I AM LEGEND (Francis Lawrence)
7/10
'Intense opening, carried well by Smith but the neatness of the ending felt a little disappointing'


I LOVE YOU, MAN (John Hamburg)
7/10
'Pleasantly amusing behavioural comedy that successfully probes the notion of male bonding'


I NOW PRONOUNCE YOU CHUCK & LARRY (Dennis Dugan)
3/10
'Typical homophobic nonsense, saved only by an entertaining performance from Kevin James'


I, ROBOT (Alex Proyas)
7/10
'Cast Asimov far from your mind and you may just enjoy this far-fetched flick'


I WANT CANDY (Stephen Surjik)
1/10
'Painfully unfunny and an embarrassment to amateur filmmakers across the country'


ICE AGE (Chris Wedge)
7/10
'Fun, light-hearted family film'


ICE AGE 2: THE MELTDOWN (Carlos Saldanha)
6/10
'Good sequel but lacks the soul of the original'


ICE AGE 3: DAWN OF THE DINOSAURS (Carlos Saldanha)
5/10
'Another step down the 'why did they make another one' series - still, rather amusing for what it was'


IGOR (Anthony Leondis)
7/10
'Not nearly the best in its genre but certainly an entertaining Halloween release'


THE ILLUSIONIST (Neil Burger)
7/10
'Had an element of realism been injected it would be a strong contender for The Prestige's title, unfortunately, it's a bit of a one-trick-wonder'


IMAGINE ME & YOU (Ol Parker)
7/10
'Not the most challenging nor original pieces ever, but a touching addition to the genre'


IN BRUGES (Martin McDonagh)
9/10
'I don't usually say this but In Bruges is a delightfully entertaining film that I simply cannot wait to see again'


IN GOOD COMPANY (Paul Weitz)
6/10
'Honest storytelling... but sometimes honesty is the most boring policy'

IN THE LOOP (Armando Iannucci)
8/10
'Incredibly amusing political satire rife with intelligent observations and performances'

IN THE NAME OF THE KING: A DUNGEON SIEGE TALE (Uwe Boll)
1/10
'Why is Uwe Boll allowed to direct? Honestly? Even Michael Bay makes at leastone good movie per decade... and he's Michael Bay: Purveyor Of Filth!'


INCEPTION (Christopher Nolan)
10/10
'The art of cinema has a new high bar.. there is simply nothing else to say'


THE INCREDIBLE HULK (Louise Leterrier)
8/10
'I greatly underestimated the return of the hulk but I am pleased to say, this film was very well done'


THE INCREDIBLES (Brad Bird)
8/10
'Another pixar wonder'


INDIANA JONES: RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK (Steven Spielberg)
10/10
'One of the greatest action adventure films ever made!'


INDIANA JONES AND THE TEMPLE OF DOOM (Steven Spielberg)
8/10
'Extremely entertaining sequel but a long fall from the original'


INDIANA JONES AND THE LAST CRUSADE (Steven Spielberg)
10/10
'Another glorious Jones outing, easily on par with the original'


INDIANA JONES AND THE KINGDOM OF THE CRYSTAL SKULL (Steven Spielberg)
8/10
'A very solid and worthy addition to the Jones series but I'm quietly confident it may receive somewhat mixed reviews from others. If you ask me, this is a fine example of adventure film making'


INGLOURIOUS BASTERDS (Quentin Tarantino)
8/10
'Blisteringly daring and innovative; a work of sheer excellence that dances along the thin blade that divides madness and brilliance'

INKHEART (Iain Softley)
5/10
'A book encouraging kids to discover the magic of reading gets a very underwhelming cinematic release... and nobody has a problem with that?'


INSIDE MAN (Spike Lee)
7/10
'Rather respectable but too many unnecessary moments ruin what, at heart, is a fairly decent heist flick'


THE INTERNATIONAL (Tom Tykwer)
6/10
'Average conspiracy thriller with a few standout moments'


THE INTERPRETER (Sydney Pollack)
6/10
'Plays out well but too disposable to care'


INTERVIEW WITH THE VAMPIRE (Neil Jordan)
8/10
'The weepy vampire nonsense gets a little tired but the acting, cinematography and direction more than make up for the glaring flaws'


INTO THE WILD (Sean Penn)
810
'A truly beautiful and inspirational film'


INTOLERABLE CRUELTY (Joel Coen & Ethan Coen)
3/10
'Every director has their turkey, this is the Coen's'


THE INVASION (Oliver Hirschbiegel)
4/10
'Disappointing remake from a truly talented director'


THE INVENTION OF LYING (Ricky Gervais & Matthew Robinson)
7/10
'Not the first film to let a brilliant concept go to waste but one of the only releases to still produce something of merit overall'


INVICTUS (Clint Eastwood)
8/10
'A tad romanticised but a very well executed biopic with a fantastic lead performance'


IRON MAN (Jon Favreau)
9/10
'A truly entertaining early summer blockbuster - and the marvel adaptation hits just keep on coming'


IRON MAN 2 (Jon Favreau)
9/10
'An extremely healthy follow-up finding a perfect middle-ground between action, comedy and drama'


IS THERE ANYBODY THERE? (John Crowley)
7/10
'Moody exploratory piece that suffers only in the absence of its lead'


THE ISLAND (Michael Bay)
6/10
'A great concept, dumbed down by the director of Pearl Harbour, if you want a better version of this read Kazuo Ishiguro's Never Let Me Go'


IT'S A BOY GIRL THING (Nick Hurran)
2/10
'It's another crappy teen body-swap flick that deserves little-to-no attention'


IT'S A WONDERFUL LIFE (Frank Capra)
9/10
'Delightful seasonal film, certainly one of Capra's best'


IT'S ALL GONE PETE TONG (Michael Dowse)
6/10
'Not really my schtick, but a good comedy none-the-less'


IVAN GROZNYY I (Sergei M. Eisenstein)
[Ivan The Terrible: Part I - Russian]
