    Published: Aug 22, 08

On the menu today is the new Guy Ritchie - sorry, Shane Ritchie - no - Shane Meadows film, Somers Town. There's execrable family comedy with Martin Lawrence in College Road Trip; and daft secret agent tomfoolery with Steve Carell in Get Smart. Finally, Mark chats with the new Orson Welles, Guillermo Del Toro, director of Hellboy
     
  • Kermode: Hellboy 2, 15 Aug 08
    Published: Aug 15, 08
    The Good Doctor makes a welcome return, if a little trucated due to the Olympic Games continuing in Beijing. Still, he manages to get through the UK Top 10, and reviews the pointless Star Wars: The Clone Wars, including evidence of brilliantly absurd accents. Plus there's high praise for Hellboy 2, and not so high praise for the Adam Sandler movie, You Don't Mess With The Zohan. Finally, there's Wild Child. It's not very good.

  • Kermode: The Mist, 4 Jul 08
    Published: Jul 4, 08
    Dr Kermode heads back down to Wimbledon for the last time this year, and reviews the new Will Smith movie, Hancock.

  • Kermode: Wanted, 27 Jun 08
    Published: Jun 27, 08
    The bequiffed critic makes his annual trip to SW19 to regard Centre Court with his customary bafflement. Fortunately, the heavens opened and it rained for an hour, which enabled the good Doctor to sound forth, heavily, on James McEvoy's actioner Wanted, with Angelina Jolie and Morgan Freeman. There's wholesome fantasy fun with the new Narnia film, Prince Caspian, and some sexual silliness with A Complete History Of My Sexual Failures. Oh, and a French film about D-Day called Female Agents.
