Debut album from Popstars victors described by Julie Burchill as the most important group since The Sex Pistols

Comparisons are unfair. But when eldest son sounds so like father, Ziggy Marley rather invites it. Recorded in Hollywood with various Red Hot Chili Peppers, Dragonfly represents the total Americanisation of reggae. "I Get Out" borrows the riff from "Get Up Stand Up" and sounds like Matchbox Twenty messing around with a reggae rhythm during a soundcheck. "Looking" could be something Eagle-Eye Cherry might have recorded for a Bob Marley tribute. "Lost am I in my memories of my forefathers' legacy," Ziggy sings on "Shalom Salaam". Quite.

After the ponderous Al and the not-as-clever-as-it-thought-it-was Minority Report, Spielberg delivers a sleek, slick 1960s-set caper movie based on a true story, with Leonardo DiCaprio as the teen con artist attempting to stay one step ahead of Tom Hanks' FBI agent. Leo's smug, Hanks is nerdish, but Spielberg carries off the action with flair.

The Family Way sees squeaky-clean Hayley Mills as the perfect daughter to real-life dad John in this cautionary 1966 tale of a young married couple struggling with financial hardships and the apparently grim realities of married life. Accident, on the other hand, is a brooding psychodrama, written by Harold Pinter, directed by Joseph Losey and starring Dirk Bogarde as a tragic philosophy professor obsessed by Jacqueline Sassard's voluptuous student.

Totally rubbish teen comedy which sees a French girl (Coyote Ugly's Piper Perabo) invading Texas and fiendishly ruining the life of star cheerleader Jane McGregor. Not content with being bland and dull, its national stereotyping stops just short of "cheese-eating surrender monkeys" gags.
