In Brief.... | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2003 | I Capture the Castle | 66 | - | Surprisingly watchable coming-of-age drama about two naive girls brought up in a rundown castle. Held together well by newcomer Romola Garrai as narrator / protaganist Cassandra. | ||
| 2003 | Identity | 67 | - | Seemingly run-of-the-mill slasher thriller that lifts itself slightly above the rest of the pack thanks to a reasonably clever twist and the presence of the infallible John Cusack. | ||
| 1996 | Independence Day | 69 | 65 | Big budget summer spectacular sees Will Smith lead the mighty Americans to save the world from deadly aliens. Again. | ||
| 1999 | Insider, The | 82 | - | The direction of Michael Mann and great performances from Russell Crowe and Al Pacino turn this potentially boring story of tobacco lawsuits into a tightly wound thriller. | ||
| 2002 | Insomnia | 76 | 65 | Al Pacino and Robin Williams star in this excellent cat and mouse thriller. Pacino's depiction of the titular affliction is sure to make your eyelids heavy. | ||
| 1999 | Inspector Gadget | 39 | 59 | Terribly disappointing rendering of the popular cartoon with Matthew Broderick as the hapless detective. | ||
| 2002 | In the Bedroom | 60 | 55 | Dreary family drama notable mainly for great performances from Sissy Spacek and the ever lovely Marisa Tomei. | ||
| 2003 | Intolerable Cruelty | 80 | 49 | Brilliant screwball comedy from those masters of snappy dialogue, the Coen brothers. Clooney and Zeta-Jones sparkle as the smarmy divorce lawyer and scheming man eater, respectively, but the rest of the cast are also right on the mark. | ||
| 2002 | Iris | 70 | 46 | Depressing tale of mental illness but the acting is brilliant lead by Dame Judi Dench as the title character. | ||
| 1999 | Iron Giant, The | 63 | - | Understated and much overlooked big screen version of the classic Ted Hughes novel. One of the first outings for the gravelly voice of Vin Diesel. | ||
| 2003 | Italian Job, The (2003) | 67 | 77 | Elaborate and far-fetched American re-working of elaborate and far fetched British classic heist movie, complete with Minis. It's got all the tension packed thrills, but lacks the charismatic cool of the Ocean's Eleven remake. | ||
| 1942 | It's a Wonderful Life | 94 | - | Frank Capra's classic tale about the value of life and optimism keeps getting better every year. With Jimmy Stewart's most outstanding performance (in a career of outstanding performances), this is the ultimate holiday tear-jerky. They simply do not come much better than this. | ||
