[quote name='MajorRage']Killers - Kutcher/Heigl.<br />
<br />
Don't. Some good shots at the start of France, but other than that, it's an unfunny comedy, poor action action film with an ok plot, but with the worlds most predictable "twist" at the end. I'd give it a solid 2/10. And that's only because Heigl's Mum is hilarious. Without her, it's a 1.[/QUOTE]<br />
<br />
Now this is one where I cannot understand why anyone would watch it. -
cos your wife made you?....thankfully, even she thought it was sh!t....

[quote name='LAKiwi']Knight and Day - Really enjoyed it.<br />
Typical role for Cruise - and he carries it off well. Thought there was nice chemistry between him and Diaz.[/QUOTE]<br />
I just watched that last night and I quite enjoyed it as well. Cruise seemed like he playing up his bouncing on the couch effort.<br />
<br />
Also recently watched The Tourist which was ok, my love of Depp (in a completely non homosexual way) triumphed over my hatred of Angelina Jolie (also in a non homosexual way). Storyline was so-so and I figured out the plot in about 10 minutes, but enjoyable nonetheless. -

<br />
Yeah - he plays the over-the-top spy character quite well.<br />
Haven't seen the Tourist yet but will. Like both Depp and Jolie. -
I took mini-Mariner to Megamind over the holiday period. I thought it was excellent, i laughed a heap. Megamind's Brando "space dad" is funny as shit. Will Farrell was made to do voice-over work.
-
"love and other drugs", I enjoyed it. Both Jake and Anne were decent and it was funny at times... oh, and Anne is very nice to look! Parody of the American drug market running in the background was amusing and who wouldn't want to revisit the 90's!!? Didn't get a great rating at rotten tomatoes though.

Scott Pilgrim Vs the world: One of the zaniest films I have seen in a while and probably the first movie to successfully use the video game concept (unlike say, Tron). Love the special effects, music and off-beat humour.<br />
Knives Chau is the best character, especially her surprised face <img src='http://www.daimenhutchison.com/invision/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/ohmy.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':lol:' />.<br />
<br />
9/10<br />
<br />
Inception: After hearing all the hype I watched this highly regarded film. Very good but not as mind-blowing as I expected it to be. The ending does leave you puzzled to some extent however.<br />
<br />
7.5/10, actually maybe, 8/10. -
Four Lions: This movie was bloody funny - for anyone who doesn't know it's about 4 Muslim jihadists from the UK (one white guy) and their attempts to blow themselves and other people up. Due to the subject matter it does stray into black comedy in parts but has some of the funniest laugh out loud comedy that I have seen. 9/10.<br />
<br />
Salt: After finding Angelina not as annoying as usual in the Tourist I decided to watch Salt. Was presently surprised, was an ok movie, which could have been better with a longer running time and without the obvious sequel set up. 7/10. -

I went (at the request of Mrs CF) in with no expectations and got a light but enjoyable film. Depp is Depp and Ang was smoking hot. Even though it didn't really scratch far below the surface it was a bit of gentle escapism -
If someone has seen the latest "Wall St" movie, can they tell me what its about? I don't think it had a plot, other than "bankers are baaaaaad" "and "people don't change, but then sometimes they do" <br />
<br />
Took mini-mariner to "Yogi Bear" yesterday. Its terrible, but the kids loved it. I forgive him though, he's 2. -
Watched Prince Of Persia yesterday . Fairly predictable but still bloody enjoyable , will watch it again . 7 out of 10 .
