    Robin Hood Prince of Thieves

    Campy. Overly long. A pale, pathetic version of the much better Ridley Scott effort.

    I love that movie. Have never been able to explain why.

    @Bones Wrong. It was a good movie about the a relatively charismatic loser. If nothing else, it maintained tension and was well shot.

    The Covenant by Guy Ritchie. I'm scratching my head about the hype around this. It started ok but then went to absolute shit. Some good acting but some ridiculous twists. Disappointing

    Also saw No Hard Feelings with Jennifer Lawerance this week and my @kruse review of it is:
    Titwatch - yes.

    Then the title should rather be "Hard Feelings"?

    Very easy on the eye

    That last sentence sounds like a lot of his movies, I'm not a great fan of the director, after his first 2 or so movies I think he improved his cinematography but ran out of ideas.

    @Machpants At first I thought this was just a beat up, but he did actually have the initial role, it appears there are a few different versions of events of why he left which the following article summarises..

    ..too much kick boxing on set, complained too much, broke the suit, too hot and passed out too much, not big enough to be the predator etc all seem plausible.

    Why Did Jean-Claude Van Damme Get Replaced in ‘Predator’?

    Why Did Jean-Claude Van Damme Get Replaced in ‘Predator’?

    The most-debated point in Jean-Claude Van Damme lore is why he left 'Predator.' Now the star finally speaks out.

    Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part 1

    If you don't like this type of movie don't go just to complain, go in knowing what you are going to get and you will enjoy it. American James Bond save the world format. For me not the best in the series and some action scenes for me crossed more into Fast and Furious type of set ups unfortunately. However there were still some slick Cruise moments as well...

    Overall a good set up for the sequel just not the best in the series, synopsis is in the score
