<p>My guess is that some female (other than his wife) got her tits out :)</p> -
I'm a sucker for an underdog sports movie. <br><br>
Its funny, it hits you in the feels (fucking dusty airplanes) and it's a great story well told (real or not). It's just well done. -
Aside from Eddie? No tits. <br><br>
In fact it's hot girl-less -
<p>Yeah, Eddie the Eagle is just a good fun movie, that kid from The Kingsman is a bloody good actor.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I saw Bad Neighbours 2 the other night. Basically every review of it was negative, but in the first half especially it was bloody funny.</p> -

Bad Neighbours 2 has to be up there with the most unnecessary sequels of all time. Dumb and Dumber 2 if probably the winner. -

<p>I enjoyed my 90 minutes so it wasn't unnecessary for me. </p> -

<p>Best kiwi movie I've seen, Curtis puts on an incredible performance. </p> -
Saw Ted 2 the other day. Thought it was way better then the original - seemed a lot more like Seth's writing with lots of funny one liners.

<p><em>Battleship</em></p>
<p> </p>
<p>Mindless, gibbering, macho U-S-A! U-S-A! fun. I had to miss parts of it due to domestic duties, but it didn't matter. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>There is nothing more awesomely stupidly awesome than seeing someone pulling the naval equivalent of a handbrakey with a 45,000 ton WW2 battleship, before slamming a full broadside into an alien submathingy.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Beautiful, sweet, giving-no-fucks madness.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I give it 5 ridiculous plot lines out of 5, because it had approximately zero.</p> -
<p>Went to see Eddie the Eagle, lots of heart warming amusement, very enjoyable film</p>
<p> </p>
<p>13 Hours, Secret Soldiers of Benghazi...supposedly based on a true story, but with Michael Bays direction, me thinks there were alot of liberties taken, plenty of US bravado...that being said, I did like it, plenty of guuns, explosions a bit of tension and being a true story I just knew Optimus Prime wasnt gonna save the day this time! </p> -

I love that film . It's just stupid and doesn't pretend to anything but. <br><br>
Also if all physios were that hot they'd be very very very busy. -

I'm keen to see 13 hours, the timing of the release sucks for Hillary Clinton. -

<p>I love the "Have you ever seen a movie with a black guy in it? That's him"</p> -
<p><em>Super</em></p>
<p> </p>
<p>This is a little film with Rainn Wilson (US version of <em>The Office</em>) and the delightful Ellen Page.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>It was kind of shit at parts, showing its production values, but overall I thought it was a great look into the mind of a guy who is a social numpty and finally just has enough of taking shit. Page was just a fucking psycho. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Easy to see why they had trouble getting money and/or distribution help with this one, but I thought it was OK. They had no trouble getting a few names together, and it was shot in about a month I believe? Not a bad effort. Certainly has the ability to be a bit cult.</p>

<p>3 Kevin Bacons out of 5.</p> -
<p>A Tom Cruise trio.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Days of Thunder: dull as dishwater, even the racing stuff. Shit plotline that tried to be Top Gun-esque, but failed in every way.</p>
<p>Vanilla Sky: Penelope Cruz was hot, but I'm not really a Cameron Diaz fan, and Tom's character was such a smarmy asshat I maybe cheered when he plummeted off the bridge.</p>
<p>Collateral: By far the best of the three. Tom was actually quite a good villain, and Jamie Foxx bounced off him well. Decent plot too.</p>
