Another masked avenger is reincarnated as a big budget movie. Idle playboy Lamont Cranston (Alec Baldwin), schooled in Tibetan mysticism, fights crime in late '30s New York while wearing a natty hat and false beak. He finds time to romance telepathic sweetie Margo Lane (Penelope Miller), whose crusty old scientist Dad (Ian McKellen) has just invented an atom bomb which is in danger of falling into the hands of Shiwan Khan (John Lone), conquest-happy last descendent of Genghis Khan.Director Russell Mulcahy turns out the regulation death traps (a locked chamber filling with water, a bomb timer which ticks away during the climax) and the Shadow breezes through via nifty "invisible" effects. It evokes the conventions and charms of 1930s' pulp fiction in rather more nostalgic mode than Quentin Tarantino's Pulp Fiction, and adds little of its own attitude, although a sly camp sensibility (notably in the extremely chi-chi Tim Curry and John Lone as the villains) goes for snickering at the expense of tension. A pleasant, eye-pleasing movie but, after the super-heroic likes of Batman, The Crow and The Mask, the merely mysterious Shadow seems somewhat grandfatherly and remote. --Kim Newman

Winnie The Pooh's Most Grand Adventure
Award-winning novelist and screenwriter William Boyd brings Evelyn Waugh's classic trilogy of the Second World War vividly to life in this epic two-part drama starring Daniel Craig Megan Dodds Leslie Phillips Julian Rhind-Tutt Robert Pugh and Katrina Cartlidge. At the heart of the story is one man's heroic quest: Guy Crouchback (Daniel Craig) returns from his self-imposed exile in Italy in 1939 and joins the army to fight for a deep moral cause and reclaim his self-respect following a shattering divorce from society beauty Virginia Troy (Megan Dodds). But as his encounters with the absurd reality of life in the armed forces in his training at Southend-on-Sea and the Isle of Mugg and in his postings to Dakar Alexandria and Crete prove to be more of a challenge than facing the enemy itself. Virginia has also returned to London from America at the start of the war having parted with husband number three. As Britain's fortunes dwindle so do Virginia's until Guy appears to be her only hope. On his return to London she tracks him down. In strong contrast to the darkly comic nature of his military experience his renewed and passionate acquaintance with his dangerously beautiful ex-wife provokes a personal and moral crisis that tests - to the limits - both his love for Virginia and his profound sense of duty. Sword of Honour is both a war story and a love story - as well as a biting satire on the emergence of the world we live in today.
