Peter Bradshaw

<b>MOVIE OF THE WEEK:</b> I only hope that on Oscar night the Academy is not so cauterised with dumbness and cliché that they cannot recognise <i>The Man Who Wasn’t There</i>’s originality and playful brilliance, writes Peter Bradshaw.

Reitman is not ordering us to admire the effects for their own sake: they are subordinate to the script and the actors. For that alone, <i>Evolution</i> deserves to be considered a higher life form among movies, writes Peter Bradshaw.

What a bizarre, sulphuric, directionless satire from Spike Lee <b>Bamboozled</b> is. The title is from a speech by Malcolm X ("You’ve been led astray, led amok. You’ve been bamboozled") and Lee quotes it by unblushingly showing a clip of his own movie with Denzel Washington addressing a crowd.
