Last night i watched "Sherlock Holmes". Amazing movie with great plot and actors play.

 

[Tin Pot]

Quantum of Solace

(Again)

Love it. Opening scenes are fab, I really must holiday in Italy in the summer some time.

Was checking whether it was suitable for my son to watch as he's growing up now, noticed a big number of edits as it's the ITV version and all the objectionable bits are edited out. The jumps are quite noticeable.

The Hypnotist.

Swedish movie. Bit Scandi-grey rather than Scandi-noir tbh. And Leno Olin acted the rest of the cast off the screen.

The first ones great, the 2nd left me very disappointed as it's just an action film and felt a bit thin on the 'sleuthing' side.

Inside Out.

Pixar stuff. Very funny about characters inside everyone's heads that control emotions. The Dad sketch was spot on.

Reminds me of the Beano's Numskulls

The Theory of Everything about Stephen Hawking.
Great film, good acting.

Gravity

You have my sympathies.

The Happening.

Moves Shymalan further down the list.

I think the only one of his I'll stand by is Unbreakable... since The Village I've tended to avoid his films.

The Village was OK up to the reveal. I quite enjoyed Unbreakable, but The Happening confirmed what the last part of The Village suggests.

There's nothing more disappointing than the big reveal being obvious from the start. The Village, Existenz and History of Violence all failed on this front.

Punisher;War Zone.Blood and guts film.It was a follow up.Crap really.

Saw the best film I've seen in a while last night. It was 'Whiplash', a movie about a drummer with an obsession about being the next Buddy Rich and is at a very prestigious music school in New York. They have a particularly odious teacher (JK Rowlands winning the Oscar) who demands the best from them and belittles and physically beats his pupils who are only too pleased to comply with his demands. A very, very good film which gets out of ten where six is the highest, 6/10.

Never saw it earlier but gave Troy, with Brad Pitt a go.
Meh...it was ok. It didnt have the character, it put me in mind of 1960s 1970s epics...fine in their day but dated now.
