The Hangover: A film about a bunch of guys who go to Las Vegas for a stag night, end up getting wasted, and losing the groom, and backtracking their night to find out what happened. I thought it wasn’t really very good – though it had some funny moments in it. The characters were just […]

Film: Blades of Glory (2007)
Blades of Glory: What complete silliness, but good fun. Two olympic ice skating champions who do not get on, end up being a pairs team because that’s the only way they can get back in to the game after being banned. Silly comedy, my kind of fun. I give it 7/10
Film: 50 First Dates (2004)
50 First Dates: I assumed this would be a super silly film, with Adam Sandler being in it. It was admittedly very cheesy and silly in parts, but nowhere near as bad as I thought. An enjoyable romantic comedy. I give it 7/10 http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0343660/50 Fi
Behind Enemy Lines (2001)
Behind Enemy Lines: A fairly standard action fare. Owen Wilson plays a pilot who is shot down over enemy territory, and has to escape to a safe zone. It gets a bit too American, especially near the end – sickeningly so. But, parts of the film are quite good. The action is quite good too, […]
Film: Flightplan (2005)
Flightplan: I am biased – I tend to like films with Jodie Foster in, so even if this film was completely and utterly pants, I’d probably think it was good, purely because she was in it. However, after watching this film about two weeks ago, I’m still in two minds. The story was a bit […]
Film: Pixar Shorts (2007)
Pixar Shorts: Okay, not strictly a film. A collection of shorts from the early days of Pixar, through to present day. I found it very interesting to see how the technology progressed, and how the company focus moved from hardware, through to animation. I think it has to be watched along with the documentary part […]
Film: Phone Booth (2002)
Phone Booth: A waste of time. The acting was actually pretty good, but the story. Oh my goodness. I give it 2/10.
Film: The Wild (2006)
The Wild: A fairly lame Disney cartoon. It was about a lion cub, who couldn’t roar, so he was being a brat, and managed to get taken away from the zoo. The other zoo animals and his dad go after him. And all is happy in the end. It was dull as anything, the funny […]
Film: Good Luck Chuck (2007)
Good Luck Chuck: Very silly, relatively formulaic romantic comedy. Girls think that a guy has a lucky charm, and that if they are with him, then the next person they meet, they’ll fall in love with, and marry. This guy is a fairly normal guy, works as a dentist, and has a friend who is […]
Film: The Pursuit of Happyness (2006)
The Pursuit of Happyness: Yes, I know it’s spelt wrong. It seems to be spelt that way on IMDB and on Lovefilm, so I’m going with it, as it was probably done on purpose – considering the spelling of happiness was mentioned in the film itself… Anyway – a good movie, I think. It kept […]
