Thought Logan-Marshall Green was badly cast for professor

Given all its faults, I found this one of the hardest to overlook. He just didn't suit the character at all.

The Grey

Very good watch solid 8/10 for me

Yeh it's just a bad b movie with a budget, the actors who took part in it should be ashamed.

The Cove - documentary about the dolphin (slaughter) trade in Japan. Disturbing, shocking, brutal but quite exciting at times.

I'd read about the IWC beforehand (with regards to Japanese and Faroe Isles practices) but I had no idea it fostered such attitudes!? I genuinely don't see the point in it.

On the upside, I cried a lot less than when watching Dear Zachary!

The Sixth Sense - Still brilliant, even after multiple watchings. 5/5

Rise of The Planet of the Apes
Impressively average I thought, and the section from the street rampage through to the end of the bridge scene was quite poor. 5/10

A bridge too far - 9/10 Old films rock

Barricade (2012) - 5/10

Horror film that has quite a good build up but the ending is abysmal. Can't really recommend it.

im not sure drive is worth the blu-ray. dvd, sure. there isnt anything i can recall that warrants the HD really, unlike some movies.

Thanks for the insight. I'll have look at the blu ray review.

He just seemed too much of a Hollywood-handsome hero. I would have liked to have seen James Franco's or Cillian Murphy's take on the role.

Fright night, modern one.

decent enough film for a laugh and a good way to kill a couple of hours 6.5/10

I saw it on Blu Ray and thought it looked amazing, but I'm not sure it would have looked much worse on DVD. I don't know if it's the kind of film to really benefit from Blu Ray.

The Raid

4/10
I was really looking forward to this and the auction was good, but I just couldn't get into it or connect. It was more like just a tv show on in the background, just couldn't settle down and be engrossed by it.

RIZZEE · 27 Sep 2012 at 19:55

Memento - 9/10

Loved it so much.

xBLiNG · 27 Sep 2012 at 21:04

I Love You, Man - 7/10

Philadelphia - 8/10

Decided to get it on Blu Ray. If the living room has a 55" Bravia with a DTS-HD amp, might as well.

the blind side - 8.8/10

Zodiac - Crime thriller about a series of murders that were unsolved. I really enjoyed it, its pretty long at 2hrs 40mins but i didnt mind, the film is sort of split into two by following different characters, its a very neat idea. Would really recommend this to anyone...

8/10

We watched that a while back and really enjoyed it. Sandra Bullock was surprisingly good.
