Are you feeling quite well? I think perhaps you should go & lie down for a bit...

Paddington. Everything about it is wonderful except the plot.

Why did the need to include a Cruella Deville-esque villan into the story? It just ruined what should have been a treat of a movie for me

Under the Skin - Even Scarlett Johansson nude couldn't save this one. Some nice photography of Scotland but that was about it.

Not last night but this afternoon. It was my birthday so Mrs N took me out for lunch and we went to the cinema

Ex Machina

Actually a really good exploration of the relationship between humans and Artificial Intelligence, Recommended

Shutter Island

5/10

When I first saw this in the cinema, I thought it was clever and a bit brilliant. On second viewing it's really not that good. There are some particularly shonky green-screen sections which are laughable. I think it suffers from the same problem as Sixth Sense - once you understand the twist, it's a fairly mundane affair.

Edge of Tomorrow.I loved this movie as i wasnt expecting it to be much good after Cruise`s awful Oblivion.A mix of Source Code,Groundhog Day and Quantum Leap with a dash of Starship Troopers. 8/10 for me.

The Double, the 2011 film with Richard Gere. Reasonable thriller effort. Richard Gere is pretty good when you get him away from schmaltzy nonsense, seen a couple of his films recently and thought he was OK.

U-571. Ignoring the 'Americans re write history' element it wasn't a bad wartime adventure yarn. A good performance from Harvey Keitel, who was playing a rare role in which he wasn't a crooked cop or gangster.

Storage 24
Ok low budget British horror that suffers slightly from showing too much of the monster, I think. Some nice moments, particularly Noel Clarke's weapons find in one of the units.

Elizabeth
Probably the best film I'll ever see that features both Eric Cantona and Cate Blanchett.

You've done well if you can ignore that. Is there not a bit with Bon Jovi running about leaping from sub to sub holding an enigma machine? Farcical.

Shaun the Sheep

It's not just for kids, and there's an excellent parody of Silence of The Lambs in it.

So far today I have watched...

Siberian Education which was actually quite good. 8/10. It's not a thriller, so don't go expecting lots of high voltage action, but in a strange way it's quite moving. I'm not bothered if it is true or not, I just enjoyed it.

Flyboys which want too bad either 7/10. Based on the Lafayette Escadrille, American volunteers during WWI who volunteered for the French military to become fighter pilots before the USA joined the was.

Moonrise Kingdom - I'd never heard of it but it turned out to be a delight. Always assuming you like Wes Anderson. Probably the most Wes Anderson Wes Anderson film I've ever seen.A movie for which the word 'quirky' was invented.

My 3rd film for today 13 Assassins. 8/10. A group of samurai come together to kill an evil lord in a suicide mission. Enjoyed it despite some of the subtitles being too fast for me to read at the beginning.
