What Happens in Vegas Ashton Kutcher and Cameron Diaz visit Sin City for a rom(p)-com, but What Happens in Vegas doesn’t stay in Vegas. It doesn’t stay in your mind for long either. |

Speed Racer Go, Speed Racer, you’re burning up the quarter mile! Er, right – seriously though, this cartoon-come-to-life works better in its off-road moments as a fun romp with a surprisingly well-told tale. |
||||
 |
The Slit Mouthed Woman There’s a new ghost in town. She wears a trenchcoat and a surgical mask. And she has really ... big ... scissors. |
||||
 |
Iron Man Yes, the rumours are true: this one *is* that damn good. The armoured Avenger’s big screen debut is a geekfest filled with humour, charm and excellent performances. Some avenging, even. |

 |
The Forbidden Kingdom A lightweight pairing of two titans of martial arts cinema that sometimes gets a wee bit too dark to be fun, but it hardly stops moving and the action sequences are exciting. Doesn’t grab you storywise, though. |

 |
Congkak Mum has a bad feeling about their new house in the countryside, Dad thinks what mumbo jumbo, the teen kid rolls her eyes, and her young sister sees dead people — what ensues is unintended comedy. |
||||
 |
Fool's Gold A treasure-hunting adventure that frequently comes close to wearing out its welcome, but saves itself by tossing a few nick-of-time gems at the viewer. |
||||
 |
The Kite Runner The Kite Runner is one of the best movies to grace the silver screen in a long while. A moving and emotional tale set in unstable Afghanistan, it spans a generation of war and uncertainty and is a must-watch for those who value family, friendship and love. |
||||
 |
Street Kings A modern cop thriller with an L.A. Confidential vibe, this is an uneven but gritty and brutal look at police corruption, and life in that grey zone between light and shadow. |
||||
 |
Feast of Love It is better to have lived and loved, than never to have loved at all? Ooh, the moral of the story is so clichéd, but the movie is surprisingly enjoyable. |
