Seen about half of that the other night mate!
Its excellent the way its made,i mean how well the animation looks..must have taken a hell of a lot of work.But it just did'nt seem to work for me.I think they should have just stuck with real actors.
Still gonna watch the rest of it cause I wanna see what happens though!

Oh yeah, I cant disagree with the animation, that part was really well made, its just the rest that was disappointing. I thought this was going to be the Resident Evil type version of Advent Children but it wasnt. Shame.

finally caught Iron Man, loved every minute, except for the end cameo, is he in EVERYTHING???
Almost faultless film though for what it was trying to do and Downey Jnr shows yet again how versatile he is as a top actor.

It's anything but... It's actually one of the best comic adaptions I've seen. Far better than hulk, xmen or spiderman. But Downey is one my top actors ever (so is norton but when was his last decent film???)
Plus, can't go wrong with Paltrow and Terence Howard has been the one to watch for the past few years.

I know its not new, but I dont think its to old maybe wrong. But did you ever see that Norton film where he played a special man. And worked as a cleaner for some company, only to go and rob them. He wasnt retarded it was all an act into making people believe he couldnt pull anything like that off.

That was a decent movie, but as you say I cant remember the last flick he was in, brilliant actor !

He was class in that, but the movie sucked (De Niro, Brando and Norton and it sucked? yes it did). He was good in the Illusionist but the Prestige stole all that thunder.

That's going back 10 years though, can he stil be classed as great if its been a decade since his last decent role? Yes, 25th Hour 2002, exceptional in that as well. He just seems to make bizarre choices
and he was fine in Hulk, it's just not a very good idea for a film, will always look too cartoony

Saw the trailer when I went and saw Quantum of Bourne outtakes action scenes and wasnt overly impressed by it and Im normally a sucker for remade sci fi classics .

Mind you its apparently topped  the US Box office this weekend

Ricky Gervais - Ghost Town.

I like Ricky Gervais but was a tad disappointed with this movie. much of the script was obviously conceived to exploit his dry and cynical humour and yet fell disappointingly short of the mark. Lots of smiles but no real laugh out loud moments. 6/10 if you DL'd it 3/10 if you actually bought a ticket to see it.   :D

Caught eagle eye a couple of nights ago . Shia lebeouf is certainly going to be a top actor in the future , he played his role in transformers well and eagle eye as well . Thought it was a good show and certainly worth a download . 8/10

Gran Torino - Clint Eastwood.

Maybe not the best movie of the year but certainly one of my favourites. Clint back in top form as an old guy p'issed of with the world and his neighbourhood in particular. Think Grumpy old Man meets Rambo  :D

Gran Torino Trailer

8/10

:)

Finally got around to see Tropic Thunder and Rise of the Footsoldier

Obviously two movies poles apart but I enjoyed both the Stiller comedy and the gritty British gangster flick
