Paul Rudd re-teams with his Role Models director David Wain in the zany, often hilarious Wanderlust, this time bringing Jennifer Aniston and an impressive supporting cast along for the ride. Riding high on the comedic talent of Rudd, the film avoids becoming a one-note comedy, adding life and laughter into the proceedings before it inevitably falters in the final act. Where it succeeds, Wanderlust never tries to be more than it is, but offers several laughs and highlights the clear talent the...
Jonah Hill plays his usual role of a lazy, fast food-addict loser in this new David Gordon Green picture. The kids he has to mind are funny at points, but he has seen better days (Moneyball and, hopefully, the upcoming '21 Jump Street' remake). 
When Mickey Rooney, Peter Sellers and Bob Hope all appear onscreen in the first 5 minutes of a 2011 Disney family film, you know that the next 2 hours are going to be fantastic. This return to form for Kermit, Piggy, Fozzy and the gang sees Gary (Jason Segal) and his muppet brother Walter travel to Los Angeles to visit the run-down muppet theatre. When they get there, expecting to be visiting a theme park, they find Alan Arkin coughing and spluttering his way through a tour of the dusty build... 
There are so many weak plotlines in this star-studded dud, that I won't bother explaining them all, but it really isn't as bad as they say. Be warned, though, you may need a sick bag when Lea Michelle sings 'Auld Lan's Ayn'. 
Brett Ratner, the man who ruined the 'X-Men' series, returns to the director's chair with this fairly enjoyable action/comedy starring average Ben Stiller and Eddie Murphy, and excellent Alan Alda and Tea Leoni. .jpg)
In this children's comedy, Jim Carrey inherits some penguins from his father, who he was never very close to, and has to look after them. Each penguin has a 'party-piece', one can scream loudly, one wants to fly, one does a lot of farts, another is an idiot and is always walking into walls. After they ruin his chance to impress Angela Landsbury, whom he wants to buy a Central Park restaurant from, at a fancy gala at the Guiggenheim gallery, he tries to get rid of them, but his children have b... 
Just Go With It is a romantic comedy starring popular actors Adam Sandler and Jennifer Aniston. Sandler plays a plastic surgeon called Danny who tricks a woman into falling for him by wearing a fake wedding ring. She says she will only marry him if they go on holiday with his 'wife' and 'kids', who do not exist! Jenny has to play his wife and her two children have to play his kids for the duration of the trip to Hawaii, and while they are there they meet Danny's cousin (pretending to be Germa... 
Steve Carrell and Tina Fey play a bored married couple that want some 'action' for one night. They steal a dinner reservation and get mistaken for criminals, leading to a great chase through New York. It takes a lot of ideas from North by Northwest, one of my favourite films, so I enjoyed it. Watch the trailer below. 
Simon Pegg and Nick Frost star as two nerdy English men travelling to UFO hotspots around the US in this enjoyable comedy. They come across a sarcastic alien called Paul (voiced by Seth Rogen) and take him on their journey. Along the way, they also pick up a mad religious woman (Kristin Wiig), a granny (Robert DiNiro's wife from Meet the..) and a CIA agent (Jason Bateman). Not for children under 10, though, as there is a fair bit of swearing by the alien!
This is a really, really funny and charming children's comedy that adults and children alike will absolutely love! Film of the Year? Maybe! 
Will Ferrell stars in this awful cop comedy. Dwayne THE ROCK Johnson and Samuel L Jackson are credited as having major roles in this film, but after the opening sequence, both are immediately killed off! Ferrell, Mark Wahlberg, Eva Mendes and Steve Coogan are all incredibly boring in their respectful roles. This is a joke from the film: two men are moose hunting in a forest. they simply cannot find a moose to shoot so they decide to split up and go different directions. one is in a small clea... 
Adam Sandler, Chris Rock, David Spade, Rob Schneider, Kevin James and many more star in this incredibly funny comedy about a group of childhood friends who haven't met since they were 12, travelling to a lake resort with their families. A must-see for anyone having a sh*t day!
Jack Black plays a modern, smart-ass version of Jonathan Swift's legendary character Lemuel Gulliver in this remake-of-a-remake-of-a-remake-of-a-remake.......
