Book of Eli - Denzel Washington - took two attempts to watch it all the way through - a bit of a duff Mad Max type film. Watchable. 4/10

 

Green Zone - Matt Damon - enjoyed it, always like films based out in Middle East, etc. 7/10

 

Planet 51 - was enjoying it til I nodded off, kids liked it - must be good. 6/10

 

Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs - see above - 6/10

 

Good Will Hunting - Matt Damon/Robin Williams - look, there was fook all else on this Saturday just gone, never seen it before - quite enjoyed - the scene were Robin Williams was going on about his late wife farting in bed had me in tears - half decent. Oh, and Minnie Driver looked far better than I can ever remember. 7/10

 

The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo - its Swedish so no famous actors/actresses - great thriller - didn't bother me that it was in subtitles great revenge scene on the pervy Probation Officer- looking forward to the 2nd in the trilogy in the next week or so - well worth the watch and highly recommended. 9/10

 

That's me, Jonathan Woss, over and out.

Just watched Taken

 

Really enjoyed it

 

Is Fury any good?

Yes. Very good.

'Birdman' the big winner at the Oscars last night: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-31580656

'Whiplash'. Seriously good film. One of the best i've seen in the last couple of years. I can see why the bloke who played the music teacher won an Oscar, although he did have all the best lines.

 

Spoiler alert. The sweariest put downs since Malcolm Tucker:

The Wedding Ringer. Pretty funny in parts and features Penny from The Big Bang Theory. 7/10 and RIP Orange Wednesday's.

When you change from Orange to EE, you get 2for1 on Wednesday's through the EE film app.

Interstellar.

 

9/10.

 

Thought provoking albiet a tad slow for the the first hours. Cannot get  why people cannot understand it?

Will also be awarding Whiplash 8.5/10. Cracking film.

 

Halfway through the Spandau Ballet film - quite enjoying that as well.

Interstellar.

 

9/10.

Must admit, I watched it with some trepidation after the slatings it's got, but it was actually alright.

 

Whiplash also decent. That teacher is one mean fucker.

 

CitizenFour is also a good watch, although I expected Snowden to put tin foil on his head at one point.

Looking forward to Whiplash!

 

Just watched Dracula Untold. OK but perhaps I was in the mood for somat simple and easy going. 6/10.

 

Bart the Bowman from the Hobbit does a fine bit of impaling!

 

In fact I think impaling is now my second favourite medieval pastime after the stocks!

It's shit film night on terrestrial telly...

 

Revolver (Jason Statham, Ray Liotta, some bloke out of Coronation Street) - so shite I turned it over, I suppose this is why Guy Ritchie doesn't make films anymore? (or if he does, nobody bothers with them).

 

Turned it over to..

 

Burke and Hare (Andy Serkis, 'Spaced' cast, Ronnie Corbett) - which is just as shit as Revolver, I've also come to the conclusion that, in my opinion, Andy Serkis is a crap actor, thought he was crap as Martin Hannett in '24hr Party People', he was crap as Ian Dury in his biopic and he's crap in this

It's shit film night on terrestrial telly...

 

'Untouchable' was on BBC4. Great film.

Subtitles though, since I've started doing the annoying habit of 'dual-screening' it's pretty hard to keep up with subtitled stuff, missed out on a few good 'Storyville'(s) doing this, you just can't keep up with two screens reading one and watching the other (and subtitles).

 

The logical thing to do would be turn off the laptop during subtitled stuff, I'll probably do that in future.

Watched '71 last night.

 

Soldier gets separated from his squad in Belfast. Low budget UK film. Decent, 7/10.

anybody watched frank

 

a frank sidebottom thing?

anybody watched frank

 

a frank sidebottom thing?

 

yes and no

 

yes - it's about a musician who wears a paper mache head called frank

 

no - it's nothing like the real frank sidebottom and is not set in timperley

Edge of Tomorrow - Very silly at the end, but decent. Funny too.

 

Kind of a Action/Sci-fi/Groundhog Day type a thing.

I was very disappointed

 

Thought it was white

last year i read a book about countries trying to qualify for the brazil wc

 

there were some interesting features not least american samoa who had a man/woman playing for them

 

sky on demand has next goal wins which is about the worst team in the world

 

a good watch

50 Shades of Grey. 2/10. If she'd had bigger tits it may have scraped a 3.

Next Goal Wins.

 

Brilliant, brilliant stuff

Watched that new Russell Crowe film t'other night. 6.5/10. Feel good film.

I really enjoyed Interstellar.  Watching 'Boyhood' later.

Nightcrawler-really liked it, it's a bit fucked though.Ha

 

Wild-thought it was decent.10 too many flashback scenes for my liking. I like looking at Reese Witherspoon
