularly Timothy Spall's fawning bufoon character. Fun for all the family! (43 words)

A waitress in a hick US town finds out that she's pregnant by her frankly frightening, horrible, abusive husband. Her doctor provides her with comfort and more and she dreams of escaping her life through her pie cooking genius. A thoughtful, funny, tear-jerking classic. Don't watch when hungry! (48 words)

Ashton Kutcher and Cameron Diaz get drunk and married in Vegas and win $3m. When sober, they battle it out through the courts to get their share of the money - but have to prove to the judge that they made a go of the marriage first. Superior rom-com. (49 words)

A bright MIT maths student is recruited by one of his professors (Kevin Spacey) to enter the mirky business of card counting in Vegas. He does it to pay for his forthcoming studies at Harvard but gets sucked into the lure of easy money. A fun, if shallow, caper. (49 words)

Another funny and surprisingly sensitive movie from the makers of Knocked Up. Peter's TV celebrity girlfriend splits up with him and he tries to escape his depression in Hawaii...where she has also gone with her new rock-star boyfriend (brilliantly acted by Russell Brand). Peter finds himself and more! (48 words)

An excellent movie charting several viewpoints of the same terrorist attack and assassination attempt on the President of the USA in Spain. Each viewpoint builds on our understanding of what is happening. Brilliant acting from Dennis Quaid and Forest Whittaker. This film had me on edge right through! (48 words)

This highly rated film failed to light by oil-fire. Daniel Day-Lewis plays an 1890's self-made prospector who buys a family farm and strikes oil. He has to deal with the fall-out on the village and its evangelical people. Ultimately, I didn't feel anything for any of the characters. (48 words)
