| Hostage
There's much to admire about this Bruce Willis outing, but precious little to really like about it. A slickly made if preposterously plotted thriller, it has Willis in dour mode as Jeff Talley, an LAPD hostage negotiator who quits his job to become a small-town police chief after an assignment ends in tragedy. Talley's past catches up with him, however, when three teenagers break into the hi-tech home of businessman Walter Smith (Kevin Pollak), taking Smith and his kids hostage. Smith's Mob connections result in Talley's estranged wife and daughter also being caught up in the drama. All this is watchable enough, but without the trademark twinkle and smug self-confidence that Willis brought to the Die Hard series, it becomes just another routine action thriller with delusions of grandeur. By and large, this is a film that misuses its star by taking him, and itself, far too seriously. (Starring:Jeff Talley*Bruce Willis|Walter Smith*Kevin Pollak|Dennis Kelly*Jonathan Tucker|Mars *Ben Foster|Kevin Kelly*Marshall Allman|Jennifer Smith*Michelle Horn|Tommy Smith*Jimmy Bennett|Sean Mack*Jimmy "Jax" Pinchak|The watchman*Kim Coates|Jane Talley*Serena Scott Thomas)

 | Northfork
This last film in writers/directors Mark and Michael Polish's American heartland trilogy (following Twin Falls Idaho and Jackpot) is a wonky study in magical realism that places absurdist tone and somnambulant pacing over cohesive plotting or interesting characterisation. It's 1955 and the small Montana town of Northfork will be flooded when a nearby dam is built. Six men in black attempt to evacuate the remaining stragglers - including a modern-day Noah who has turned his house into an ark and a dying orphan having visions of angels. Aiming for the quirkiness of the Coens and the visual dreaminess of David Lynch, the Polish brothers' fable about the fear of change instead tumbles into pretentious biblical allegory that becomes increasingly obtuse. Nick Nolte, Daryl Hannah, James Woods and Kyle MacLachlan head an impressive cast that's lost in the spaces between failed black comedy and indulgent lingering on isolated vistas.(Starring:Eddie*Peter Coyote|Happy*Anthony Edwards|Irwin*Duel Farnes|Flower Hercules*Daryl Hannah|Mr Hope*Kyle MacLachlan|Father Harlan*Nick Nolte|Walter O'Brien*James Woods|Willis O'Brien*Mark Polish|Marvin*Graham Beckel|Arnold*Jon Gries [Jonathan Gries]|Cod*Ben Foster|Cup of Tea*Robin Sachs|Mr Stalling*Marshall Bell|Mrs Hope*Michele Hicks|Mrs Hadfield*Claire Forlani)
