Lord of the Rings, two towers, first time watching this series, after managing to get the entire blu ray box set for £9 delivered from the rainforest, 8/10.
What film did you watch last night?

I find that quite tempting actually but is it not a bit strange, just watching soemthing to an instrumental music background?

It's a wonderful life. James Stewart / Frank Capra genius. 10/10 Xmas film perfection.

Life of Pi (2D) - 8/10
A very good watch. I would have preferred to see it in 3D, and from the way it was shot it looks like it would have been spectacular. It might have scored slightly higher, but it was a bit too spiritual for my tastes, and the Canadian actor sucked.

The Hobbit (2D). 4/10. I spent an hour of this snore-fest playing on my phone. Everything is over-hyped, overdone, Bilbo needs to die a horrific death, predictable, boring, singing!? plus other negative aspects. I quite liked the beginning, CGI and Gollum.

Star Trek 2009:
Second full time watching it on blu ray. I thought the whole JJ Abrams lens flare love was exaggerated but now that I was looking for it, kind Lols worthy. Good film 8/10
The amazing Spider-Man:
Dreadful 4/10

If you were sitting in the middle of a cinema auditorium farting about on your phone for an hour during the movie, then... well... **** you, sir.
If you were just watching a cam job at home or something, then fine.
Took my mum and sister to see the Hobbit on christmas eve (like to do something different as a family sometimes).
9/10
Great film, missed a few bits out of the first half of the book (theres a couple of random places they missed), the opening hour was a little too long but was fun, rest was outstanding.
Saw it in 2D, loved the really vibrant style from the way it was filmed, can see why there would have been a fuss with more frames and so on in the 3D version but it seemed like it would have suited it.
Either way I really cannot wait for the second half, can see why it get so many hit and miss reviews though (its all down to what you were expecting more than anything else, I really was bored of LOTR as it was way way too serious, when the Hobbit will bore/annoy people because it isn't).

Prometheus
7/10 - wouldn't be fair comparing it to Alien, so just rated it on it's own as a separate movie. Quite liked it but some parts of the story seemed to trail off or became inconsistent. Like the main guy, he just got burnt to death and that was him done. He could have gone on a rampage or something like "The Thing". Also, she has a cesarean and then she's ok, yet the guy got a drop of the black stuff in him and he was wrecked within hours?
Could have been better but still quite gripping non the less.

The Long Kiss Goodnight
Shane Black's dark, brilliantly witty writing on show again. Brilliant holiday film for adults who like Die Hard and any other adult humoured action film.
9/10
Rare Exports
Enjoyable and weird film, funny twist on the usual Santa flick.
Bits that annoyed me (Spoilers)
6/10
Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy
As dry as Unbuttered toast, but my word was it brilliant in every way. Won't be everyone's cup of tea due to the pacing, but just sheer quality across the board.

didnt get to see the real Santa, which sucked and really let it down at the end. Also that they basically become Human Traffikers is completely bizarre...

Pretty woeful, Casting was good, execution was pretty dire. I'd heard bad things going in so hardly a surprise, but still disappointing.

I want to see both of those, been meaning to for ages.
Watched lord of the rings last night on c4. Still epic.

+1. So many ignorant little tools in the cinema these days. If you can't keep your phone in your pocket for the duration, stay at home.

Just a heads up, the original girl with the dragon tattoo is on C4 @ 22:30
