The Net (1995)

A computer programmer stumbles upon a conspiracy, putting her life and the lives of those around her in great danger.

Mediocre, silly and predictable thriller with no clue about what the internet is; Sandra Bullock alone carries the show.

Halliwell (no star): "A dully paranoid thriller that is a bad imitation of Hitchcock. Its plot is full of implausibilities and it is also computer illiterate, which doesn't help, though Sandra Bullock's performance does, even if it is not enough to save the film."

Maltin**1/2: "The techno-thriller as plodding Sandra Bullock vehicle...Anyone who's ever seen a real thriller will be ahead of this story at every turn."

The Man Who Knew Infinity (2015)

The story of the life and academic career of the pioneer Indian mathematician, Srinivasa Ramanujan, and his friendship with his mentor, Professor G.H. Hardy.

Good period drama about a fascinating (and important) mathematical genius is convincing in its depiction of the academic rivalries with rheir racism, chauvinism and professional hybris.

Eye in the Sky (2015)

A military officer in command of an operation to capture terrorists in Kenya, sees her mission escalate when a girl enters the kill zone triggering an international dispute over the implications of modern warfare.

Good political thriller exposes the moral ambiguity - and hypocrisy and dubious machinations behind targeted drone killings; top cast enhances the credibility of the story.
