Movies starring Kelly Macdonald

Trainspotting (1996)

94 mins     Crime, Drama      

When "Trainspotting" came out there was a bit of an outcry as people complained that this movie glorified drugs, I will admit the first time I watched I thought the same. It is actually easy to understand why I and others tho...

Gosford Park (2001)

137 mins     Drama, Mystery      

As a rule I try to avoid these types of movies as I am not a fan of this sort of period drama where you have the well to do sitting around talking posh and acting pretentious. But then "Gosford Park" not only features a ridic...

Intermission (2003)

105 mins     Comedy, Crime      

"Intermission" was released in the same year as "Love Actually" and it shares some similarities to the romantic comedy favourite because not only do we have a multi-character, multi-story set up which interweave we also have ...

Nanny McPhee (2005)

Choke (2008)

92 mins     Comedy, Drama      

"Choke" is one of those movies which left me unsure how I felt about it, almost confused by what I had just watched. But the confusion doesn't come from the story, infact whilst "Choke" has a story which is all over the place...

In the Electric Mist (2009)

117 mins     Crime, Drama, Mystery      

Yet again I find myself looking at the screen trying to tell you what I think of a movie and being conflicted by how I feel. On one hand "In the Electric Mist" is a great production, it moves at its own pace, features lots of...
