Dead Silence - Turned if off halfway through because it was so gooseberry fool/10
Boring as strawberry float. I turned it off. It takes a special kind of gooseberry fool film to make me quit.

Yes. I too turned off Dead Silence. And I sit through some really poor horror films.

Black Rock - painfully mediocre film. 4/10. Additional point given for scenes of unnecessary full-frontal female nudity.

Spoiler (plot, not nudity):

Back to the Future - 10/10

Went to the Secret Cinema event, and it was incredible. The film was amazing enough, but the sheer effort that went into the larger production was fantastic. My face genuinely ached the next day from grinning so much. I also forgot how efficient a movie BttF is; nary a wasted line of dialogue. It moves along so fast that it goes in a blur.

Stalker

A work of Art/10

Rocky 3 - 7/10

I don't hate Balboa, but I pity the foo'

Rocky 4 - 9/10

Cheesy and awesome. The training montages

Non-Stop - 5/10

Decent enough but also nothing great.

Am I the only person who liked Dead Silence? Freaked the gooseberry fool out of me when I first watched it... Though I was off my tits on Benzo Fury at the time


Anyway latest film Inbetweeners 2 8/10 probably funnier than the first film

What was the event like? I've heard some great things, but don't really know what happens there.

Anyway, as a result of this post, I watched it on Netflix last night; it's a great film, but I regret not watching it when I was a kid as that would have been incredible (watched it for the first time a couple o years ago). I really enjoyed it though, and ended up watching the sequel when I got back this evening. It's also really good, and has got me excited for the technological advances were going to see over the next twelve months.

I've never seen part three, so I might get around to that this evening.

Lucy 2/10 One of the dumbest films I've seen. Villains and extra characters were incredibly pointless to Lucy's percentage adventure, which was a total bore of bad cgi and inconsistent tone.

Frustratingly, it could have been great. First half has a lovely line in understated tension, really cranks the paranoia angle, takes pleasure in wrong-footing you constantly. Then the second half just pisses it all away with dreadful dialogue (more blatantly so than in the first half), boiler plate action, a crap baddie reveal, and a boring resolution.

In some fashion, Non Stop has to be congratulated: I had absolutely no expectations when I sat down to watch it, yet it did its best to offer me something so I could still feel robbed by the time the credits ran.

Edge of Tomorrow

Really very good sci-fi action groundhog day.

9

Rocky 5 - 6/10

Kinda flawed but not as bad as people say. It had some good moments. Talia Shire looked really old in this. Street fight at the end was hilarious.

Rocky Balboa - 7/10

Thought this was a fitting tribute. The rival was crap though, easily the worst out of all of them.

2 > 1 > 4 > 3 > Balboa > 5

The Raid 2 - holyfuckingshit/10

I thought the first one was great but this just blows it out of the water, some of the fight scenes had me wincing at the more brutal bits Dual claw hammers to the face

That music in the end credits is brilliant, anyone know what it is?

Magic Magic - 4/10. Pretty uneventful and dragged on to an unsatisfying end.

Infection

Sadly I got lost in the plot towards the end (googling tells me I'm not the only one) but I certainly enjoyed the first 3 quarters at least. Very tense, and an incredibly creepy setting.

Sin City 2

7.5/10 - .5 below #1

I cant be the only one who thinks that Eva Green isnt a particularly good actress. I think she gets a lot of roles because she is the only 'a list' willing to have her flaps out for pretty much the duration.

Think like a man too. strawberry float off/10

Hercules : surprised that the rock was pretty decent in this 7/10
