Seen the remake, Quarantine. The main lady (Dexter's sister from Dexter) was so annoying I couldn't actually wait for them to start chomping on her.

I love her - she's meant to be annoying!

I loved the movie too.

I am a movie monster at the moment... even after a night out I seem to be able to squeeze a movie in before bed! My sleeping (or lack of) is to blame!!

Tangled


An animation film based on the Grimm tale of Rapunzel (how close to the story I do not know... I don't think I've ever been told the tale of Rapunzel?! Must look this up!) Beau lady with gooooooooorgeously divine and magic powered hair is hidden in a tower for 18 years of her life and longs to leave and explore. She is forbidden though and spun a tale that the world beyond her window is a dangerous and frightful place she could not survive in. This all changes however, when a handsome young rogue discovers her and the tower when seeking to stow away from the kingdoms guards.

I needed a fluffy light fun film! Really liked this, was fun and humorous enough to emit a chuckle from me on the odd occasion! Very pretty and cutesy and just in general enjoyable! The horse in it... absolutely hilarious! I loved him! And the use of frying pans. Reminded me of my uni days

Not a mark on the likes of Despicable Me/Toy Story/Ice Age but really cute and bubbly.

7/10

Told you! Feeeeeeed meeeeeeeee mooooooooviiiiies!

Long day today outside and frollicking, so slightly sun kissed and warmed by the day I have relaxed and entertained myself with...

The Illusionist.

Oh. My. Good grief.

Brilliant. Utter joy for joy delightful film. Not one for romantics and dramas but this, this was fantastic. Edward Norton never lets me down.

Plot:
Peasant boy and upper class girl come together through the wonders of magic and a relationship blossoms, much to the dismay of her family. Through secret meetings they fall in love until one day their lives are pulled apart and he is left to travel the world whilst she is brought up in her rightful status. Their time together does not stop there and years on their paths cross when he performs an illusionary act within her home town to which she attends with her socially acceptable, but by no means perfect, husband to be - the Crown Prince.

Superb. My heart is suitably melted and I am entertained to a considerable elated state! I am happy. I feel like I have just digested a most sensational meal with all the trimmings yet remain comfortable and satisfied.

Plot line - very beautiful although somewhat predictable. I think the presentation eclipses the fact it is predictable. Gorgeously acted.

Definitely one to watch!

8.9/10

Fabness I may or may not be slightly in love with the illusionist that is Ed Norton

Machete



The highly skilled Federale Machete is hired by some unsavoury types to assassinate a senator. But just as he's about to take the shot, he notices someone aiming at him and realizes he's been set up. He barely survives the sniper's bullet, and is soon out for revenge on his former employers, with the reluctant assistance of his old friend Cheech Marin, who has become a priest and taken a vow of non-violence.

If you hire him to take out the bad guys, make sure the bad guys aren't you!

7/10
Thought this was marvouluse, needless killing with over the top blood reminded me of tarrintino. Ok story line but then it's a cheesy action film so what do you expect.

The Pianist
(I have issues pronouncing "Pianist". Complete brain malfunction. I'm saying it out aloud now and don't have a flipping clue if it's right or not. FAIL!)

Based on a true story this - the film follows the life of a professional Jewish pianist (Wladyslaw Szpilman) during World War II in Warsaw.

Very moving. Very very moving.

The way of the world back then just... renders me speechless.

I would say on parr with Schindler's List. Everyone should watch this film, words cannot express what emotions you go through when watching it.

10/10
