BAFTA Awards 2012

The BAFTA awards are at the Royal Opera House, Covent Garden, London on Sunday 12th February 2012. Below is a list of nominees plus our own predictions for who we think will win (but not necessarily who we’d like to see win.) plus links to those films we’ve reviewed. How will we do with our predicting? We’ll let you know after the big night.
Just so you know, some of the films like Bridesmaids and Rise of the Planet of the Apes may not carry a review on this site, but that’s not to say we’ve not seen them.

Don’t forget to Tweet Us your thoughts @FilmFridays. The FilmFridays Oscar list will follow these awards.
