FIVE BEST FILMS
Iron Man
Robert Downey Jr is ideally cast as an arms dealer who’s kidnapped by terrorists and forced to build a bomb in this witty Marvel Comics update.
Joy Division
The story of Ian Curtis and Joy Division, told through interviews with the surviving members of the band and assorted associates, and using plenty of amateur-shot archive concert footage.
Limited release .
Stop-Loss
Ryan Phillippe stars as a decorated Texas squadron leader who goes Awol after a tour in Iraq in this blistering account of what war does to young men.
Persepolis
This animated film, based on Marjane Satrapi's graphic novels, is a revealing child's-eye view of growing up in post-revolutionary Iran.
In Bruges
Colin Farrell and Brendan Gleeson star as Irish hitmen who have to lay low in Belgium in this comedy-thriller by Martin McDonagh, who has an ear for snappy dialogue.
