You're a better Dad than me TR, NO WAY would I ever want to sit through shit like that ! <br />

Still by the time MN5 jr is old enough I'm sure he'll be keen to go to one of the inevitable sequels.....<br />

was between that, and Up, sadly due to him getting a Guinea Pig for his birthday, G-Force won, as I have heard Up is superb.

Took the kids to the 3D version and can report ..take your kids before its gone! Excellent movie. -
Funny People with Adam Sandler, Seth Rogen etc...<br />
<br />
Really strong first hour then it fades. Hard.<br />
<br />
The stand up comedy is really good, apparently the Director got them to write their own material. Sandler is really starting to get some good roles these days... wonder when/if we'll get Happy Gilmore 2 - The Tigers Tale!<br />
<br />
First half = 8/10<br />
Second half = 3/10 -

Yeah, it went from being an interesting funny film, to quite forumulaic.<br />
<br />
Would have been better if [spoiler:280ukmgi]Sandler had died instead of getting better[/spoiler:280ukmgi] -
Saw the Soloist the other night. Really strong performances from Robert Downy Jr and Jamie Foxx and a true story. I say story, but it's more of a slice of life deal. Very good portrayal of mental illness on screen though, very disorientating at times.<br />
<br />
Oscar bait written all over it though, which can be a bit trying. -

ipod mate, plus a 1 hour kip thats how I get through some of the really bad ones. (wife won't let me use the same strategy at school concerts) -
In the Loop - promoted as the funniest British comedy in years. Which I guess might be the case if you think hearing someone say fluffybunny a lot is side splitting<br />
<br />
Save yrself $15 and go to one of those insullt generating web sites as thats the one piece of humour in the movie - one of the characters rants well but talk about tiresome.<br />
<br />
3/10 -

I am normally a fan of Sandler, but alot of his movies follow that formula; very funny first half, weak through to the last 5 or 10. -
(500) Days of Summer. A romantic comedy/drama about a guy who falls in love at first sight with a girl who doesn't believe in love. The film is presented in a non linear fashion, and hops around in random order through various events of their courtship. One of the better flick I have seen this year (along with The Hurt Locker).

Year One; Jack Black, Michael Cera<br />
<br />
plus a host of other b list actors. <br />
<br />
Had it's moments, but for the large part, pretty average 5.5/10 -
Sean is a dead set legend and a guy I'd love to meet someday but it can't be denied he has been in some absolute shitters of movies. <br />
