on using her platform as a intent on using her platform as a successful american actress, not waiting for a prince charming. clearly, they will be more than the sum of the parts in terms of the platform they can create together. that's pages two and three. we can confirm it will not clash with the fa cup final. thank you, both of you. lovely to see you. we are very grateful for you coming you. lovely to see you. we are very gratefulfor you coming in. breaking news to bring you. we were telling your earlier about a problem at london city airport. it will be close for the foreseeable future until further notice. that is, should i say. it follows the discovery of a world war two peace of ordinance in the king george v dock, part of planned development works. there is now a 200 metre exclusion zone implemented by the police. as a result, the airport is closed. everyone travelling tomorrow

should contact their airline. they are saying did not turn up to get a flight are saying did not turn up to get a flight unless you check in advance. the airport is cooperating with the met police, royal navy, and the burrough of newham, all involved. and now, the film review. hello and welcome to the film review on bbc news. to take us through this week's cinema releases is mark kermode. so mark, what do we have this week? we have black panther, which opens on tuesday. we have pad man, based on a true, inspiring story. and 50 shades freed, it all comes to an end. black panther, why isn't it

opening until tuesday? i presume it is because it will give it a long opening weekend. it has been eagerly awaited. at the beginning of the film, it is a technologically advanced society and they must keep their secrets away from the rest of the world in case it falls into the wrong hands. inevitably, to some extent, it does. the movie pays great attention to character and detail. here is a clip. remote system activated. wait, which side of the road is it? just drive. let's go!

look at your suit. you have been taking bullets. run around the track. where did he go?! show off. that is the most generic stuff. there's much more interesting stuff in the film. its strengths are threefold — it looks great. the world of wakanda is superbly realised. you really feel that you're in that world and it is well evoked. the second thing — it sounds great, everything from the sharp dialogue to the superb music keeps the action moving along.

it really involves you in the characters. it is well played. it is a really good cast. but the most important thing is, you believe in the world of the film. you believe in the characters and you know and understand the characters' motivation. i am not a huge comic book fan. the thing about this is, it works on its own terms as a stand—alone piece. there has been a lot written about the importance of this movie at this moment but it will only work if the film itself works as a rip—roaring piece of entertainment, and it does. it is important. but i look at that and say — as well documented on this programme — action films are not my thing, but they are the thing of my other half.

our debate will be "is it two hours of my life i will never get back?" and she will say, "no, we have to go and see it!" you get the spectacle, all the stuff you want, and it does look and sound wonderful. but you know the characters, you like them and understand them. this is a world where there are no gender imbalances that you often get. men and women are on an equal playing field. when they have the big fight sequences, even i understood who everyone was, who they were fighting, why they were fighting and what they were trying to do with their time. as a piece of drama, it is well laid out. i really enjoyed it. i might have a hope! i am normally nudging going "what? who is this person? why are they doing that?" if i can understand it, anyone can understand it! you give me hope! pad man. sounds really interesting. it is a man in india who invented a low—cost machine

for making sanitary pads. he's credited with breaking the taboo around menstruation. a newly—wed young man who doesn't understand why his new bride spends five days every month out of the house. then he is appalled why the women around him suffer every month. he designs a machine to make low—cost sanitary pads which will not only protect the health of the women but provide employment. but he does so in a culture in which there is a lot of shame around this subject. the director of the film said he wanted to make the story as accessible as possible. he does — it has slapstick comedy, music sequences, laughs, romance and tension. it is a joyful and uplifting film. it is telling the story which has its roots in a real—life story. it is a fictionalised version of a real—life story but it does stick close to the truth.

it is charmingly done and playing to the widest possible audience and succeeding in taking that story and making it completely accessible, and it is charming and uplifting. another hit. fantastic. wonderful story. based on a true story, which is more than can be said for 50 shades freed. we do have twilight to thank for this. the story is, having tamed christian grey, anastasia must see if she can find independence and happiness within their marriage. here is a clip. you do want to have kids someday, right? someday, sure. you don't really sound sure. you know what i am sure about? that's great steak.

christian... do you not want to have kids? of course. one day, just not now. i'm not ready to share you with anyone. he doesn't want children, i can tell her that now! there is a narrative arc. it is easy to sneer at the fifty shades movies because they are not very good. the first one, they tried to do something interesting, but it was too restricted. the second one stuck to the ear—scraping dialogue of the source. it is badly written — the actors are doing their best with pretty intolerable dialogue. james foley is directing on autopilot. he has been given this

as a safe pair of hands. it ends up looking like a promo simply for a glamorous lifestyle for fast cars and designer apartments. although there is some kinky fetishism, it is very peripheral. what the film is interested in, is "look at that private jet!" it is a film about possessions and about those kind of aspirations. in the end, it ends up looking like a commercial or pop promo. it makes you look back to the days of nine and a half weeks and think "wow, what a ground—breaking, citizen kane—like movie that was!" i don't know why people get angry, because it is playing to a certain audience who are devoted to it. it will pack the audiences out on the first weekend. i am clearly not the target audience. as a cinemagoer, the first one was the only one that was vaguely interesting and the next two arejust dull.

fantastically unremarkable. you cannot criticise the cast. if anybody gave you that dialogue to read, laurence olivier would struggle to deliver some of those lines, which are on the level of, "is everything all right?" "can i get you a latte?" laughter. i think i will see black panther. have you seen phantom thread again — the last time we met, you had seen it four times. no, i have not seen it again. i lovejohnny greenwood's score. he's been oscar—nominated. people say they don't like the central character. you are not meant to like him — he is meant to be difficult. lesley manville steals the show. i think it is paul thomas anderson's best film since punch drunk love, and they make a cracked

romance double bill. i would watch phantom thread again, but alongside punch drunk love. there is something about it. there was a debate whether the costumes he designs are deliberately not very good. everybody says he is a fabulous dress designer but the first thing he designs has somebody dressed up like the queen of hearts! but that is kind of the point, i like it. it's certainly a talking point. the dvd, loving vincent. it reminds me of our conversation last week when i said "can you watch blade runner on a dvd?" it is the same about loving vincent. it is an extraordinary achievement in technical terms. an oil painted animated movie —

as far as i know, the world's first. the narrative is a bit flimsy. it is about going back to find out what happened in vincent van gogh's life. i have seen it on the big screen and the small screen and it has the same — it is hypnotising, like watching paintings you know moving around. slightly odd, but stunning. if you have it on dvd, you can go back and watch it again and marvel at the hours of work that must have gone into creating it. six years of painting to create the film. astonishing. thank you. an interesting week. a quick reminder, you can find all the film news and reviews across the bbc on the website. all our previous programmes are on the iplayer as well. that's it for this week, enjoy your cinema—going. goodbye. hello there, it is going to be a

cold night, widespread frost, the risk of ice as well and we will continue to see wintry showers across northern and western parts of the country. for the week ahead forecast, it looks as though it will stay on settled. spells of rain and snow, maybe some disruptive and windy too, but something milder pushing into certain parts of the country towards the end of the week. monday start, frosty note, watch out forice. monday start, frosty note, watch out for ice. we are between with assistance, a ridge of high pressure will bring fine weather and sunshine. temperature wise, 5— eight degrees and there could be one or two wintry showers across northern

and western hills. the winds picks up and western hills. the winds picks up across and western hills. the winds picks up across the hills ahead of the weather system sleeping in overnight across northern ireland initially and then in the western parts of britain. some disruptive snow falling just over the hills, even down to lower levels, particularly across wales and the central northern england and central southern scotland which could cause problems through the day. it will clear although it hang back across the outer lower levels, particularly across wales into central northern england... i'm rico hizon in singapore. the headlines: papua's starving children. as the indonesian authorities say an outbreak of measles is now under control, malnutrition is killing some of the most vulnerable. rescuers search through the snow for bodies after a russian airliner crashes near moscow killing all 71 people on board. i'm sharanjit leyl in london. also in the programme: the sister of the north korean leader, kim jong—un, leaves south korea, but was her visit a propaganda

coup for pyongyang? and one of india's most expensive films ever made and one of the most controversial. we speak to the star of the bollywood movie, padmaavat, about why the cast are getting death threats.
