7/10.

I was really gripped cause I love thiks kind of thing. But the ending just seemed a bit dumb/horrible.I was hoping the Jew boy would escape with him .

I thought the film ending is actually good but not quite as good as the book's. They are both similiar, but the family didn't find the clothes until months later...

The game controllers want the characters to fit the horror genre rule to successfully pull off what they wanted.

Yeah I got that, but it's pretty hard to parody a genre which pretty much parodies itself. I'd have preferred a story revolving around what was happening in Japan. :lol:

The Last Stand - Arnie/10

It was good to see him back in the action and I enjoyed it thoroughly. 8-)

Surrogates - 6/10

Interesting enough concept but didn't really do much with it.

The Day Today. Only ran 6 episodes. But it's about as near to perfect as satire gets. At times flippant, surrealist and dark. It had me intears at least once an episode.

Highlights include the infestation of horses in the London Underground, the giant hand rising from the South Pole, and the fist fight between John Major and the Queen. And that whole John Fashanu bit.

10/10

Storage 24 - 3/10
There's nothing particularly wrong with it, it's just really strawberry floating boring with characters that are completely uninteresting to the point you honestly don't care if they get killed or not.
Also, films need to strawberry float right off with these endings where they show something huge is happening but that we'll never actually see since there wont be a sequel. Just tell your story without trying to force a stupid cliff-hanger at the end if your sequel isn't confirmed already.

Some Like It Hot (1959) - 8.5/10

Looper - 7/10

Starts off decent enough and explains the basics of the plot quite well but starts to lose momentum after the first 45 minutes or so and doesn't really pick up until the last 20 minutes.

probably needs a second viewing.

Undefeated - 9/10

Documentary about a High School American Football team, known for being awful but on the up. Really good, the kids they focus on are great and the coach is interesting to listen to. Ended up getting really involved with their season. Some football knowledge is needed, but not much more than knowing how many points a touchdown scores.

Made me want to go watch Friday Night Lights.

The Amazing Spiderman. 5.5/10 spent a lot of time being bored.
Man of Steel 6/10. As above felt bored at times. The fight seems were lacking any suspense. Enjoyed the flashbacks, would have like more.
John Carter 6.25/10- I felt it could have been better paced . Would like a sequel but it doesn't look likely.

Spider man deserves more than a 5.5. It's better than any if the films in the previous trilogy combined. What did you find boring about it?

Better than 3 yes, but so is a heavy sack beating, better than 1 and 2? Nah :lol:

5.5 seems quite generous really.

The Amazing Spider-Man was the least memorable film I've seen in ages. Awful.
2>1>>>>3>>>>Amazing

Amazing is better than 3, but it's still poor. Or just very average anyway, a 5.

Bullet To The Head 3/10

3 better than Amazing?

The correct order for the Spiderman films is 2>1>Amazing>3

At least 3 had some character and identity, despite being rubbish.

Watched "Take Shelter" Last night.

Loved it. Thought the acting was amazing. Questions regarding the ending though.

I went on IMDB to get answers, and just ended up more confused.

8/10

Exactly, I thought Sandman was great, actually had some depth to his character. He should have been the main focal point, not Brock.

Brock
