Directed by: Aaron Woodley Starring: Jeremy Renner, Heidi Klum, James Franco Running time: 1h 32min We start with a film for the kids. At the outset we have to say that Arctic Dogs(or Polar Squad or Arctic Justice – whatever it’s titled this week) did not set out to win awards. It’s aimed straight between children’s eyes and, at this level, it work...
Directed by: Johnny Martin Starring: Al Pacino, Karl Urban, Brittany Snow Running time: 1h 38min Fundamentally Hangmanis another hackeyned buddy cop film with a serial killer following a weird theme. If all you want to do is compare it to the plethora of similar formulaic movies, OK. But it’s still worth a chance as the story concept is good. The d...
Directed by: Dennie Gordon Starring: Amanda Bynes, Colin Firth, Kelly Preston Running time: 1h 45min Not to be confused with Mel Gibson rom-com What Women Want, What a Girl Wantsis an easy estranged father/ daughter story that spans the Altlantic ocean. While the set up is spurious, the relationship is believable and the story has its roots in film...
Directed by: Dean Parisot Starring: Jim Carrey, Téa Leoni, Alec Baldwin Running time: 1h 30min We often get vocal about remakes that should never have happened. While the 1977 original was a perfectly good movie, it was one of those unusual films that benefitted from an upgrade to more modern times. Having a hyper-active Jim Carrey doesn’t do any h...
Directed by: Rob Letterman Starring: Jack Black, Dylan Minnette, Odeya Rush Running time: 1h 43min Off Netflix and almost immediately back again, Goosebumps is a family-friendly monsters movie with some nice special effects and quality performances from a largely unknown supporting cast. Jack Black in the lead role is his usual competent self. Base...
Directed by: Rob Cohen Starring: Dennis Quaid, Sean Connery, Dina Meyer Running time: 1h 55min You can’t beat a bit of dragon slaying. It’s a great way to spend a weekend. We must be careful not to drive them into extinction. Dragonheartwas nominated for the visual effects Oscar and no wonder. The dragon voiced by Sean Connery is really very good. ...
Directed by: Wolfgang Petersen Starring: Dustin Hoffman, Rene Russo, Morgan Freeman Running time: 2h 7min Jump on a bandwagon? Who us? A deadly virus has arrived from overseas and is spreading rapidly. No, no, no. In the film. Dustin Hoffman carries off a rare bit of miscasting with aplomb. Is there anything to learn here? Probably not. But it migh...
Directed by: Andy Tennant Starring: Will Smith, Eva Mendes, Kevin James Running time: 2h 10min Apparently there are professional “date doctors” out there. Hitch is one. He’s not very good at it when it comes to his own relationships and this is the conceit of the comedy here. Beneath the layers of stereotyping, the film actually has a deep look at ...
Directed by: Robert Zemeckis Starring: Harrison Ford, Michelle Pfeiffer, Katharine Towne Running time: 1h 44min To remind you, Back to the Future, Who Framed Roger Rabbit and Forrest Gump were some of Zemeckis early films and speak to his versatility and skill. And in the hands of another director, this movie might not have worked. Delivered by a, ...
Directed by: Tim Burton Starring: Johnny Depp, Freddie Highmore, David Kelly Running time: 1h 55min Charlie and the Chocolate Factoryis one of the great collaborations between Tim Burton and Johnny Depp. The morality tale was first visited with Gene Wilder in the role of Willy Wonka, owner of the said Chocolate Factory, and we have this in our list...

- 365 Days. A surprise hit for Netflix, 365 Days (aka 365 Dni) was a Polish romantic thriller that raised temperatures (and eyebrows) across the world for its explicit sex scenes.
- Enola Holmes. The next major Netflix franchise looks likely to be Enola Holmes, starring Millie Bobby Brown as the feisty sister of Sherlock. While fans wait for the next season of Stranger Things (which is currently filming), they were more than willing to watch Eleven herself as a sassy sleuth.
- The Christmas Chronicles: Part 2. In a year where many Christmas films topped the Netflix charts, nothing could beat the festive sequel that saw Russell team-up with real-life wife Goldie Hawn for another edition of holiday cheer that also propelled the original movie into the most-watched chart.
- Holidate. As a Christmas romcom, Netflix was almost precision-tooled to be a big hit for the streamer, and so it proved, with the Emma Roberts-starring movie staying in global charts from October until the end of the holiday season.
