3. Perfect Stranger (15) Halle Berry, Bruce Willis

4. Shaun the Sheep – Shape up with Shaun (U) Shaun the Sheep
Eight Brand new animated adventures with Shaun from the award winning creators of Wallace and Gromit.

5. Factory Girl – Sienna Miller / Guy Pearce
Miller plays a (surprisingly) fantastic role as New York socialite Edie Sedgwick who befriends Andy Warhol and is subsequently made a movie star. What follows in this fictionalized story is her ultimate demise. Excellent casting. We recommend.

6. Casino Royale – Daniel Craig and Eva Green
Introducing both James Bond before he holds his license to kill and Daniel Craig as the new Bond, Casino Royale (Ian Fleming’s first James Bond novel) ditches the cheesy lines of earlier films and opts for a smoother and more ‘professional’ stance, that reminds me of BBC’s Spooks. Expect fast cars, free running and lots of high tech gadgets!
