1 month ago | theguardian.com | Geoffrey Bunting

Released in 2010 and bundled with the Xbox 360, the Kinect looked like the future – for a brief moment, at least.

★½ Call me radical, I just don't think Batman films should be so dark you can't see anything and a billion years long? Make Batman fight a bat again or that dude with a camera for a head. ★★★★ I have never seen someone have as much fun in a film as Michelle Yeoh has in this.
