Deception

   Deception
It’s usually not a good thing when a famous actor takes to producing a movie in which he has a big role. Deception is Hugh Jackman’s vanity project.
 
Money No Enough 2

   Money No Enough 2
Singapore’s Jack Neo returns with another one of his melodramatic slapstick movies about the family and the big bad rat race.
 
The Love Guru

   The Love Guru
There is a big difference when a comedy is made on the basis of just pure slapstick as compared to one that shows irreverent yet intelligent writing.
 
Babylon A.D.

   Babylon A.D.
Somewhere in this quagmire of so-so action scenes and muddled storytelling is a decent sci-fi tale aching to be told. It never emerges, and the resulting film just leaves the viewer cold.
 
The Elephant and the Sea

   The Elephant and the Sea
If one were to review Woo Ming Jin’s new movie in just one sentence, then that sentence would read: The Elephant and the Sea is a Malaysian Chinese Movie.
 
Death Race

   Death Race
That sound you hear is the roar of cinematic junk food rushing down moviegoers’ gullets. By all accounts, this loud and violent spectacle should not be enjoyable – and yet, heaven help our Grand Theft Auto-desensitized souls, it is.
 
You Don't Mess With the Zohan

   You Don't Mess With the Zohan
Even unstoppable terrorist-vanquishing commandos have dreams, and in the case of Israeli hero Zohan, it is ... to cut and style hair.
 
Mirrors

   Mirrors
Who’s the scariest one of all? Not this one, but it does have some good creepy moments, knuckle-whitening tension and a truly sickening death scene.
 
WALL-E

   WALL-E
With Wall•E, Disney has decided to take a different approach. Rather than take the stereotypical route, it asks: what if we, the earthlings, destroyed the world and the robots helped save it?
 
Susuk

   Susuk
Susuk is both a horror movie and a satire of the local entertainment industry. Pity then that it should be so plodding.

Entertainment Poll

What is your general impression of anime?

  • It's a valid art form that successfully explores more adult themes than normal cartoons
  • It’s a juvenile, insouciant approach that doesn’t compare to established art forms
  • It’s a good exploration of the more surreal side of animation
  • It's a tired art form filled with too many clichés
  • It’s no different from any other form of animation
