Cowboys and Aliens (2011)
Also stars Han Solo. He tries to be the gruff baddie.
Aren't the Aliens the baddies?

Watched a b-grade movie called Mayhem, with Glen from TWD and a tidy chick called Samara Weaving (another Home and Away export according to IMDB)
Anywhoo, on a day when 'Glen' a lawyer in a huge firm is blamed for buggaring something up for thier biggest client, a virus that removes peoples inhibitions and act on any impulses somehow causes the building to be locked down for the 8 hours the virus lives for; chaos and mayhem ensues!
Was good fun!

Morris from America: Funny little comedy-drama movie about a black kid who has moved to Germany as his dad is a soccer coach (the dad is Craig Robinson aka the Pontiac Bandit to B99 fans, and the black guy in Hot Tub Time Machine, This is the End, and in lots of Apatow movies) and it's about how he's trying to fit in. The conversations between the dad and the kid are funny, and the cultural differences, and the drama is ok too. A lot of the story is about his friendship (and he wants more) with a German girl and his rapping. 4 Black American Soccer player out 5 Ice Cube Juniors.
Before watching this tried to watch Better Watch Out, an Xmas horror about a babysitter and the boy she's looking after - it was such unmitigated shit that we turned it off after 20 minutes. It didn't even have a hot enough babysitter to keep watching. My mate decided to finish watching it later that day and how the story played out sounded ok, but I doubt I'll ever finish it because that 20 minutes was so shit.

Still the best movie ever fuckin made.

Ha! We all just watched it as well. Was nearly going to watch last night but went for Princess Bride as our Classic of the night so it was great to see it appear on tele tonight.
I love the little 'Easter egg' details scattered throughout. Like how Marty originally meets Doc at the Twin Pines shopping mall but at the end it is the Lone Pine.

@MajorRage @Crucial both fantastic movies. Introduced my boys to both of them recently, both were hits.

Too bold to name it the best ever but definitely the best of its kind if that makes sense.

Amazing film, but I am admittedly biased, I’ve always been a big Tonya Harding fan. One of best sports films ever made. Not sure how wide a release, but it’s out now.

Jungle - supposedly based on a true story of an Israeli backpacker Yossi Ghinsburg who goes missing in the Amazon after a trek for lost gold goes awry.
Harry Potter plays the main role of Yossi, and despite most other roles I have seen him in outside of Harry Potter, Radcliffe hasnt really sold it to me, but felt he did a good job in this, and also lost a shit load of weight for the role as well.

The Founder. Pretty sad story really and Holdo is even more annoying in this. 7 hamburgers out of 10 cheeseburgers.
Gold. Based upon the true story of the Bre-x mining scandal. Pretty neat tale with McConaughey doing a damned good Harrelson. 7.5 saltings out of 10 ounces.
