Nick Scott's School Portrait is a short comedy skit that starts hilarious, gets totally depressing, and then ends on a much sweeter note. Jonathan Rhodes is the cranky school photographer — performing his job without those hilariously awful backgrounds with fake tree stumps and star showers. God we miss those — who doesn't like smiling. At all. He gives each child a serious reality check (meanwhile, the little ones have no idea what the hell is going on), and then softens when an adorable redheaded girl melts him ever so slightly. Check out the short below (it's just over two minutes long), and let us know what you think. [via The Daily What]

Predators (15)
(Nimród Antal, 2010, Us) Adrien Brody, Alice Braga, Topher Grace, Laurence Fishburne, Danny Trejo. 107 mins.
Twenty-three years and three sequels after the original, the sub-Alien sci-fi movie at last gets a proper follow-up, and even if Brody barely has the bulk to fill one of Schwarzenegger's combat boots, this serves up the semi-guilty action pleasures you'd demand. Brody is one of a gang of random human badasses who wind up in a strange jungle and realise they're now training material for apprentice alien badasses. So who will survive to be the, er, worst ass?
The Twilight Saga: Eclipse (12A)
(David Slade, 2010, Us) Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson, Taylor Lautner. 124 mins.
Another teen-conquering exercise in sexless erotica, but at least there's an actual film around it this time. A new vampire threat and Bella's love triangle won't be enough to entice newcomers, but fans will enjoy the unconsummated fantasy thrills they crave.

This British attempt to do a Da Vinci Code-style conspiracy thriller is silly and suspense-free, says Peter Bradshaw
There's no earthly reason why British film-makers shouldn't turn out material in the supernatural thriller genre to rival Hollywood product. But this just isn't it: a silly, relentlessly unscary, and frankly awful film. Kelly Adams and Lucy Evans play students Sarah and Zoe; Zoe is having an affair with her lecturer, and impulsively takes Sarah on a visit to his flat. This, bizarrely, turns out to be the computer-hacking headquarters of a shadowy group led by a wheelchair-using motormouth Declan (Jonathan Rhodes), who is attempting to crack a Dan-Brownish cyberconspiracy involving the Vatican, the Pentagon and who knows what other sinister group, centring on the Bible Code. Ghosts pop up out of nowhere. People are always shouting things like: "Oh my God they're on to us!" while hammering away at their computer keyboards.
