Green Lantern
By Christopher Fraser — June 21, 2011
Green Lantern is one of those films that gets everything right apart from acting and plot. It’s a terrible movie, shrouded in great cinematography, spellbinding visual effects and a gloriously dramatic score

By Christopher Fraser — June 4, 2011
Abandon all your preconceptions about comic book films at the door – you won’t be needing them

The slow death of American imports
By Christopher Fraser — March 9, 2011

Rango
By Christopher Fraser — March 9, 2011
A Nickelodeon-financed animated movie that’s not really for kids
The Adjustment Bureau
By Christopher Fraser — March 7, 2011
Poor Philip K. Dick. In addition to the whole being dead thing, he has to deal with directors who cannibalise his various short stories and novellas to make something more palatable for Hollywood
I Am Number Four
By Christopher Fraser — March 2, 2011
Look, I’m sorry, but this has to stop. It’s just not allowed. You can’t have a sexy trio of Hollywood actors claim to be aliens from another planet without explaining why they look like a sexy trio of Hollywood actors
