Reviews Featuring Scarlett Johansson
Eight Legged Freaks
Average. A few laughs and little else. If you hate spiders, this film is definitely not for you.
Lost in Translation
While it may not exactly change your life, 'Lost in Translation' is a smart, stylish portrait of a romance that never happens, with excellent performances and a message delivered in restrained whisper rather than Hollywood shout.
Girl with a Pearl Earring
A much better title would have been ‘Much Ado About Painting’.
The Perfect Score
A film about exams that tests us in all the wrong ways.
The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie
Just like a real sponge, it is light, vacuous and strange, and keeps things clean for the kids –but adults might wish it were more absorbing.
In Good Company
Please, please, please don’t let the grossly misleading trailers put you off – this isn’t a forgettable rom-com, but a wonderfully observed comedy drama. One of the most enjoyable flicks – and biggest surprises – of the year.
Ghost World
Funny and intelligent in equal measure, this was one of the best, most under-stated movies of the year 2001.
A Good Woman
If the values in this update still seem out-of-date, at least Wilde's original lines still sound fresh.
The Island
It’s loud, proud, and moves at a hundred miles an hour – and it’s also the most mindlessly enjoyable flick of 2005. Check your brain cells at the theatre door and enjoy a trip to ‘The Island’.
Vicky Cristina Barcelona
Not necessarily a bad movie, but despite many solid performances, there’s ultimately a disconnect in this supposed romantic comedy that isn’t really much of either.
The Prestige
Christopher Nolan's magical mystery tour provides impressive plot twists galore and oozes real star quality.
