Im a bit reluctant to say this, not a fan of Rom coms at all, but I found the "The 5 year engagement" enjoyable.  Some awkward humour which was funny.  Interested to see what some of you film buffs think.  Again I state, these sort of films are not usaully my cup of tea
Looking forward to the new bond film as well.

It didn't make me want to scratch my eyes out. . . about as big a compliment as I can pay a Romcom

You won't like it. Lots of shooting and stuff.

Saw Untouchable last night, French movie about a rich quadriplegic being cared for by a young man from the banlieues. Plenty of laughs and moves along nicely. Been a huge boxoffice success around Europe. 8/10

Saw What Richard Did last night. Not massively impressed........ maybe I expected too much on the basis of the reviews.
Very unusual casting for the main character's father................... an old face from a boxset .

[The Iceman]

Watched a film called "Red Lights" with DeNiro, Sigourney and Killian Murphy - good show now have to say - wasn't expecting it to be so enjoyable - nice twists.

Saw Skyfall over weekend, all the hype and reviews followed by a great start only flattered to deceive as the pace slackened off (inevitably I suppose) and the ending neither truely satisfied nor made me hungry to see more. 7/10.

Seen it last night, thought it was the worst Bond film I've ever seen. A couple of things pissed me off at the beginning of the film and they just kept on adding up and by the time I got to the end I couldn't wait to stop watching it. Casino Royale was a brilliant script and although they fucked up Quantum of Solace I actually believe this is worse. I could name at least 20 problems with the film but I just start with one, the "Welcome to Scotland" line. Jesus, how can a script as cutting and smooth as Casino Royale revert to shit like this.

Watched Intermission again last night, I'd forgotten how good it is.

Agreed, thought it was awful. If not for Javier Bardem, it would have been utter drivel.

Catching up on a few taped films and watched '3.10 to Yuma'.
Thought it was class. Didnt particularly like Cristian Bale in the Batman films, this suited him a lot more.

Christian Bale is the best Batman there has been, tremendous actor and performances as Batman.

Are you related to him Stew? A very defensive post there! Its only an actor and a film, and my humble opinion man!

Went to see Skyfall last night. Liked it a lot - solid 8.5/10.

Any criticism of cliches in a Bond film seems strange. Thin line behind a cliche and the Bond formula of girls, guns, gadgets, big opening sequence, over the top villains, cheesy one-liners, cars, casinos, money shots for Omega etc. etc. Any director knows they have to work any film around the formula.

Went to see Skyfall last night - loved it
