The Last Impresario (out Jun 26) is a documentary that takes us inside the world of Michael White - a Scottish film and theatre producer who loved to take chances and loved to party. It feels a little too much like a "back patting" exercise in places but there are some nice interviews and it provides insight into life in the 60s and 70s. Grade: B.

Transformers: Age Of Extinction (out Jun 26) is all so tiringly unoriginal. It provides action with zero tension. It’s also surprising how little story there is given the 165 minute running time. Aside from the stellar efforts from the visual effects team, it feels like an amalgamation of action clichés. Grade: C+.

Gabrielle (out now) is a French romantic drama about a young, music-loving woman with Williams syndrome who discovers love for the first time. I wasn't fully convinced by the finale but it's a sweet, complex journey that takes us through the full gamut of emotions. Grade: B+.

The Two Faces Of January (out Jun 19) is based on the novel by Patricia Highsmith (The Talented Mr Ripley) and is a seductive thriller set in 1960s Greece that revolves around a murder. Characters' motivations are sketchy and that's part of this film's charm. We’ve all got a bit of good in us. We’ve all got a bit of bad in us. Grade: B+.

22 Jump Street (out Jun 19) has two goals in mind - (1) spoofing sequels by poking fun at their predictable elements, and (2) mocking the homoeroticism that underlies many buddy comedies. There are laughs to be had... but the film overplays many of its jokes. Not quite enough material to go the distance. Grade: B.

How To Train Your Dragon 2 (out Jun 19) isn't as exciting as the original. I enjoyed the first film for it's heart warming nature and it's tale of a boy bonding with a dragon. This sequel seems to be more about action with an array of elaborate "dragon fighting" sequences. Grade: B-.

Frank (out Jun 19) is an odd film centred on a struggling band trying to create a new album and a guy with a giant papier-mâché head who never takes it off. I was looking for more to grasp onto here. Was a struggle to work out what this film wanted to be and what I should be taking away. Grade: B-.

Blended (out now) is not very good (to put it politely). It's the story of two single parents (Adam Sandler & Drew Barrymore) who meet on a blind date and end up taking their respective children on an African adventure. There's no wit, no charm to any of the jokes. It's not even risqué. Grade: C.

The Rover (out Jun 12) is a grim, futuristic Australian drama about a "man with nothing to lose" who embarks on a quest through the remote outback to find his stolen car. This is an intense film. Music is kept to a minimum. Conversation is kept to a minimum. Guy Pearce and Robert Pattinson are fantastic in the leading roles. Grade: A-.

The Face Of Love (out Jun 12) is a film that's really hard to take seriously. A woman falls in love with a guy who is the spitting image of her late husband. It's hard to watch Annette Bening and Ed Harris delivering such corny dialogue and offering such forced, over-the-top facial expressions. Grade: C.
