Film's you've seen today

Equilibrium - It was okay. Christian Bale was really good, though. Decent concept for a movie, but some if it wasn't executed well enough (Taye Diggs, in particular).

We need to talk about Kevin

Deeply unsettling stuff. Outstanding performances throughout and superbly made by Lynne Ramsey. This one is going to be with me for weeks I think!

Green lantern - too much CGI all the bits in space just looked like a not very good computer game.

Dead Set - the charlie brooker zombie thing, E4 showed it as a feature length version on saturday. Really enjoyed it.

Inception - Once this movie starts playing, it's hard to not sit back and watch, sooooo good. Any time I run over to my parents' house to do laundry, I turn on their cable and it's on. That being said, the movie is brilliant.

Bronson - Nicholas Winding Refn's movies are so fun to watch, he reminds me of Kubrick but he's got his own style, too. And Tom Hardy's performance is great. To anyone who is hesitant on how he will be as Bane in "The Dark Knight Rises," watch this.

Super 8seemed like an attempt at a new version of the goonies, shit ending.

The Inbeetweeners Movie - good, just like a long episode. Needed more Greg Davis

Rise of the planet of the apes - good, but the ending seemed a bit weak and the villains of the piece were a bit to pantomime,

Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows - Good, much the same as the first but a but funnier.

The Black Swan- I saw were this was going as soon as Mila Kunis appeared but it was still surprisingly enjoyable. Natalie Portman deserves whatever awards she received for her performance.

Third Star - dull and depressing.

let me in - I wish I'd watched the swedish original instead.

Easy A - amusing teen comedy

Friends with benefits - funny in places, sadly not kunis' bare ass.

Pirates of the Carribean - On Stranger Tides - Not quite hitting the highs of the first 3 films, but more than watchable. Johnny Depp is born to play that role & had me laughing just with the walk & manerisms at times. Especially liked the twist on the mermaids.

Gangster No 1. set in the late 60's and the late 90's. following the rise and eventual fall of a power hungry criminal. Starring Paul Bettany, David Thewlis and the always great (in my eyes anyway), Malcom Mc Dowell. One of my favourite gangster films. Plus its english too. Also a nice small role from Andrew Linclon (walking dead) as a psychotic right hand man of the opposing mob. Great film.

Avengers - amazing, everything I wanted!

Mission Impossible 4 - shit.

Harold and Kumar 3 - ok, suffered from being heavily 3d and being watched in 2d.

40 year old virgin - first time I've seen it in years, first time I've noticed Elizabeth Banks, Jonah Hill and Kat Dennings in it.

shows how long it's been...wouldn't have known the last time!

Prometheus

Massively disappointing.

Avengers Assemble

Absolutely incredible and I usually dislike these kind of films.

Tyrannosaur. Not about dinosaurs. Took me until the end credits to realise this. Was desperately hoping that a Tyrannosaurus Rex would show up and eat Olivia Colman's abusive husband. Didn't happen. One Jurassic Park reference, that's it. No actual velociraptors. Lack of dinosaurs aside, great film.

Replace more with something and thats my review. Some of the writing would embarrass the writers of Hollyoaks.

The Dark Knight Rises

Despite a fairly convuluted plot. this is everything you could ask for and more.

I don't think people would have accepted anything less than a convoluted plot to end the trilogy.

I loved it from start to finish and I'll probably go again at the weekend to try to pick up on anything I missed. I'm seeing a lot of negative remarks on other sites on really small things but that's the nature of the beast/internet

I thoroughly enjoyed it. I wasn't bored for a single minute during the movie... I even preferred it to the The Dark Knight (quite possibly due to the lack of "Rachel" in this one).

Tom Hardy stole the show each time he was on screen, his Bane was incredible. And the ending was fantastic.

I agree.
