It's one of the few films I actually like him in. An appropriate level of goofiness for a man that's never experienced the real world. Usually any indication of his involvement in a film is enough to make sure I never watch it so it may well be I'm missing some awesome stuff.. but I really just can't stand his pratting around.

Have to agree with you. Apart from this and the Riddler, don't like any of his other stupid stuff.

Taken
Good 'easy' (as in simple to follow, not the content) film to watch. Some parts were a bit obvious and 'yeah right er ok...that conveniently happened' but altogether was an enjoyable watch

8/10

Agreed, once I saw the Mask, I sort of tired halfway through watching Liar Liar and Me, Myself & Irene.

However I do really like Carey, he's one of those versatile actors. He does well in Eternal Sunshine of a Spotless Mind and A Tale of Unfortunate Events.

Last film I watched was Fellowship of the Ring (again).

Simply put, great story, great cast, great effects, favourite ever film trilogy.

Quarantine

I'd heard this was good, a remake of the Spanish REC. Caught most of it on Sky. It was tripe.

3/10

Jaws

Never seen it before...
Some nice dark comedy. Can't wait for Spielberg to go back and digitally remove all the nasty stuff and replace it with marshmallows and candyfloss, and replace the shark with a really crap CGI version.

8/10
