Am I going mental, or is it really from 2004?

I love it, it's gloriously silly, poignant to just the right amount and entertaining from beginning to end.

Nobel Son

This little gem I hadn't heard of until recently was very witty and captivating. It's a straight forward, who did it/what? kind of film starring Alan Rickman (sometimes forgot he plays an American character) and a few others. Essentially he's about to recieve a Nobel prize in Chemistry for work, that as it happens may not have been his. Not only that, but such a fact is intertwined with who his very own family are and his ruthless selfish, rude, obnoxious lifestyle.

The movie is well shot, and the score while good, is ever so slightly out of place and ultimately conveys a more MTV-esque kind of feel. It does however give the film a more light hearted approach and makes it a dark comedy. Well worth a watch.

7/10

Shutter

Pacey from Dawson's Creek is a newlywed photographer on his honeymoon when he and his wife appear to knock a girl down in the road. Unable to find any trace of her they carry on with the holiday... but when they get home they find some strange imperfections in the photos... oooooh!

Absolutely chock full of modern horror clichés, but on occasion genuinely unsettling when not relying on shock tactics. A couple of decent twists but nothing to shout about.

5/10

I watched sweeny Todd demon of fleet street (whatever its called) I really liked it, although I did get a bit confused as I wasn't paying full attention to it until 30mins or so into film.
I have it on sky+ so shall watch it again.

I'd give it a 7/10

Be Kind Rewind

Jack Black
Mos Def
Danny Glover

You've probably seen all the trailers with Jack Black and Mos Def remaking the films that Jack Black's character have erased. Yes, that is funny but it's not the whole story. The real story is actually quite sad and funny.

6/10

The Curious Case of Benjamin Button

Interesting concept but ultimately poorly delivered. It was far longer than it needed to be, some really good acting hidden away in there but i didn't care; i just wanted it to end.

6/10

Would have been 4 if it weren't for the top quality acting from the majority of the cast.

So the trailers I remember watching on TV and thinking "I quite fancy watching that" were five YEARS ago??
Holy crap.

Funnily enough, by a weird quirk of co-inky-dink, Sweeney Todd, was that last film I watched. Despite having to explain the end to Lom as she was distracted by other things, I really enjoyed it.

Also 7/10 on the Faysh-o-meter
