    C'mon Sean's spanish accent was dead on! Just like his irish(Untouchables) and his American(The Last Crusade). Just an outstandingly gifted imitator.

    It was probably the hair piece that confused you...

    Just saw the Kings Speech last night. I was blown away by Colin Firth, an actor I like but didn't think he had that sort of performance in him. The film is very good, and could be a good play too. Seemed to just wiz by, pretty funny too - and desperately uncomfortable at times too.<br />
    <br />
    If he doesn't win the best Oscar I'll be amazed. Actually made the hair on the back of my neck stand up in end, great stuff. And Guy Pierce was [I]fabulous[/I] as Mr Wallis Simpson.

    Total Recall was on Showtime Action last night. Fuck-king awesome. Arnie is without a doubt the worlds greatest action hero, ever.

    Saw Avatar for the first time the other day. Yes the SFXs were amazing, brilliant in fact, but christ what a load of hippy cråp. Unobtainium? And whats the deal with plugging their hair into their pet pteradactyls? Sam Worthington is also a shit actor.<br />
    <br />
    Piranha 3D: Sublime horror flick. Perfect combo of blood, gore, humour and T&A. Must be really good in 3D at the flicks. That cock scene would never have been allowed even 5 years ago.<br />
    <br />
    Good Luck Chuck: Fark what a load of elephant shit. The gimp who plays Chuck is cråp beyond belief. God knows why Jessica Alba chose to be in the film but having said that I can't exactly think of a single good film she's actually been in.

    Watched [I]Street Smart[/I] (1987) last night. Morgan Freeman gives a convincing performance as a nasty, manipulative pimp. Average movie though. 6/10.

    Saw True Grit last night . Thought it would have been a lot better if i hadn't seen and loved the origional so much . I thought none of the actors did as well as their counterparts in the origional .

    Took mini-mariner to "Gnomeo & Juliet" yesterday. Its a pretty funny little kids movie with plenty of little adult laughs in it too. Plenty of famous voices giving it some star power. If you are in need of timeout with the kids, you could do a lot lot worse than sliding along to this one with them.

    [I]The Mechanic[/I] (2011). Pretty good disposable action flick. Entertaining and well paced. Statham brings the ownage.

    Watched Black Swan a week ago - Anything with Natalie Portman doing naughty lesbian things to Natalie Portman is worth a Nobel fucking Peace Prize.<br />
    And if anyone here disagrees I will come to your house and punch you in the throat.<br />
    <br />
    10/10

    watched The Kings Speech. <br />
    <br />
    Thought it was fine, maybe 7/10, although Firth was superb in his role, as was his speech therapist/coach...? <br />
    <br />
    and Sneak, that is funny!!

    The Collector - pile of shit, do not even entertain the thought of watching. I would be very happy if all the deaths in the movie were real.

    Get Low is an interesting yarn well worth a watch. Old hermit has his funeral arranged for him while still alive, wont ruin the plot from there for you.<br />
    Lovebirds, the new Rhys Darby romcom is reasonable with plenty of laughs and makes Auckland look far more appealing than it really is.
