The Searchers is absolutely brilliant. An important and thought provoking film, particularly regarding attitudes towards Native Americans.
What film did you watch last night?

Thanks but no thanks. I think I'll pass.
Your right of course. Quite sexist and racist, but they were a product of they're time and should be watched in that context.

Seen Point Blank years ago but I hardly remember it , I typically don't like remakes if I like the original , if the original is good then the remake never adds anything I find.

I watched Together (Tillsamens) by Lukas Moodysson. I recommend it. It has something to offend everyone.

Scream.
I can't remember what I thought of it at the time it came out, but I don't think the years have been kind to it. Lots of films have had the idea of a meta text to them since, and compared to its successors, Scream really bashes you over the head with it. A solid two or three stars on this watch, I think.

Jack Reacher.
I've seen a better film on coffee.
Rosamund Pike's role in Jack Reacher was maybe the worst role for women in the last few years. It's a complete nothing of a part where she stares with bovine stupidity as Cruise pauses in the doorway to utter a crushing revelation, about seven times in the film. It's awful. She's supposed to be a career woman with a high-powered job and the script calls for her to act like a bimbo. Appalling.
NO SPOILERS:
Cruise pauses in the doorway, dramatic music reaches a crescendo:
Cruise: "What you don't realise is....he was already dead!!!"
Pike reacts with a wide-eyed, open-mouthed look that resembles a lobotomy patient. Cruise walks out of the door as fast as his stubby little legs allow.
Dreadful film, shockingly bad script, great actress let down by a sexist and cliched role.

This vexes me. I'm terribly vexed.
Last nights viewing was Green Street 2. Oh dear.
I will guiltily admit to quite enjoying the original, it's a gritty and well paced effort with enough interest to raise it above the average 'Ave it' hooligan film. The sequel is bafflingly awful. Clearly shot for an American audience in an American prison, none of the original cast return and as a viewer you're subjected to little more than an hour or so of bare knuckle boxing. It's no wonder it went straight to DVD.
A generous 2/10, purely because some of the fight scenes were well filmed.
