Buried
Buried. A truck driver buried alive in a coffin (in Iraq). 7.5/10. It's a high-concept film which manages to do justice to the concept (a rarity).
(May possibly appeal to people who enjoyed "127 Hours").

I thought it was absolute ****
I'll expand
Basically I was hoping for a really great horror film, not a film with a strong moral outlook. The whole stealing children to sell them on because the children didn't have a future was just claptrap IMO

The Gold Rush - My second Charlie Chaplin this week, this one was 87 years old and included some special effects! I was impressed with it, I liked the fact that whilst it was a silent film from 1925 it was narrated by Charlie himself (added for a 1942 re-release I have read). 4/5
Machine Gun Preacher 2011
9/10
An expceptionally good film, with a misleading title. It is not a b-movie cheap action film. This is a very good watch, that I expect most people have avoided due to title. Don't let the title or description put you off.

Caporegime
The Descendants. George Clooney is great in this, quite a noble everyman facing difficult decisions and coming out... fairly well, on the whole, just about. It's pretty murky at times, to be honest. It's tragic without being overdone.
Obviously, movies are subjective, but seriously, how can you give The Dictator 7/10?
Ali G and Borat were decent, but I failed to laugh even once, throughout The Dictator. And I actually can't remember not laughing in a comedy, before. This must rank as the most unfunniest comedy I have ever seen.
I'm watching Good Luck Chuck on the telly right now and I'm laughing at some of those scenes...but Dictator - that was terrible.

Lawless 8/10. I loved it, Guy Pearce in a great baddie performance and as mentioned earlier Tom Hardy is one of the most charismatic actors around.
agreed, fantastic film fab acting by all involved. brill plot and mesmerizing story telling. bit of a gore fest but its nice to see a decent adult movie for once

The Sweeney 8/10. Will never get bored of Ray Winstone's use of the word ' slaaaaaag'

Takers. 4/10
film is drivel, try so hard to be a slick heist movie but its just very poor, shot with a decent budget and that's about it's only saving grace, a 4 is generous and one to avoid if possible.
gone in 60 seconds 8/10
Gets 8/10 just for the shelby mustang

8/10 amusing comedy and light hearted, always cheers you up.

Safe (IMDB) - If you like Jason Statham then not bad - otherwise probably not for you

Sherlock Holmes 2
Good plot, cool fight scenes, guns, explosions, hot girls & decent actors. Fun film! They go overboard with the effects but some people will like it i suppose. Maybe a tad too long at 2hrs as well but as previously said, it's a good plot so they fill the film out pretty nicely, doesn't seem like 2hrs. -must be a good thing eh..
7/10
