One of the most highly anticipated films of the year has arrived in the form of Cloverfield; no mean feat when you consider a certain whip-cracking archaeologist returns this summer.

Video game adaptations have not gone down very well with most people (anyone actually remember Super Mario Bros?).

In 1994 John Travolta resurrected his acting career, playing mob hit man Vincent Vega in Quentin Tarantino's Pulp Fiction.
