Jingle Ma proves that he can make a credible Chinese epic movie without an Olympic-sized budget, artsy pretensions, forced Shakespearean comparisons, strained dialogue, or Jay Chou!

Roland Emmerich destroys the Earth once again this year, in 2012. How would you like your planet and civilisation destroyed? Emmerich serves us apocalypse Mayan-style this time. CGI-fans are in for a treat: we have earthquakes, an exploding super-volcano, tsunamis and more for you. 

Cinema’s most exciting rebel Quentin Tarantino is back with a World War II movie that rewrites history in the most outrageous fashion. Inglourious Basterds is gloriously entertaining.

G.I. Joe does not pretend to be anything but a movie big on action. However Channing Taturn in that tight outfit alone could be the most compelling reason for most Fridae members.   

Director Tony Scott tries too hard to give his action thriller The Taking of Pelham 1 2 3 a social conscience. As a result, the action slows down just when it should be revving up.
