Tue, 29 Nov 2011 01:43:58 +0000 http://www.maxim.co.uk/entertainment/movies/26905/tinker_tailor_soldier_spy.html Banishing from our mind the glamorous, Martini-sipping world of MI6 that James Bond has fed us all these years, Maxim takes a peek through the keyhole at a far grittier, uncompromising view of the 1970s British spy game... Wed, 12 Oct 2011 13:40:20 +0100 http://www.maxim.co.uk/entertainment/movies/25498/attack_the_block_win_a_ps3_console_and_a_copy_of_fifa_2011.html From the producers of Shaun of the Dead, Attack the Block, in cinemas NOW, is the debut film from Joe Cornish (of ‘Adam and Joe’ fame). It tells the story of a group of youths from South London who, after capturing an alien that crash lands to Earth, find themselves protecting their block from a whole invasion, when they’d much rather be at home “playing Fifa”.

Uncompromising, no-holds barred, brutal - call it what you want, we're certainly looking forward to it. Mon, 09 May 2011 12:49:29 +0100 http://www.maxim.co.uk/entertainment/movies/25201/the_hangover_part_ii.html "The Hangover Part II" is director Todd Phillips' follow-up to 2009's smash hit "The Hangover," which became the highest-grossing R-rated comedy of all-time and also won the Golden Globe for Best Film - Comedy or Musical.

Tue, 05 Apr 2011 15:10:15 +0100 http://www.maxim.co.uk/entertainment/movies/25141/your_highness.html Medieval slapstick flick Your Highness couldn't be any further away from James Franco's and Natalie Portman's recent Oscar contenders (127 Hours and Black Swan, respectively), even if was made on the planet Uranus! Wed, 30 Mar 2011 11:19:38 +0100 http://www.maxim.co.uk/entertainment/movies/25138/sucker_punch.html Don't let the horribly girlie posters put you off! If you're male, aged 15-29, slobber over hardbodies and video games like Devil May Cry, then you'll ogle Sucker Punch with wide-eyed joy.  A frantic, predictable action romp from the director of 300 and Watchmen, it's basically hot chicks in fishnets (Abbie Cornish, Vanessa Hudgens etc) stylishly piledriving their way through hordes of robots and dragons.

Wed, 30 Mar 2011 09:31:10 +0100 http://www.maxim.co.uk/entertainment/movies/25114/killing_bono.html Probably inspired by real-life rockumentary Dig!, whereby one band achieves stardom (Dandy Warhols) and the other cocks it up calamitously (Brian Jonestown Massacre), this follows two rival yet chummy school bands in Ireland. Wed, 30 Mar 2011 09:25:43 +0100 http://www.maxim.co.uk/entertainment/movies/24946/terry.html "Spits in the sink of most British crime dramas."

Tue, 08 Mar 2011 14:37:04 +0000 http://www.maxim.co.uk/entertainment/movies/24910/ironclad.html A brutal, gruesome, limb-slashing monster of a slash-em-up with Paul Giamatti as the tyrannical (and ever-so-slightly amusing) King John. A surprising and edfiying hit we reckon. WORLD EXCLUSIVE CLIP BELOW!

Wed, 02 Mar 2011 09:50:28 +0000 http://www.maxim.co.uk/entertainment/movies/23518/submarine.html The directing debut of IT Crowd geek Richard Ayoade sees a 15-year-old Welsh kid trying to pop his cherry. Yet rather than scenes of high-school dorks gyrating inside fruit pies, this quirky flick features kung fu cult sex fantasies and Paddy Considine's mullet![video src="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nxQFjhPmG5Y" /] Wed, 02 Mar 2011 09:50:26 +0000 http://www.maxim.co.uk/entertainment/movies/24874/and_soon_the_darkness.html 'Stunning Amber Heard'. Three words explaining why we're covering this generic thriller about a 20-summat who gets kidnapped in sweltering Argentina.
