Se7en is also outstandingly good and brilliantly acted by the best actor on the planet, Morgan Freeman. The Usual Suspects is good, but you can see the ending coming a mile off.

It's just one of those movies that pretty much everyone raves about.
In fact, I'm not sure how I've managed to avoid seeing it, lol.

Watched "The Fall" last night. -> http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0460791/

Not sure who recommended it to me last night but quite a visually epic film, worth getting in blu-ray goodness if possible.

It's a very weird story, and very much arty. The guy who made it budgeted it himself. Worth a watch.

It has such a stunning cast too, even outside of the obvious DeNiro and Pacino headline, such as Val Kilmer, Ashley Judd, Jon Voight, Dennis Haysbert, Tom Sizemore and Natalie Portman. It's just 3 hours and maintains a constant fast pace. I love it

Mamma Mia

8.5/10

Charming film, great fun especially to sing along too. Wish I'd seen this at the cinema with loads of Abba fans, would be great.
-1 point for the start, both Lana and I thought the start felt a little off, first song and all didn't start things well.
-0.5 for Pierce's voice. Love his acting and all, good voice too, but not suited to the songs he sang.

You're preaching to the converted, mate, and I haven't avoided watching it I have just never got around to it as yet.

Can I take a time out to swoon over Ms.Portman though?

/yummy.

Not so much in Heat because she's barely a teenager

I was thinking more "Star Wars" and less "Leon".

The Godfather *on Bluray*

Do I need to write anymore?

Transfer and restoration is magnificent and I prefer the original to Part II.

Pirates Of The Caribbean: At World's End

Starring

Johnny Depp
Geoffrey Rush
Orlando Bloom
Keira Knightly

Piratical romp

7/10 Nowhere near as bad as number two but not actually as good as the first either. I'm happy that I can tick it off as a film watched but I can't see myself going out of my way to ever watch it again despite some funny lines.

Hitman

Thought it was going to be rubbish but it had a half-decent plot, and Timothy the Elephant was actually good as the eponymous character despite my reservations. There were also norks.

7/10

Magnum Force

Great movie - Eastwood at his sneering best. Slightly lacklustre ending but an engaging plot.

8/10
