This week's new films

Headhunters (15) (Morten Tyldum, 2011, Nor/Ger) Aksel Hennie, Synnøve Macody Lund, Nikolaj Coster-Waldau, Eivind Sander. 100 mins It's a Scandinavian crime thriller, but for once, this isn't like The Killing or The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo. It's closer to the Coen brothers, with enough unpredictable plot turns, eccentric touches and morbid laughs to banish the Nordic darkness. There's something of Steve Buscemi about its hero, too: Hennie plays a slimy corporate headhunter/secret art thief who meets his match, loses his grip and literally ends up in the toilet as a result. Le Havre (PG) (Aki Kaurismäki, 2011, Fin/Fra/Ger) André Wilms, Kati Outinen, Jean-Pierre Darroussin. 93 mins Applying his gentle, silent-comical approach to the tale of an illegal immigrant and his French protectors reaps rewards for Kaurismäki in a movie that's whimsical on the surface but built on firm foundations. This Must Be The Place (15) (Paolo Sorrentino, 2011, US) Sean Penn, Frances McDormand, Judd Hirsch. 118 mins Penn's bizarre portrayal of an alienated middle-aged rock star should be in a Tim Burton movie, but then this Americana-loving movie is bizarre all over, especially once Penn embarks on a Nazi-hunting road trip. Mirror Mirror (PG) (Tarsem Singh, 2012, US) Julia Roberts, Lily Collins, Armie Hammer. 106 mins A feast for the eyes but famine for the brain, this revisionist fairytale subverts conventions but loses the magic. Still, Roberts' evil queen is game. The Cold Light Of Day (12A) (Mabrouk El Mechri, 2012, US) Henry Cavill, Bruce Willis, Sigourney Weaver. 93 mins A European holiday turns into a high-stakes spy chase for Cavill, when he finds his family have been kidnapped, his dad's really a CIA operative and everyone's out to get him. Return (15) (Liza Johnson, 2011, US) Linda Cardellini, Michael Shannon, John Slattery. 98 mins Cardellini stands out in this drama as a soldier readjusting to civilian life. A Cat In Paris (PG) (Jean-Loup Felicioli, Alain Gagnol, 2010, Fra) 70 mins Distinctive, non-wacky children's animation in which a cat's double life lures a little girl into crime adventures. North Sea Texas (15) (Bavo Defurne, 2011, Bel) Jelle Florizoone, Eva van der Gucht, Mathias Vergels. 98 mins Atmospheric Belgian drama in which an adopted boy comes of age in a seaside town, developing feelings for his (male) neighbour. La Grande Illusion (U) (Jean Renoir, 1937, Fra) Jean Gabin, Dita Parlo, Erich Von Stroheim. 114 mins Reissue for Renoir's masterpiece, exploring divisions of class as well as nation in a first world war POW camp. Titanic 3D (12A) (James Cameron, 1997, US) Leonardo DiCaprio, Kate Winslet. 195 mins Cameron refloats his maritime disaster epic. Housefull 2 (12A) (Sajid Khan, 2012, Ind) Akshay Kumar, Asin, John Abraham. 145 mins Bollywood mistaken-identity farce mixing up four sets of fathers, daughters and sons-in-law. Out from Friday Battleship Liam Neeson, Rihanna and other sailors fend off a Transformers-style alien invasion. Out from Wed The Cabin In The Woods Mind-stretching comic meta-horror that revitalises all the old tricks. 666: The Prophecy Horror thriller about spooky goings on in Barcelona.
