    Kidulthood - woke up and it was on tv, so I watched it and found it fairly good, it did suffer from having to many crappy child actors in it.

    Pandorum! Was good and interesting, kinda weird when you couldn't get the while film to work like the last 45 minutes.

    Drage Me To Hell- I liked it, there was a few jumpy bits that caught me out as well

    House Bunny- I liked this as well Anna Faris looked sexy as fuck!

    House Bunny was ok, got a pass mark just for how fuckin hot Faris looked, what an arse she has Very Happy

    The last 20 mins of Drag Me to Hell were a bit daft, decent film though

    I enjoyed House Bunny.

    Adulthood, very dull, not a patch on Kidulthood.

    Caught The Fourth Kind the other day. Really enjoyed it. Prompted much googling & wikipediaing when I got home. Very clever film. They kinda say "ok we lied to you about a,b & c, that was fiction", but hope you overlook they lied about d,e & f. IT comes across as an almost Blair Witch style "did that really happen?". Wasn't as many scary bits as I'd hoped, but still very good.

    OFf to see 2012 tonight. Think it's going to be one extreme or the other tbh.

    2012 More than a little cliche'd at times, which you'd expect. Effects are a little ott on occasion too (even given the end of the world scenario). Phony Russian accents are attrocious. Not all bad though, some very gripping scenes. Not as good as Independence Day, but better than The Day After Tomorrow.

    Memories of Murder

    Incredible film. I was left speechless when the credits rolled. Completely engrossing and compelling story, combined with a strange sense of humour, and amazing performances all around. The best detective/serial killer film I have seen in years. Up there with Se7en as one of the best ever for me.

    Before The Devil Knows You're Dead
    Brilliant. Philip Seymour Hoffman and Ethan Hawke are great in this.

    2012
    Started off okay, but about midway though I was utterly bored and couldn't care less anymore. And why did the President's speech to the nation get cut off Mad. I wanted another Bill Pullman moment.

    Speed 2: Cruise Control

    What, I needed a laugh, OK?

    I've never been sure what is more laughable about this...

    - the swathe of inaccuracies or illogial moments(ballast rooms, sudden random forward momentum, thrusters used at high speed, incorrect alarm signals, chainsaws in equipment lockers, fire safety doors which won't open, holding onto a gun for dear life whilst being submerged in water leaving only one hand free to hold onto the girl and grab anything you need to on the way...)

    - the stupidity (they say the anchor won't stop them but 1. it WILL slow them down, which would help and 2.they admit themselves they only red one when the had more...when all tried at once would spread the strain and might make a difference)

    - the absurd logic of the tanker crew (a ship grinding down the side of your ship and causing damage you don't abandon ship for...you wait for the biplane that impales itself on the mast 10 minutes later)

    - the "comedy" (aka racist) portrayal of black caribbean people

    - or the fact that the ship continues onto land for ages, and I mean AGES, in a series of comedy sketches (in an action film, don't forget) built into a sequence you could almost forgive if it was the film's big finale, but which actually comes 10 minutes or so before the end so whatever possibility of that catching the eye and helping you forget this dross is lost by the dragging out of the rest of the film.

    Avatar - Amazing stuff. I don't know if it should be considered Cameron's best work, but it's probably the best film I've seen this year, alongside Inglorious Basterds. Go see this.

    Yeah I thought it was great too, but not without its problems. The last hour was just movie bliss.

    Up Suspect Very strange...

    2012 Lots of running and things blowing up behind. I've seen it all before although the whole, who would be saved if the world was to end question was quite interesting.

    Inglourious Basterds - "You know something, Utivich? This may be my masterpiece." Finally got the DVD this weekend, and this movie translated better to DVD than it did watching in theaters. Maybe not Tarantino's masterpiece, but a damn fine piece of cinema, yet again from Quentin. Turning a WWII story into a spaghetti-western style worked really well with this. Christoph Waltz might be Oscar bound for his performance as well. *****.

    2012

    My friends and I needed to see a few more shitty movies so we could complete our "Worst of 2009" list, and this was the obvious choice. Not as bad as I was expecting, but still pretty awful. Terrible, terrible script. A few moments that could've done without. Even some of the special effects were mediocre at best. Oh, how I loathe Roland Emmerich. And Michael Bay.

    I probably shouldn't judge it since I haven't seen it, but I'm glad that movie hasn't sucked the money from my pockets yet. Looks soooo bad.

    Up in the Air - Really good, Jason Reitman continues to impress. Great performances from just about everyone, including Danny McBride, who, surprisingly, was not being a complete jackass. Glad to see Reitman is not slowing down after his first two superb films. ****1/2
