Film: Ghosts of the Abyss

"Iceberg! Iceberg straight ahead!" People rushed to the deck, their only thought to get into a lifeboat.

"Women and children first!" the crew were shouting.

Passengers screamed as the great ship split in half, taking almost all aboard to a watery grave. But still the band played on.

You're sitting in your seat staring at the IMAX screen. All you can see are the murky depths of the Atlantic Ocean, when suddenly out of the darkness the Titanic comes toward you.

Ghosts of the Abyss, now showing at Bradford's IMAX cinema, recreates these scenes.

Following 'Titanic' movie director James Cameron on his visit to the real-life wreck, it is a very good film.

It is a 3D documentary, which means the pictures look like they're just in front of you, the screen about five metres away.

When the term 'it's better on the big-screen' is used, I think it means the massive IMAX screen -- I cannot imagine this film on a normal cinema screen.

Ghosts of the Abyss still has bad points. When one of Cameron's camera robots stops working he tries to make it sound like the end of the world, but it's only a robot. Who cares?

The rest of the film was brilliant. I would give it nine out of 10.

If you're interested in the Titanic, then I strongly advise you to watch this film at Bradford's National Museum of Photography, Film and Television.

Video: Red Dragon

You've already visited Hannibal Lecter for lunch and dinner -- now he's inviting you for breakfast.

And it's a feast of nail-biting chills as Anthony Hopkins finally appears in the first story from Thomas Harris's trilogy.

Red Dragon has already been filmed as the superlative Manhunter, but this new version is a better-than-average killer-thriller.

The focus is less on Hannibal and more on Will Graham, the FBI profiler who was almost killed while catching him. Graham is drawn out of retirement to apply his unique skill -- getting into the minds of murderers -- to track down family-killer The Tooth Fairy.

Graham enlists Hannibal's help as the expected date for the Fairy's next murder approaches. Red Dragon -- out now to rent - has plenty of atmosphere, coupled with a tight, intelligent and twist-packed plot.
