In an interview promoting the film last year, writer/director Tim Van Dammen described Mega Time Squad as “an absurd time travel crime comedy with a big heart about a loveable rural idiot with modest aspirations who uses a time travel bracelet to steal the money needed to fulfill his dream of moving to the neighbouring town… but he fucks up the time travelling bit.”
I go one further and describe Mega Time Squad as one of the greatest time travel movies ever committed to celluloid.

Shrek Forever After (U)
(Mike Mitchell, 2010, Us)
Mike Myers, Eddie Murphy. 93 mins.
Like us, Shrek yearns for the good old days here, and – somewhat tellingly – the premise finds the green ogre trying to regain his former fearsome edge. Instead, he gets tricked into an alternate reality where he basically has to re-enact the first film all over again. In some ways, such familiarity is a strength as much as a weakness, and it's nice to see these characters again. Compared to the Toy Story trilogy, though, Shrek is merely The Flintstones to Pixar's Simpsons; fun enough, but really no match.
White Material (15)
(Claire Denis, 2009, Fra/Cam)
Isabelle Huppert, Christopher Lambert, Isaach De Bankolé. 106 mins.
After the touchy-feely 35 Shots Of Rum, Denis switches to stronger medicine with a sparse evocation of wartorn west Africa. Huppert is a defiant colonial matriarch striving to keep her family and plantation together.
CrimeFighters (Nc)

Year: 2010

Review by: projectcyclops
Rating: 3 out of 10
It’s difficult to throw too much criticism at a film like CrimeFighters. (although I’m not going to hold back!) While on one hand it’s a film that had absolutely no place in the Eiff line-up, being as it is a super low-budget, badly acted, poorly written and painfully amateur home-made film, but on the other hand it shows some promise and is actually kind of charming in an odd way. The film concerns three geeky friends who hang-out at their local pub and - facing an inexplicable crime wave in their town of York - decide to don masks, costumes and train in Karate to combat the rise in street violence as vigilante heroes: The CrimeFighters.
Ella, Phillip and Daisy meet every night in the pub for a few drinks.
