Crank

Completely a "leave your brain at the door" type film which is great. Apart from nearly choking with laughter at one point, which wasn't so great :-)

8/10

The American President

I don't know how many times I've seen this film but I love it all the same. And after watching The West Wing, it was interesting to see how many people appear in the film that appear in the series. And the same scene decorator did both.

Anyway, I'd give it a 8/10.

He's Just Not That Into You

I'm not a huge fan of romantic soppy films as they're not my ideal type of time to spend submerged within a movie.

However, like a few others e.g. Love Actually, this is quite witty, it has a good score and the cast (Barrymore, Affleck, Aniston, little man from Entourage) do really well. Enjoyable Sunday evening movie.

From the few times I've done something wrong in a past life and have had to endure Desperate House Wives or Sex in the City, I can see similarities in this film. Fans of both sitcoms will enjoy this I reckon.

5.5/10

I know what you mean, his comedy voice is just high pitched and gratey. When he popped into the film I reviewed above I didn't have high hopes, but when he acts normally he's pretty good.

I saw this initially at the cinema and really enjoyed it. So I rented it the other day thinking I'd really enjoy it.......wow it was like two different films
Huge sign of my mental state the first time round I think, as the second time I thought it was far too girly and cheesy

Bradley Cooper = hot though but probably not very relevant for you

Adam Sandler's not in it though so not sure who you've got confused with him there!
