Too much TV rots your brai... never mind.

Cloud Atlas? What was it all about
Almost three hours and still clueless....confused about the links? If any..

The return of Victor Crowley.

If you like a (fair) bit of splatter...I think you'll like this. I thought it was hilarious in parts. Maybe I'm not well.

8/10

Saw this the other night, was a damn good laugh. Would recommend it to anyone who is bored with the cookie cutter Hollywood crap

I think viewers of that one fall into two main categories, people who don't have fuck all idea what went on, and people who reckon they do to try and sound superior to the first group.

Wasn't a bad movie, but reckon if the links were a bit more solid, the movie would have been too.

transformers 3, astoundingly shit. and they swapped hottie for australian slag, wtf up with that? glad i didn't pay to see it.

t2, average, kinda tedious and doesn't fucking add anything to the story, really, but had some humor to punctuate the tedium.

but man, i hear those cisco routers are the shit! and budweiser light! coo ee, making a man thirsty...

Jack Ryan - Shadow Recruit.

Good in the sense it's not filled with OTT stunts. Bad in that it's completely predictable, and no I didn't read the book. Meh, 6/10 at best.

Robocop 8/10. Not as "dark" as the original, but similar to Total Recall it departed from the original story and did it well. There's the odd few laughs in it and I can imagine it won't be for everyone, but I enjoyed it enough to come away happy that I'd seen it.

Now this is a movie that will stimulate your grey matter. Worth a second, and probably third, look.

'the wickerman' last night.
I love movies without happy endings.

The time travellers wife. Too.

that the one with french rapists and shit?
I dont mind a bit of jewviolence, if it adds something to the story. But if its used as a crutch for the whole movie, then no.

It's about a child protection unit in Paris...one of the best films I've seen in fucking years. Well worth the watch.

'Ill manors' shits fucked mate, if you're into gangster movies like 'the departed' then this is the one. True gangster movie, some nasty, nasty shit going on but you will respect it for what it is and what its trying to acheive.
