Taxi Driver. Everyone knows its regularly called one of the best of all time,

I just didn't see it. Found it a little stupid to be honest.

Saw "UP" on DVD - what a brilliant animation. No kids film this. I though it was a quite sad - but what wonderful writing. Highly recommended.

Went to see The Wolfman on Sunday. Very romantic Valentines Day eh? Found it quite enjoyable but a bit predictable. Worth seeing especially if you like a bit of blood.

I saw The Marine 2 today. A stock standard Action flick, but it does feature some very nice cinematography.

Starring John Cena again or have they gone downmarket? :wink:
Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down.

I went and saw it on Tuesday. I was surprised it wasn't as bad as I was expecting.

Just got home from seeing Shutter Island. Really enjoyed this one. Storyline was good with lots of twists and turns. Acting was A+. Whoever knew Leonardo would grow up to be a decent actor?

9/10

Saw a French movie called A Prophet. The film magazines raved about it, but it did little for me. Well-acted and shot, and all that, but the gangster/prison genre leaves me a little cold. Check it out if you enjoyed The Godfather or Scorsese films.

I just saw Moon with Sam Rockwell. It's pretty darn good.
