Help, TheHelp, The (2011)Recommended
3 stars (Good Enough) A nice tale for all the family, not a patch on the novel, but heartfelt and well–intentioned nonetheless.
Avengers, TheAvengers, The (Marvel's Avengers) (2012)Recommended
4 stars (Very Good) One of this year\'s massive blockbusters doesn\'t disappoint in terms of CGI and spectacle, but with so many Marvel characters drawn together at once I have to say that I still find each of the origin stories more compelling.
Hunger Games, TheHunger Games, The (2012)Aro Favourite
3 stars (Good Enough) A decent, albeit fairly shallow, tale that could have been so much more but for its teenage target audience. More mature audiences may prefer to look to Battle Royale.
Community (TV Series)Community (TV Series) (2009)Recommended
5 stars (Exceptional) The freshest, funniest TV series of recent years, this is essential viewing for fans of almost anything. Abed is the key, but each member of the unlikely study group contributes in their own way.
21 Jump Street21 Jump Street (2012)Recommended
5 stars (Exceptional) One of the funniest films of the past half decade, 21 Jump Street is a hilarious combination of an unlikely buddy–cop combo and self–aware buddy–cop cliche. I dare you not to laugh at the \'drug taking\' scene.
Raid, TheRaid, The (The Raid: Redemption) (2011)Aro Favourite
4 stars (Very Good) A hard–hitting, gritty, at times stomach–churning actioner that is among the best of the last decade. A must–see for action and kung fu fans!
Adventures of Tintin: Secret of the UnicornAdventures of Tintin: Secret of the Unicorn (2011)Recommended
3 stars (Good Enough) An avid fan of the books, I found this one little disappointing. The opening scene is fantastic, setting the bar extremely high, but the plot and dialogue are too literal, and by the end I was no longer enthralled.
Billy Connolly's Route 66Billy Connolly's Route 66 (2011)
4 stars (Very Good) Billy has matured with age, and the doco/series is all the better for it. He\'s not crass or rude; he\'s just downright funny. Great ride across the country – wish he had made even more stops along the way!
Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, TheGirl with the Dragon Tattoo, The (2011)Recommended
4 stars (Very Good) Fincher is excellent with dark material, and the story is well told, well acted, and very gripping throughout. A little longer than necessary, but still highly recommended.
Descendants, TheDescendants, The (2011)Recommended
4 stars (Very Good) A good character–driven piece with Clooney showing his range. Not the kind of story that takes us very far, but it's certainly emotional, funny and well–acted.
