 Wish You Were Here (2012) Certificate R 89 min - Drama | Mystery Four friends lose themselves in a carefree South-East Asian holiday. Only three come back. Dave and Alice return home to their young family desperate for answers about Jeremy's mysterious disappearance. When Alice's sister Steph returns not long after, a nasty secret is revealed about the night her boyfriend went missing. But it is only the first of many. Who amongst them knows what happened on that fateful night when they were dancing under a full moon in Cambodia? Director: Kieran Darcy-Smith Stars: Joel Edgerton, Teresa Palmer, Felicity Price, Antony Starr Seems as though director Kieran Darcy-Smith has co-written a script that has frustrated some and captivated others with its secrets shared between its rather unlikeable characters. To us, it sounds similar to some of the best films that h

 Shadow Dancer (2012) Certificate R 101 min - Drama | Thriller Set in 1990s Belfast, an active member of the IRA becomes an informant for MI5 in order to protect her son's welfare. Director: James Marsh Stars: Clive Owen, Andrea Riseborough, Gillian Anderson, Aidan Gillen Fans of slow-burn storytelling should warm to the latest film from James Marsh, who is proving to be one of the most nimble directors around. Andrea Riseborough offers an admirably restrained performance while Clive Owen reminds us exactly how good he can be with the right material. &nb

 Augustine (2012) 102 min - Drama A look at the relationship between pioneering 19th century French neurologist Dr. Jean-Martin Charcot and his star teenage patient, a kitchen maid who is left partially paralyzed after a seizure. Director: Alice Winocour Stars: Vincent Lindon, Stéphan Wojtowicz, Soko, Chiara Mastroianni Given its subject matter, Alice Winocour's film earned comparisons to A Dangerous Method and Hysteria on the festival circuit. Hopefully it can stand on its own merits in what could be a breakout role for the young actress Soko, who plays the titular character.

 Generation Um... (2012) Certificate R 97 min - Drama Three adults during a single day in New York City, one filled with sex, drugs, and indecision. Director: Mark Mann Stars: Keanu Reeves, Bojana Novakovic, Adelaide Clemens, Daniel Sunjata I've read some rough reviews of this New York City-set indie (this one wins) that focuses on the ennui of a Keanu Reeves character, which could mean there's a high profile new offering for people who enjoy hate-watching film. &nb

Director: Daniel Algrant Stars: Penn Badgley, Imogen Poots, Norbert Leo Butz, Ben Rosenfield With "Gossip Girl" in his past, Penn Badgley, like Derek Zoolander before him, is pretty sure there's a lot more to life than being really, really, ridiculously good looking. And he plan on finding out what that is. We hear his closing performance as Jeff Buckley proves there's a career here if he can continue to find the right film projects. &n

 What Maisie Knew (2012) Certificate R 99 min - Drama In New York City, a young girl is caught in the middle of her parents' bitter custody battle. Directors: Scott McGehee | David Siegel Stars: Julianne Moore, Alexander Skarsgård, Steve Coogan, Joanna Vanderham Directing duo Scott McGehee and David Siegel have come to specialize in touchy family dynamics in films such as Bee Season and The Deep End, and their latest, an adaptation of Henry James's novel, pits Julianne Moore against Steve Coogan. Something tells me this might make a better play than movie ...

 Après mai (2012) 122 min - Drama In the months after the heady weeks of May '68, a group of young Europeans search for a way to continue the revolution believed to be just beginning. Director: Olivier Assayas Stars: Clément Métayer, André Marcon, Lola Créton, Felix Armand You can always count on director Olivier Assayas when it comes to a historical narrative; his Carlos mini-series was masterful, so we're kinda breathless - awaiting his look at the era of Charles de Gaulle and a politically shifting France.
