we watched Dr Strange last weekend. I hate Benedict whatamunch. He was his usual self in this, but with a few fight scenes thrown in.
I almost liked it.
 
Samurai Cop

Contender for the best/worst movie ever award.

The lead actor thought that shooting was finished so had his shoulder length hair cut -but some scenes had to be re-shot and he wears a ladies wig much of the film. Also, many of the scenes were shot without sound and many of the subsequently dubbed lines are delivered by the Director (using electronic enhancement to disguise his voice) to save money.

Jaws II.

Not quite as good as the first, but still leagues ahead of the dross that followed. Roy Scheider still manages to ratchet up the paranoia to stress factor 9.

7/10.
What's the one with Michael Cane? Jaws 4 or 5 or just The Revenge?? A film so poorly scripted, conceived and delivered that it's almost as if the Naked Gun team made it. Laughable throughout, especially at the end.

You should read the novelisation. It's hilarious, and implies that the shark is being controlled by a witch doctor. Truly one of the funniest things I've ever read

Dead Man's Shoes.

Truly awful cliched mess of a film. Paddy Considine was about as convincing as as Noddy playing Brick Top, and the rest of the cast were people playing at thugs like they thought actors should play at thugs. The script was risible, and it looked like it was made for sixpence. The only good performance was Toby Kebble, who is a revelation, superb performance by him, I didn't realise that I've seen him in other things... a great film actor.

1/10 don't waste the 90 minutes.

Wonderful, wonderful review! I'll watch the film (it's on YouTube) and see if it lives up to your critique.

I watched Intolerable Cruelty last night. Not the best Coen venture and as it was on the box it was interrupted by lengthy ad breaks. Good set designs, though.

The full excruciating mind numbing dumbness of this masturbatory pile of tosh is on the tube of you to watch, I think it's there because no one with any sense would pay to watch it.

The Cincinatti Kid. Steve McQueen was never more Steve McQueeny, and Edward G Robinson was great. Well done movie, tho' in truth you kind of knew which way it was headed long before the end. "I guess you're just not ready for me yet." 7/10.

Life. The best part was when I found twenty quid on the way home. I went halves with my mate so at least we weren't out of pocket. The universe gave us our money back, basically, which is how bad this film is

Human. The most visually breathtaking film I have ever seen. And that's just for starters. The whole thing is available on YouTube, here, but if you get the chance to see it on a big HD tv, grab it. Just stunning.
