The Iron Lady
"It looks like this film is in much safer hands than the coal mines (again, ask your dad)..."
MIssion Impossible 4
Crazy stunts and explosions galore - definitely one for the action fans.
The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo
My initial distrust for US remakes gives way when faced with the idea of David Fincher directing, and with a soundtrack from Trent Reznor. If it doesn’t work, you can always just shut your eyes.
Sherlock Holmes 2
The plot thickens as Robert Downey Jr. returns as the world’s most famous fictional detective. I prefer Columbo personally, but the last one was pretty good.
The Thing
Atmospheric horror remake, lots of snow and blood – sounds like last Christmas.
Happy Feet 2
"It also includes the new post Ice Age trend for having incidental comic relief. Instead of a squirrel with an acorn, it’s a pair of existentially pondering krill named Will and Bill..."

"Glittery vampires, werewolves with six packs, yet somehow less than six nipples..."

Machine Gun Preacher

Immortals
"The job falls to a peasant who appears to have been groomed by Zeus since birth like some Olympian rent boy..."
Real Steel

Paranormal Activity 3
"This time the date on the camera is 1988, so we also know that the camera they are using will only have enough battery for an hour’s recording..."
