Easy A - 7.5/10
really enjoyed this, despite not expecting to. Emma Stone and Thomas Haden Church were great in it, Lisa Kudrow annoyed me though

This made the girlfriend and I cry uncontrollably for a good while after the film. Great documentary - actually made me quite bitter and angry for a bit too, plus it stayed with my the whole weekend!
If you've not had the chance to before, best check out La Jetee. It's a Sixties film which Twelve Monkees is based on. It's quite different, definitely falls into the "ahead of its time" category and one of the most interesting pieces of film ever!
I watched Jeff, Who Lives at Home last night. A very solid 8/10. Great cast of Jason Segel, Ed Helms, Judy Greer and Susan Sarandon.
It's very funny in places, quite uncomfortable in others and filmed very well. A top notch indie-type film fronted by an excellent line-up and good script.

I watched it for the first time last night.
Seems like one of those films you need to shut of to fully enjoy, because I couldn't really get into it.
7/10 because the effects were great and the action was well done. But it will be easily forgotten for me
The Divide - Quite emotional and fascinating to see how the survivors interact with each other. A film about society and human nature. 7/10
God Bless America Really enjoyed this. Definitely worth a watch no matter what your taste in film. 9/10

Avengers - 7/10
Decent effects and action scenes but was let down by poor pacing.
Thought Mark Ruffalo and Robert Downey Jr were very good in their roles; Thor seemed underused though and I don't think Black Widow was suited to the film.

Got 1/2 way through it and the missus walks in and tells me she wants to watch it as she likes the Iron Man films (subtle way of saying she likes Downey Jr). I'd say it was heading for a 9-10/10!
Watched Thin Red Line - not a bad film but not as good as I remembered it. 6.5/10
Indiana Jones: Last Crusade: still a great film nearly 25 years on! How action/adventure films should be. 10/10
Se7en 10/10 Gwyneth Paltrow's best work
The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo (2011) 7/10
Watch the original Swedish version. It's better, much better.

Arthur - Had a few laughs but RB annoys the hell out of me!
) at the weekend, I'd only ever seen the first one.

Idiocracy. 6/10
Half Nelson. 6/10.
Not the sort of film I'd usually watch, but actually quite enjoyed it. Some quite uncomfortable scenes to watch (school dance...), but I thought the young girl was great and Gosling looked shattered and wasted for much of the movie (which is a credit to him).

Daybreakers. 5/10.
Decent concept and beginning, but it's very bland in places and has poor acting and a rubbish soundtrack. (Also lacks female eye-candy).
Still worth a watch for vampire fans - just don't expect too much.
