| Welcome to the Now Playing Reviews Database where
you can find our opinion of films which have had a cinema release in the UK.
Each of these movies are reviewed from a gay perspective, giving them
both an overall star rating plus our exclusive gay rating. The more stars out of a possible 10, the
better the film; similarly the more pink triangles, the greater the gay interest. A full list of
all our reviews appears below, and this week's current films are found on the Now Playing Main Page.
Most films are now available for rent on DVD and we recommend ScreenSelect who operate an efficient online rental service by post with no late fees and you can keep up to 3 DVDs for as long as you like. If you'd like a film permanently in your DVD collection, then the best prices are normally found at Amazon. | |
Lara Croft Tomb Raider : The Cradle Of Life Movie Rating: 
Not Recommended | |
| After an earthquake exposes a long-buried temple, archaeologist Lara Croft (Angelina Jolie) and her colleagues discover a map that leads to Pandora's fabled box. When bio-weapons dealer Jonathan Reiss (Ciaran Hinds) steals the map, Croft and her mercenary ex-boyfriend, Terry Sheridan (Gerard Butler), traverse the globe in a race to catch up with Reiss before he reaches the box and unleashes the deadly plague locked inside it. The action never lets up in this adventure yarn, which is small consolation for a movie that is also ear-splittingly loud, brutishly violent, and just plain stupid. The computer-generated special effects are awful, ensuring that the film never even rises to the level of a live-action cartoon. |
