Rating: ★★★½
Jan 3, 2000Disfigured Avenging Superhero
Amid the early 1990s spate of dark superhero films, Sam Raimi created one of the few original screen superheroes with Darkman, essentially a superhero film where The Joker (by way of The Phantom of the Opera) is the hero of the piece

Transformers: Dark of the Moon (2011)
Rating: ★★
Jun 30, 2011Live-Action Transformer Robots
The third of Michael Bay's Transformers films. While the human scenes opt for a ghastly miscalculated sense of humour, the effects houses are at the peak of their game, even if Bay allows them to drag the mass destruction out to a numbing excess

Madagascar 3: Europe’s Most Wanted (2012)
Rating: ★★½
Jun 6, 2012Animation/Talking Animals
The Madagascar series was a cute idea first time around but has been stretched more than its worth by the sequels. Nevertheless, this works at you with a colourful light-heartedness that is hard to resist

The Good Dinosaur (2015)
Rating: ★★★
Dec 6, 2015Pixar Animation/Dinosaur Befriends Caveboy
Pixar have never been the same since they slipped into the easy familiarity of sequelitis. This is essentially a boy and his dog story but played out with a dinosaur and a caveboy, but also an alternate history tale

Rating: ★★★★
Nov 17, 2018Stop-Motion Animation/Talking Dogs
Wes Anderson is at his best when he does stop-motion animation as in Fantastic Mr. Fox and here. Essentially a Disney talking animals animated film where the animals talk like real people, this comes with considerable charm
