Jamie Bell
Billy Elliot (2000)
Flags of Our Fathers (2006)
Broyles and Haggis redundantly hammer home the same point in scene after scene...while fail[ing] in 132 minutes fully to breathe life into their triad of reluctant heroes.
Jumper (2008)

Jumper
too often feels like a special-effects demo reel in search of a story, at least the eye candy is pretty darn sweet.
Defiance (2008)
Skilled hiding isn’t very exciting, so for the sake of the audience, Zwick carefully incorporates some hyped-up action standoffs, the last being an unfortunately laughable stretch of credibility.
Jane Eyre (2011)
The slow-boiling romance convinces thanks to Wasikowska and Fassbender's unwavering seriousness and commitment to selling the story.
Snowpiercer (2014)
A movie-movie, with edgy cred and a vivid dystopian vision that, while ostensibly futuristic, speaks harshly to the class divide already defining us.
