MOVIE POSTERS: The Girl with a Dagger in Her Back


The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo is one of those novels that has been shadowed in controversy. The author's untimely death, a quick-draw Hollywood remake, David Fincher's casting of the title character and now a movie poster that some say is a sign of the times.

NOW SHOWING: Watch 'The Great Debaters' Online


The Great Debaters is a drama based on the true story of Melvin B. Tolson, a Professor at Wiley College, Texas whose debate team went on to face Harvard in an age when racial prejudice was "institutionalised" in America.

This film has heart, is backed by solid performances from a fresh-faced cast and has been treated with great sensitivity by Denzel Washington, who gives the film its backbone as its star and director. Good production values and an uplifting story elevate the film beyond the bounds of formula.

MOVIE TRAILER: In Time (2011)


New Zealand born writer-director, Andrew Niccol (Lord of War, Gattaca) has unveiled his latest science-fiction project, In Time. This man-on-the-run thriller stars Justin Timberlake, Amanda Seyfried and Cillian Murphy in a world where people stop aging at 25 and are forced to work to buy themselves more time.

An original science-fiction concept from the writer of The Truman Show, this movie trailer makes the film look really promising with touches of Minority Report and Inception, but will it live up to Niccol's Gattaca or fall short of greatness like S1m0ne? Casting Justin Timberlake as an action-hero is a big call. He's proved his worth in The Social Network, with a lead role in Friends with Benefits - but can he pull it off with Amanda Seyfried in support.

MOVIE TRAILER: Battleship (2012)



Just when you thought they couldn't get any cheesier or '80s than Top Gun with Maverick (Tom Cruise) and Iceman (Val Kilmer) now known as Ice-Cream, they make Battleship. No, this is not based on the popular game, Battleships. Although you should anticipate people calling out ridiculous phrases that would crop up in the actual game... like "I've sunk your battleship". The movie stars Alexander Skarsgard as Stone Hopper, Liam Neeson as Admiral Shane and Brooklyn Decker that "Baywatch" babe from Just Go With It.
