    Seen Robin Hood last night. I really enjoyed it apart from a couple of ridiculous things towards the end which were totally unneccesary. It probably should have been called Robin Hood Begins because I think its obvious they are trying to set it up to be a trilogy
    Its really not that complicated!!!

    Didn't think it was that bad. It was trying way too hard at times but there was still a few funny moments. I'd say it's a solid 3/5, entertaining enough but never going to make any film of the year lists.

    Edit just to say you really have to at least find Will Ferrell amusing, if you don't like him then stay well away.

    Shutter Island-8/10,De Caprio good as a cop an investigating goings on in a mental asylum.
    I kind of knew the plot too much before seeing it and other than that I would have scored it higher.

    Fans of the original Predator movie with Arnie should enjoy Predators. Its not as good but its a hell of alot better than Alien vs Predator

    I do find him amusing...but that was utter tripe...and to have a message about the whole financial melt down aswell...i just couldn't understand what it was trying to be...
    They should have just left it as a movie with The Rock and Samuel L. Jackson at least there characters gave me a laugh!(kinda)

    I don't know why - since it's generally gotten average to decent notices - but I hated it. Found it completely unthrilling, limp and quite sloppily directed. And Lawrence Fishburne was just redonkulously silly. Still the best Predator sequel yet, but it ain't saying much...

    Saw The Road recently, really enjoyed it although it's quite a brutal watch at times. And it doesn't capture the book's uplifting aspects too well so fairly bleak all round.

    "Pandorum",Dennis Quaid and a few others wake up after cyber sleep on a spaceship,they're not alone though,familiar type scenario but it's really well done,if you liked Alien type films you'll like this one-8.5/10

    I havent seen the film of the Road but the book is incredibly brutal and horrific at times, definately worth a read though

    Just watched The Other Guys (Monday) and Wall Street 2 (tonight).
    The Other guys, some very funny moments, Steve Coogan is as he always is, Marky Mark was good if nutty while Will Ferrell was odd and funny. Michael Keaton was funny too and eliminating two action stars to begin with was brilliant. I don't know how anyone can have watched it and not at least smile thinking of their final scene - it just resonated through the rest of the movie. Coogan's bribes to the police were funny, while Eva Mendes was just smoking - the dinner scene with Marky Mark was painful! 3.5/5

    Wall Street 2 - solid, but not a patch on the original, Shia is no Charlie Sheen and there was a big too much moralising in it, without a proper punchline. The ending wimped out and was a bit too fuzzy, would have liked something similiar to The Departed to round it off. But it dealt with some issues well, though if anyone has even scant knowledge of what happened with the crisis and has any depth of thought, it's a bit too glossy. Didn't like the way it was cut, or the music, they just didn't match up. 2.5/5

    "The Deaths Of Ian Stone": Guy gets repeatedly killed on consecutive days by creatures trying to get him to forget something.A bit like a horror version of Groundhog Day.I never heard of it before or any of the actors in it but I thought it was a really good film.8/10

    Brooklyn's Finest - Snipes, Omar and Wee-Bay. What more could you want? Enjoyable cop movie. Richard Gere and Don Cheadle are also in it.

    Rewatched Dirty Harry at the weekend and it still looks the business.

    Thought the Social Network was good but not quite as good as I thought it would be.
    Robbie Hedderman. Arguably the greatest Derry City player of all time...

    Chanced upon a TV screening of "The Pursuit of Happiness" starring Will Smith and his young fella.

    Pleasantly surprised.

    A good performance by Smith - I genuinely hoped the character would win some respite over all of that adversity.

    The on-screen bond between father and son was engaging and believeable (for obvious reasons!).

    Paranormal Activity - Good show, not as scary as I thought it would be, also felt it was very short.

    Anyone see the second one? Is it worth going to see?
