    <p>Legend was good, a bit long, Hardy was great though. I really don't like the female lead, there is something about her that annoys me so I wasn't really invested in her character so some of the story beats were missed on me.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>I don't rate it as highly as dk does - it's behind The Martian and Black Mass of recent movies.</p>

    <p>I haven;t seen Martian yet and I have high expectations that it will be great as well</p>

    The Martian was great. I've been a fan of the book for ages, so much so I made my wife read it too. <br><br>
    Movie was about as good as they could have done it, obviously most of the detail drops out. May even be worth reading the book first.

    <p>I've missed that boat now, might leave it 6 months or so before reading the book. </p>

    <p>Terminator Genisys - lets milk this franchise for all its worth...bit of a mind fuck with additional character time travel crossing lines of travel in previous movies<br><br>
    That said it was ok..was waiting for dragons to appear though.</p>

    Watched Ant Man tonight. Not bad for a superhero franchise. A few laughs a few bits that didn't make sense and a few cheesy bits. Paul Rudd makes another varied personality I wonder if he'll make an avengers movie.

    <p>Watched Jurassic World on the weekend. Great fun. Best monster fight ever! Yes it's stupid as hell, but jesus, it's about a park full of dinosaurs created in a lab, it's not like it's marketed as a gritty thriller. </p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Chris Pratt is an excellent action star. Charisma, a jaw line, and a sense of humour. Awesome. Him riding a motorbike flat chat through a jungle, at night, hunting a giant hybrid dino-monster, using his trained raptors, may just about be the coolest thing i have ever seen.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>BDH isn't too shabby looking in this either, her rack looks fantastic. </p>

    <p>I'm torn between that and the raccoon firing a machine gun in his last movie. The fact he had trained velociraptors running along side him probably tips it though.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Also sales of marlin 45/70 lever action guide guns has increased since then. My son has been saying "can we get one dad, please?". I mean look at that thing.</p>

    Inside Out. Thought it was excellent, if a little emotional at times! Very clever idea for a movie.
