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 a proper mixed bag. we have crawl which promises to do for alligators whatjaws did for sharks. pain and glory the award—winning film from pedro almodovar. and angel has fallen, gerard butler is back. for alligators to start with. we have had alligators in films like i believe lake placid? i think technically that is a giant crocodile. director by the person that made piranha 3d and switchblade romance. story is a the story is a swimmer from the university of florida goes back home and she finds out herfather is in his house in a hurricane zone and she cannot

get in touch with him and she goes to the house to go and check that he is all right. when she gets there, everything is flooded and wouldn't you know it, there are huge alligators in the water. here is a clip. come on! watch out! that is no ordinary flood, is it? so you can see the jaws—iness to it, or elements of it. there's another one called bait, putting sharks in a supermarket.

this film costed around $13 million, it is a perfectly efficient, exploitive b—movie creature feature in which it works because it has good performances and you like the characters. the father daughter relationship works well because partly there are no surprises but that includes there is no surprising mistakes. sometimes you can see the bit of production in the film a little bit, but it is done well. the director alexandre aja knows how to put this stuff together. there are a few laught—out—loud funny lines that it like, "we are not going to be out—smarted by these pea—brained reptiles!" thch reminds me of a line from snakes on a plane, it is a straightforward unpretentious monster rampage movie. and it understands the parameters of what it can do, it is all set at the house, there is a basement that does all the set up you can do and it does it all in a kind of snappy efficiency.

snappy, good. it will not win pulitzer prizes or oscars but it does exactly what it sets out to do. not all the people on my list survive i imagine. i would not spoil anything. pedro almodovar you mentioned a moment ago and pain and glory. i'm a huge fan anyway. this is a very personal semi—autobiography... about antony banderas, becomes physical and metaphysical. with pain. he has had a back operation and has this back pain. he is in a moment of stasis in his life where there is a revival of a film he made 30 years ago with an actor he has not spoken to for 30 years which forces them to get back together again. and whilst the present—day plot is moving forward, he is cast back to memories of his childhood, members of his mother washing clothes in a stream, memories of a time they lived in a cave dwelling. memories of going first to the cinema and seeing movies projected against whitewashed walls.

so the whole film ebbs and flows with the tide. it is be if we done, it is very personal. there is a great performance by penalty crews as a younger embodiment of the character's mother. antonio banderas i've never seen him be quite so vulnerable. his face is this mask of melancholia but yet the childhood reminiscence here is so vivid and vibrant that these two things are living side by side. on the one hand the ecstasy of his childhood memories but finally enough there is a different film—maker. a comparison here between the work of pedro almodovar and terrence davis. he removes his childhood with his mother singing and memories of the cinema. a very personal movie. not pretty autobiographical. there are hints? there are hints of it. what he has done is taken the real story in fictionalised it and just taken elements.

but there are some things you can see her absolutely personal and particularly the portrayal of the figure of his mother. i thought was terrific and i thought antonio banderas should be up for an oscar nomination after this. that is big. ok, on to angel has fallen. where are you with the series? whoever who would've ever thought? olympus has fallen which was the not—good version of white house down. i hated london has fallen in which most of london's known landmarks which were destroyed and then there was this terrible line, "what about the unknown landmarks? " well, gerard butler is back and is framed for the an attack on the president's life. here's the clip. what is that? are they bats?

high-pitched buzzing. they're drones, they're drones! on radio: art! come with me, sir! get him under the ballistic hard cover, keep him down. i'm on my way! all yelling. delta team engage, engage! they scream. i didn't think that would end well. i think this is the best of the has fallen series. for a number of reasons because firstly again in much of the way of crawl, it understands its reasons. gerard butler, was brilliant in vanishing, it has the right register here. a great performance

by danny huston who is chewing through the scenery... nick nolte turns up as gerard butler's dad. and he is doing that nick nolte thing where he is "i am a vietnam veteran living off the grid", and i really enjoyed it. i do not expect they was going to at all because i hated one did has fallen. i went into this thinking are we getting more of the same and i remember the basic critical reviews have not been well received. but in the screen i was in it and in the audience as soon as nick nolte turned up, it became but the father and son thing, people started laughing, enjoying it and that laughter continued right the way through the end credits. of all the has fallen ones, this is the best. that is slightly damning. i saw a lot of accommodations for nick nolte. he is great. he has almost become a caricature of nick nolte there are whole lines of dialogue that are... and gerard butler says "you always say that!" moving on from your nick nolte impersonations.

let's talk about the best film out at the moment. are you a bruce springsteen event? iam. i am not. i have nothing against him, but anyway. this is best on a memoir of the scriptwriter. and it is a story about a young man who connects with the music of bruce springsteen despite the fact that his life has nothing to do with bruce springsteen's life. it is directed by gurinder chadha, who directed bend it like beckham. bursting in the song that sunshine on leith did. i thought it was charming. you can pick holes in it, but i thought it was really charming and it moved me and made me laugh, it made me cry. i just love the idea that music is universal. somebody on the other side of the atlantic with a completely different life from you can write songs that means so that you and is particular in the world you live in. and even if you are not a bruce springsteen fan. nothing against him, but he bobs around, that is all...

let's talk about the best dvd. wild rose which is this lovely film about recent single mum who is a country western singer and goes to nashville... jesse buckley has recorded a country album, she is fantastic. she is really great and what i love about this is it has its feet on the ground but it is has his head in the stars and i began to understands how music can transport new and take you from one place into another. gritty and realistic but also romantic in his romantic view of the world. the idea that you can dream large in such a great central performance. i thought it was really good. her singing voice is outstanding. she can really sing and i did an onstage interview with her and i asked if she would mind singing a song and she did and i said, "fine you are the real deal!" she can make it but she can also act. i thought was a really lovely film.

good stuff, thank you mark. that's it for this week though. thanks for watching. goodbye. hello there, many of us have had some warm spells of sunshine today, but as you look at the forecast it's going to get even hotter in temperatures for some push—ups of the 30 celsius mark over the next couple of days the cell picture today shows that there is cloud across the north and west of the country and this is rained during cloud we are going to see wet weather move—in overnight and affect parts of northwest scotland and northern ireland but into the weekend ahead of that system we are going to start to pull up our air from the near continent so this is what's going on. overnight some thicker cloud works and to the scottish highlands and ireland and the rain not too far way from northern ireland, you can see it here for a time commingle to whales at the dry picture as it is across

most of scotland away from the northwest corner, some clear spells may be a few missed patches but a mild night. iwanted may be a few missed patches but a mild night. i wanted to saturday's forecast, this high—pressure is going to start to skew the winds we re going to start to skew the winds were the southeast direction and a means temperatures will be posted by the warmer air coming means temperatures will be posted by the warmeraircoming in means temperatures will be posted by the warmer air coming in from europe. weather—wise on saturday, could be a little bit of low cloud to start the day in a few places but it will burn away with some sunshine. across the northwest areas the cloud to be thick enough to bring a few showers and from time to time. temperatures underneath that cloud zone generally low 20s but weather—wise the sunshine comes out wildly up to 30 or so across parts of eastern england, sunday's forecast more of the same to come really a few showers across western areas but largely dry picture. and in the sunshine ice temperatures up to 24 in the sunshine ice temperatures up to 2a in edinburgh and newcastle up to 2a in edinburgh and newcastle up to 30 degrees towards london and southeast england. just to be a bit of uncertainty in the forecast

through monday, although from many of us is going to be another dry day with spells of sunshine coming and going, we could though see a few changes in the forecast, it's not out of the question that we see some showers break out particularly across southern parts of england and this weather front towards the northwest of the uk, it slow down a bit so it may not get into northwest of scotland, there are some changes that we might see in the forecast before monday, but for most of us another dry one, a sunny one with temperatures generally into the 20s and perhaps the high 20s in the warmest spots. looking beyond that looks like the weather will be cooling down the warmest weather 00:14:35,665 --> 4294966103:13:29,430 across eastern england.
