These could include the idea of classical music in space, realistic science concepts, the HAL computer and some confusing stuff about a huge ... Read the complete review

My top list for 2001 goes a little summat like this(at least, I think these were all released in 2001)...bearing in mind I tend to make a point of missing anything tagged with "ought to win Oscars" until all the hype has buggered off and I haven't seen some of the supposed best movies of 2001.

Pictures like American Beauty and Erin Brokivich are along way from Schindlers List ... Read the complete review

As ever with these top ten film lists, they're made more difficult to compile if you haven't actually seen every film released, and hence you inevitably end up with a list which is biased according to your individual tastes and preferences. For example, there are some films, released in 2001, which really didn't appeal to me ... Read the complete review
