IN A NUTSHELL
Dear Family Guy. Movie references are not substitutes for jokes, even if there's one every two seconds. Stop it. Now.

ACTION
Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (12A)
Dreamworks, £19.99
2/5
IN A NUTSHELL
It's full of all the shiny battling robots that you'd expect, but the plot is oddly bloated for a simple action movie

SCI-FI

Halcyon, £19.99
2/5
IN A NUTSHELL
Rumours still circle that the ending was hastily changed, but does it matter when the rest of the movie is lacklustre anyway?

DISNEY TEEN FRANCHISE
Hannah Montana: The Movie (U)

4/5
IN A NUTSHELL
A testing canter through Indian squalor, with whiplash visuals and dazzling charms.

COMIC BOOK ACTION
The Spirit (12A)
2/5
IN A NUTSHELL
The visuals may be swathed in glorious comic book blacks, red and whites, but there's a feeling that the style was more effective in Sin City.

COMEDY
Role Models (15)
4/5
IN A NUTSHELL
It's got less unexpected twists and turns than a matchstick, but it's still soothingly funny.

"Painfully slick dance numbers from Disney's pre-teen phenomenon"

Burn After Reading (15)
Off-beat Coen comedy
4/5
