<p>I had the pleasure of watching "Leon: The Professional" last night. Even now, 21 years on, it's a brilliant movie, with 3 awesome performances by the leads. </p>

<p>Luc Besson seemed like he may have been headed for greatness with this movie....</p> -

<p>That was the first time Rose Byrne gave me a horn.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Watched Love & Mercy last night. Story about Brian Wilson from the Beach Boys. Good cast with John Cusack, Elizabeth Banks and Paul Giamatti. </p>

<p>Rose Byrne staring into the camera is awe inspiring in this movie. She is still bloody awesome too.</p> -
Mad Max - Fury Road<br>
Kinda slow, needed more action tbh, bit of a chick flic/rom com..<br><br>
Just fucken insane, agree with previous comments, was more about Furiosa than Max<br><br>
10.5/10 -

<p>Its because i enjoy slow paced chick flics/rom coms ;)</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I guess my original post was too subtle!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>It was a fucken mad movie, i recommend checking out the behind the scenes stuff, its insane the trouble they went to with the stunts and creating of the cars.</p> -
<p>I loved Max. Saw it on the big screen, the storm sequence alone worth the price of admission, as close to the feeling of tripping on acid as I've seen in a cinema in a long time. </p>

<p>I thought it was damned average! Even Charlize didnt help it, which is saying somethign! </p>

<p>Agreed, it lived up to the trailer for me, which I thought was shite and others were raving about.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>You're not allowed to say you don't like it in Oz - I made that mistake, although I was at a party with a number of people who worked for one of the effects companies' when I said it, which was kinda dumb.</p> -
<p>I didn't like the trailer, was dragged to the movie, farkin' loved it.</p>

<p>Ah crap, now I can't say it in Wellington either.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Saw The Gift last night. It's one of those old school thrillers about a couple who bump into an old school classmate of the male who turns out to be a bit off. Was pretty decent.</p> -

<p>I thought the gift was the one where Katie Holmes got the girls out..</p> -
<p>I watched Pixels last night, and I can only think that man the critics must really hate Adam Sandler. All the reviews of it have been shit but I actually found it to be quite good. It's pretty funny and has lots of nostalgia factor for people who like old school video games and grew up in the 80s. It was just fun and as evidenced from the laughing throughout most normal people who see it actually think the same thing.</p>
-
<p>There does seem to be a bit of Adam Sandler hate around. I watched Click again the other night - that's a pretty funny movie. Plus the wife does have a smoking hot body as Christopher Walken alludes to a few times.</p>
-
<p>the wife? The wife was Kate Beckinsale, my biggest criticism of that movie is WTF would you fast forward any part of your life with her in it?</p>

<p>I would fast forward all the parts that didn't involve me and her being naked. </p>
