Just watched No Strings Attached with Mrs Jack . Predictable as hell , though was still quite funny in places and very easy to watch . 7/10

Yeah all well and good but look how shithouse they look compared to Star Wars (1977). Call me biased but I reckon they hold up pretty well even by todays standards. <br />
<br />
Last Starfighter ( yes I watched it too ) was good fun to watch again once I got over my wife laughing at me. I have quite happy memories of watching it in the 80's with my Grandfather. -
[quote name='Razbra']Rango. Weird but brilliant. Not really a kids movies but my kids still enjoyed it. 9/10[/QUOTE]<br />
<br />
Hired it out for the kids two weeks ago on Blu-Ray and thoroughly enjoyed it. The shit they're doing with graphics these days is phenomenal - I've got a Samsung Series 8 LED (46") and the level of detail has blown my mind. -

How is it that you can manage to control the spending to the extent of a 46" LED yet can't get a say in the food prep? Just saying?<br />
<br />
Watching Ironclad at the moment (on and off). Gory as! -

You should have seen the extended grief I copped for it though! Even though I got it on sale for a song and it has improved the quality of life tenfold.<br />

It is always better to ask forgiveness than permission... but I think I got my last shot with that one <img src='http://www.daimenhutchison.com/invision/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' /> -

Extremely over the top Italian buddy cop thriller from the 70's. Taken to a parodic level.<br />
<br />

How could it be parodic if it predates the 'era' of the buddy cop movies - the 80s? Maybe it was the blueprint they were all striving for? -
Gullivers Travels - thought this was actually a decent watch, enjoyed it really.<br />
Rango - cool, certainly worth a watch.<br />
Source Code - bit confused about this one, seemed quite good through the most but a bit weak at the end - setting it up for more to come?<br />
Lincoln Lawyer - similar to Source Code, cool movie and quite enjoyed it but weak ending, made it almost seem like a pilot for a series. -

Did it have enough fart jokes?<br />

Fast Five; if you like James Bond kind of unbelievable action scenes, then this is your film, along with The Rock, the old cast returns, along with the usual cool cars, the inevitable car chase and driving action, along with plenty of other action, enjoyable watch, expect we'll see a Fast six sometime soon with The Rock in attendance.

Just bought a large amount of movies from a street stall in Thailand. The two I've watched so far...<br />
<br />
Scream 4 - Not as shit as I thought it'd be, hence not too bad if your expectations are low.<br />
<br />
Final destination five - I don't really know what I was expecting for a fifth movie in a series I haven't liked since the first movie. All in all it was complete shite. -
ROTPOTA - 7/10 Serkis was fabulous. Good story if you check parts of your brain at the door. CG works best on close-ups... still not completely convinced when the CG characters are in "live space," but Weta is getting there.<br />
<br />
Senna - 8.5/10 Compelling documentary about the deceased F1 champ and his rivalry with Alain Prost (who plays the villain/heel role) - must-see viewing for McLaren fans, and close to essential for everybody else (and that includes your wives who will swear they won't be interested, but in the end, they will be, and they will thank you).<br />
<br />
Colombiana - 6/10 Utterly ridiculous, and yet I fear, a future guilty pleasure repeat view.<br />
<br />
Edit: trailer here:<br />
<br />

-
Saw it at a preview screener at a local cine.
