ENEMY AT THE GATES
(Cert 15,131 mins) Epic war movie of the Battle of Stalingrad favouring spectacle over emotion. Russian political officer Danilov (Joseph Fiennes) makes soldier Vassili Zaitsev (Jude Law) the face of the Rus sia's battle against the Nazis. When the Germans send marks man Major Konig (Ed Harris) to kill the hero, the pair engage in a taut battle of cunning. This £60 million film initially explodes with the bloody battle, but the rest pales next to such intensity. Law strug gles, Fiennes is unconvincing but Harris lends some weight. While bold and visually stunning, the film's heart stops beating early.

A PERRY MASON MYSTERY: CASE OF THE JEALOUS JOKE STER (1995): Raymond Burr died in 1993, but TV executives still used the title of his most celebrat ed character.

This is one of the funniest films in years, lampoon ing the contestants with glee. Most ot the dialogue is impro vised, and the one-liners will leave you crying with laughter. Rating
BORN ROMANTIC (Cert 15,
96 mins) A bittersweet romantic comedy fol lowing a group of lonely men and women whose lives cross at the same salsa dance class. Fergus (David Morrissey) looks for his old flame Mo (Jane Horrocks). Frankie (Craig Ferguson) pursues posh bird Eleanor (Olivia Williams) in vain. Taxi driver Jimmy (Adrian Lester) ferries them around Lon don, dishing out advice on love and relationships while hiding his own dark secret. Yet this doesn't invest enough time in the charac ters to make us care about them, and the couplings fail to spark Gently humorous rather than laugh-out-loud funny. Rating " * CHOCOLAT (Cer t 12, 121
mins) Adapted from Joanne Harris’s
mouth-watering bestseller, Choco lat is a comic table about tempta tion and the liberating power of the senses. Vianne Rocher (Juliette Binoche) and her six-year-old daughter disrupt a small French village when they appear from nowhere and open a chocolaterie.
