Transcendence (out Apr 24) is the story of a woman who uploads the consciousness of her dead husband into a computer and in doing so, creates artificial intelligence. This film doesn't work, doesn't flow. There are too many gaps in the story and too many WTF moments from Rebecca Hall's bizarre character (who displays a surprising lack of intelligence given her position). Grade: C.

The Other Woman (out now) follows Kate, Carly & Amber as they extract revenge on the same guy who has been cheating on them. The film starts promisingly. I liked Cameron Diaz's no-nonsense style. Unfortunately, things are too stupid, too convenient in the final hour. A better script was needed. Grade: C+.

The Amazing Spider-Man 2 (out Apr 17) is poor. Almost every subplot is underdeveloped. The villains are confusing with no real plans. Emma Stone, who had plenty to do in the 2012 reboot, feels like a token love interest this time around. It culminates with a big action finale that is just a mess of sound and visual effects (with an overuse of slow motion). A shame. Grade: C+.

The Invisible Woman (out Apr 17) is scrutinises the relationship between a 45-year-old Charles Dickens and an 18-year-old woman named Ellen Ternan. This is a satisfying romantic drama that explores a very complex relationship. Did they have any chance at a happy ending? Grade: B+.

Only Lovers Left Alive (out Apr 17) stars Tilda Swinton and Tom Hiddleston has two vampire lovers trying to conceal their identity while ensuring they enough blood for the next meal. It was a little slow for my liking but seeing these two great actors have fun with the premise makes it worth your attention. Grade: B.

Chinese Puzzle (out Apr 17) is the third film in the "Spanish Apartment" series and its by far the weakest. Xavier travels to New York in search of inspiration and also to spend time with his two children (currently living with his ex-wife). These characters were more interesting as youngsters and the subplots in this installment didn't offer much. Grade: C+.

Any Day Now (out Apr 10) is set in the 1970s follows a gay couple's attempts to adopt a disabled child. A few scenes will pull at the heartstrings but there are some moments which feels a little too manipulative, one-sided. A great leading performance from Alan Cumming. Grade: B-.

Divergent (out Apr 10) is set in the not-too-distant future where citizens are categorized into groups and then controlled by an interfering government. I don't mind the idea but I struggled to buy into this world. Too many gaps, too many elements that didn't ring true. Grade: B-.

Muppets Most Wanted (out Apr 10) centres on an evil frog and his submissive henchman who use try to frame the Muppets in "greatest robbery of all time". The musical numbers aren't as memorable and it lacks the charm of Amy Adams and Jason Segel. I still had fun though. Tina Fey is a welcome inclusion. Grade: B+.

The Grand Budapest Hotel (out Apr 10) will be familiar to any Wes Anderson fan because of its quality cast, quirky storyline and distinctive style. I'm describing it as a screwball crime caper with a layer of sentimentality. Quaint, charming and poignant. A film to be enjoyed multiple times. Grade: A-.
