Kermode Uncut: Star Power

I'm doing the 5 live show from the USA this week and will therefore miss special guest David Tennant in the studio. He's an actor who makes me feel star struck, who would have that effect on you?

Iron Sky premiered at the Berlin Film Festival and now I've had a chance to see it. But is it any good?

Make Your Mind Up

I recently posted about the new film, Killer Joe and confessed that I didn't know immediately whether I liked it or not.
