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.

I was that excited for gangs when it came out i was instantly disappointed

Left it for a few years and went back and enjoyed it, enough to watch it a few more times

Very good, except for Cameron Diaz

That was quality! What's your favourite then? Still not seen fear and loathing... But pulp fiction will take some beating

Spent a year learning how to track and hunt animals and build canoes for last of the mohicans

Spent time in jail researching for in the name of the father

Didnt bathe whilst filming The crucible 

Learned to be a boxer and actually had amateur fights for his role in The Boxer

Easy for a woman to act hysterical and dramatic though, it’s in their DNA

Beatles effort?

I quite liked it

I feel unclean. I agree with mickbrown. It’s no groundbreaker but quite entertaining and nowt to dislike about it

Borat. Unfunny shite. Never has been funny. Never will be. Utter fucking garbage

Don't know a lot about films but check out

Darren Aronofsky's early stuff... "Pi" then "Requiem for a Dream"

Prepare to be disturbed
