The story is based on the novel by Neil Gaiman, with a screenplay written by Matthew Vaughn and Jonathan Ross’s wife, Jane Goldman.

3. Is this a real heartbreaker?

Fans of gross-out comedy supremos the Farrelly brothers are bound to be delighted at the release of their latest offering.

4. Only for the faint-hearted

Just weeks after the release of dire revenge thriller Death Sentence, starring Kevin Bacon, comes this latest vigilante justice flick, this time featuring a female lead in the guise of Jodie Foster.
