Law Abiding Citizen. Fist 3/4 excellent final 1/4 ridiculous.<br />
<br />
5/10<br />
<br />
The princess and the frog. 2D is so retro.... Not bad but certainly not great. A typical Disney song-a-thon. Kids loved it but otherwise completely forgettable.<br />
<br />
6/10<br />
<br />
Orphan. Not one I will watch ever again but very good horror/thriller. Well paced, well acted especially the tween star and unnerving.<br />
<br />
8/10 -
yeah Orphan was quite a creepy film, but pretty good!! One in a similar vein, Case 39 (I think it is called, with Sandra Bullock) although supernatural<br />
<br />
I thought LAC was awesome, aside form the shitty end! <br />
<br />
Now I know that as a book, where the Wild Things are is much loved and revered (not a big fan myself) and having not read it for years, thought maybe I'd see if I liked it in film....still not a fan, pretty average. -

Ha,saw that too!<br />
<br />
makes you wonder just how these decision makers get jobs at a movie studio -
Saw Inception last night and it really is a must see. It's a bit like the Matrix, but way better I reckon. Acting was good except for the girl from Juno who I thought was pretty average. Movie keeps you guessing all the way through and really is edge of the seat stuff. 9.5/10

I love Ghostbusters and now so do my kids. That movie just gets better with age. -
"I'm Kick-Ass, and I'm not gay."<br />
<br />
Might have been my fave line of dialogue from Kick-Ass, which I finally saw last night (released onto DVD yesterday). <br />
<br />
I have a few quibbles with some of the soundtrack selection, and Nic Cage overdoes it in a few places, but overall I loved it, give it 9/10 and reckon it's one of the best comic-book adaptations ever put to screen. There was an authenticity, heart & sense of humour that surprised me.<br />
<br />
<br />
(Caution: as far as comicbook superhero movies go, this one is definitely [U][I]NOT[/I][/U] for the kids, it's made for adult audiences, with heaps of violence and sexual innuendo.) -
In a welcome to last week moment, I just found out that the Nolan brothers have been given Superman to sort out. Jonathon is writing the screenplay and is rumored to direct, and Christopher is producing.<br />
<br />
Comments about how to approach it for a modern, post 9/11 world. Interesting. Those guys nailed Batman, and from their comments so far seem to understand the characters really well. -

I talked to Ernie Hudson (the black GB) back in March at a Comic-Con, he was in his Ghost-Buster costume and he told me the cast was a done-deal - that Akroyd, Harold Ramis, Bill Murray (and possibly even Sigourney) were excited about doing the movie, but he said (and Akroyd later confirmed on radio) that it is dependent upon a good script. Bill Murray is especially loathe to fart in a bag on this one, he wants a good movie. So as long as there's a good script in the works, it's looking good there'll be the long-awaited sequeal. -

Great stuff, the sequel in '89 kinda sucked balls.<br />
<br />
Be great if they could improve vastly on that.<br />
<br />
Ernie Hudson was in another fav movie of mine, The Crow
