DVDs of the week

By Robbie Collin, 30/06/2009

AMERICAN TEEN (15) HILARIOUS and touching documentary that constructs an honest- to-goodness teen movie out of the real-life trials of a bunch of jocks, geeks and indie kids at a US comp.

GRAN TORINO (15): CLINT Eastwood directs and stars in this great drama about a racist widower living next door to a family of immigrants. Funny yet heartbreaking.

CONFESSIONS OF A SHOPAHOLIC (12): BRUNO is hot comedy property at the moment, but his talented missus Isla Fisher's latest film falls disappointingly flat. Isla's portrayal of retail-mad Becky Bloomwood is all right, but she's worth a lot better than this.
