PICK OF THE WEEK
127 Hours : Just one of the seven nominees that deserved a Best Picture Oscar more than The Kings Speech, this truly thrilling tale of survival is sometimes harrowing but only as gory as it absolutely has to be.
OTHER TOP PICKS
Out of Sight : Steven Soderberghs 1998 Elmore Leonard adaptation, just out on Blu-ray, can be celebrated for two things in addition to its high entertainment value: making it clear that George Clooney, fresh from duelling duds The Peacemaker and Batman& Robin, deserved a big-screen career; and giving film history the single worthwhile movie performance in Jennifer Lopezs career.
